Business
Go Go Fit Opens on Main Street
|
The idea for Go Go Fit came to Sue Teoli in July, in the days after she closed Fitness Together on East Avenue, a business she’d owned as a franchisee since January 2009. Honoring her clients’ remaining sessions by lugging her equipment to their homes (“backyards and basements”) or meeting up somewhere else in New Canaan for her trademark small-group (two to four people) workouts, Teoli saw a new one-woman business take shape. Last week, she set up a new fitness studio in the 550-square-foot space at 162 Main St. (formerly Betty’s Teas), opposite the library and next to Le Boudoir blow dry and beauty bar. Refreshingly down-to-earth (“Listen, exercise is awful for most people”) and realistic (“I know there are 1,000 fitness places here and 2 million trainers”), Teoli is seeking to carve out a niche in the fitness landscape of New Canaan, where she’s offering individual attention, variety and fun in an intimate setting.
