GiGiFIT Studio Grand Opening
February 19, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
GiGi’s Playhouse, a one-of-a-kind achievement center for individuals with Down syndrome, their family, and the community, hosts the grand opening of the GiGiFIT Studio on Feb. 19.
This program is designed for children and adults with Down syndrome to help them improve low muscle tone that starts at birth. GiGiFIT will be offered to all ages in a newly acquired studio located right next to GiGi’s Playhouse in Scottsdale.
The organization will kick things off with a grand opening on Feb. 19 from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., coinciding with Gigi’s Playhouse’s eighth anniversary. The event will include a ribbon cutting, fitness demonstrations, tours of the facility, healthy snacks and several health and wellness concepts from around the valley, including StretchLab. The event is open to the public and the community is welcome to attend.
GiGi’s Playhouse, which is 90 percent volunteer run, serves 800 families and supplies 9,000 hours of free programing for its community in a typical year. With this new space, it is projected that the organization will be able to help twice as many families. GiGi’s Playhouse received the necessary funding for this new facility from the Scottsdale Charros and Arizona Sports & Tourism Authority.
