Eat fresh and organic foods, tone muscle and return home with a golden tan. You will be a different person when you return home. Lauren Polivka, NicaFit Retreats founder & a very well-known physical therapist to many ATL area CrossFitters (including Kelly Becker), will be setting up a NicaFit Retreats table at CFM on Saturday, April 12 to provide info, answer questions, etc from 9:30am thru the end of the noon class.
