GETTING TO KNOW THE TEAM

This week we decided to spotlight some of the youngest members of the TEAM. First up, Alicia's children, Mia and George Canney. Here at TEAMride, we don't discriminate based on age, but we might feel the urge to hug and kiss you if you're under the age of 5 :)

Spotlight on... Mia & George

Getting to Know Mia Canney

As the only female grandchild, Mia is quite the little princess. Whether she's trying to convince us to buy her pink sparkly shoes or explaining the benefits of dessert for dinner, she always has a lot to say. So we decided to let her do the talking by asking her a few questions...

1. What is TEAMride? With a shrug of her shoulders: a cycling studio?
2. If you could spend your time doing only one thing, what would it be? Painting, because they have paint at my school and I like to make paintings for people... for my mom.
3. If you could have a super power, what would it be? Rainbow Power. You squirt rainbow webs or rainbow traps or rainbow soup out. Because this is my favorite thing. My name would be Glorious Strawberry Rainbow!
4. Where do you think would be the most exciting place to live? The play of Wicked
5. What is your favorite word right now? "Please" and "Thank you" because when I say these words I get something that I want!
6. If you could swap places with anyone in the world for just a day, who would you choose? Why? Like in a costume? I have a princess costume and I like to dress up as princesses. Like that?
7. Favorite color: Pink and purple
8. Favorite flower: Daisies... pink ones
9. Favorite Food: Macaroni & cheese
10. Favorite Character: Ariel because she swims in the water

Getting to Know George Canney 

George, the youngest of the grandchildren (at least for a couple more days), is the most easy going of the bunch. He is constantly staring intently out of those huge brown eyes, but don't be fooled by his good looks, he is more than happy to loudly inform you what he would like with his rapidly expanding vocabulary. Below are some questions, answered on his behalf by his mother, though we're sure she got the answers spot-on...

1. If you could spend your time doing only one thing, what would it be? Chasing squirrels and watching trucks go by!
2. Favorite flower: Any flower. I love to smell each and every one
3. Favorite Food: Cookies
4. Favorite movie: Toy Story
5. Favorite Character: Buzz Lightyear because he gets to be in space

GETTING TO KNOW THE TEAM

TEAMride is more than a fitness studio, it is also a community.  This is what inspired us to kick off our weekly "Getting to know the TEAM" spotlight where we feature the wonderful people that comprise TEAMride. This week we decided to spotlight the person who raised us and without whom none of this would have been possible...

Spotlight on our mother, Ana Katnik

We like to say that mom has drunk from the fountain of youth! Her energy and enthusiasm in everyday life is truly enviable. We can only hope these characteristics are hereditary :)

She is a loving grandmother, or "Bella", to 3 (soon-to-be 4) grandsons and 1 granddaughter, and she can often be spotted teaching them about perennials and annuals in the backyard. We think it's safe to assume mom's youthful exuberance isn't going anywhere. 

1. Currently playing on your iPhone: The Promise, Tracy Chapman
2. San Francisco or Tahoe? Tahoe
3. Favorite Season: Spring
4. Favorite Hobby: Gardening, dancing, yoga & snow skiing
5. Morning Person or Night Owl? Night Owl
6. Describe yourself in one word: Compassionate
7. Any phobias? Claustrophobia... but it's not full blown
8. Favorite TV show: Glee, Smash & Dancing with the Stars
9. Favorite Flower: Well, I love the Dogwood Tree which flowers in the Spring
10. Favorite Quote: "There's no time like the present"
