Fun At Sweat NYC for Japan







Here are a few pictures of the good times had at our benefit. Provided to us by a down chick known as Original Bgirlsmiles, Renee Collazo. Look at that form!


Here's Adayana de la Torre looking too cute. I don't like being shown up stylistically. Watch yourself, girl! Check out the beautiful Ogilvy theatre space behind her. What a great place to have classes!



















Zeel.com, one of our sponsors was awesome enough to spend the whole day with us and take part in all the classes.













Kim plays M.C. and Momma with Mya strapped to her back.







Here I am (Melissa) taking care of people as they check in. I did good!

Actress, Mika Okano, performs spoken word to commemorate the event. She looks like a beautiful spring Cherry Blossom.

Pilates teacher, Mimosa Gordon, takes a well-deserved rest after her class.








And the real star of the show...Mya! This is Kim's daughter and honestly, she's the reason people came out to the event. They all wanted to drool over this ridiculously cute baby. Thanks, Mya, for lending us your star power!
