News from Fellowship Fitness

POLSON — On Saturday, May 3, at 9 a.m. a 5K Fun Run will be held by Fellowship Fitness as a fundraiser to support free wellness opportunities for all. 

Fellowship Fitness was established in October 2022 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in partnership with Mission Church. We operate on a donation-based model, providing all classes at no cost. Our dedicated instructors volunteer their time to ensure quality fitness and wellness services for all. Our mission is to foster a healthier community by providing free fitness classes that promote wellness and empowerment for all. 

At Fellowship Fitness, we believe that access to health and wellness is vital to our community’s well-being. Our instructors and community are committed to creating an environment that fosters engagement and support through our classes. Jessica Schallock, the founder and lead instructor, has 19 years of experience in the fitness industry. With her husband, Kurt Schallock, she is deeply invested in the Mission Valley community, and their dedication is truly remarkable and appreciated.

Fellowship Fitness boasts over 200 members who take advantage of our eight diverse classes and certified Les Mills instructors. As a licensed Les Mills facility, our instructors continually introduce new programs and refine core classes to enhance the experience.

Funds raised by the 5K will be used to help pay monthly licensing and overhead costs. Additionally, it will help Fellowship Fitness plan for a dedicated facility, allowing us to grow more sustainably. Currently, our space and classes are at maximum capacity, limiting our ability to serve the community.

By securing our own establishment, we could expand class sizes and increase the number of available classes, thereby enhancing our instructor pool. This expansion would provide opportunities to reach hundreds more community members, making wellness accessible to all.

Community members are invited to get involved by sponsoring or participating in the run which begins and ends at Mission Church, 36673 Fair Meadow Lane.
