Welcome to 2026: A Year of Courage, Growth & Community

As we step into 2026, I’m filled with gratitude, excitement, and a deep sense of purpose.

This year marks 10 years of Evolution Fitness & Wellness, and that milestone feels especially meaningful when you consider that nearly 30% of small boutique fitness studios permanently closed between early 2020 and 2022. We all remember 2020 and the uncertainty that followed.

Reaching our 10-year anniversary isn’t just about longevity in business. It’s about people. It’s about building a community rooted in strength, consistency, and connection so individuals can live with confidence and independence for years to come.

And we’re just getting started.

2026: The Year of the Fire Horse

2026 is known as the Year of the Fire Horse, a symbol of energy, courage, freedom, and transformation.

I’ve always been an animal lover, and reconnecting with horses especially alongside my granddaughter and her growing passion has brought me back to a younger, more grounded version of myself. That symbolism feels especially fitting as we enter a year that encourages bold action after a period of reflection.

The Fire Horse year favors:

• Forward momentum

• Challenging limitations

• Personal growth through intentional action

• Stepping into new identities with clarity rather than fear

Which raises an important question:

What bold action will you take in 2026?

If nothing changes, nothing changes. But when we choose courage especially when it comes to our health, movement, and mindset real transformation becomes possible.

My Personal Focus for 2026

On a personal level, I’m continuing to prioritize strength while placing greater emphasis on VO₂ max and power two key components of long-term cardiovascular health and resilience as we age.

With hopes of returning to the saddle this year, hip mobility and core strength are also front and center in my training. These aren’t just fitness goals they’re about maintaining freedom, confidence, and the ability to do what I love.

On the business side, I’m excited to make thoughtful, bold changes at Evolution Fitness & Wellness so we can support more people not just locally in Cypress, Texas, but across the country. I’m saying yes more often, trusting that the Lord has a plan for this next chapter, and I’m grateful to share that journey with our growing community.
