Watching Football with Andrew Teie

My friend Andrew taught me all about football on Sunday at a bar in the East Village.  Andrew and I work together at LivingSocial Adventures and he is an avid football fan.  This FWB was so fun to make and I’m confident that it will definitely benefit me in the future.  There is a lot of good info, so you’ll basically be an expert in football when you’re done watching this including how to maximize your experience at the bar.  Thanks Andrew for being so down to make this video!  Much appreciated;)

Sun Salutation with Erica Bornstein

My friend, Erica Bornstein, teaches me how to do a sun salutation in yoga.  Erica and I grew up together in Canton, MA and have been friends since 6th grade.  She is a very talented dancer and amazing yoga teacher.  She teaches all over Boston and if you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and go to a class!   “Like”her on Facebook to see her schedule, get healthy fitness tips and check out her latest playlists.  Thanks Bornsmaggs!  I’m so proud of you for becoming one of Boston’s best yoga teachers. xo

GAGA with Layna Germino

Here is a secret game that not many know about.  It is basically only played in the fields of New Hampshire, PA, and Maine during the warm summer months by young children and awkward teenagers alike in a place known as summer camp.  This game is called GAGA and to my knowledge has nothing to do with Lady Gaga. Watch as my friend and seasoned camp veteran, Layna Germino, teaches you this epic “sport.”  I met Layna a year ago when she joined Livingsocial Adventures.  We both share a deep love for all things summer camp and I was so excited when we realized that she could teach me GAGA at Livingsocial’s SummerCamp for adults this past Labor Day Weekend since sadly, my camp did not have a GAGA pit.  Thanks Layna for helping me constantly relive the goodness of summer camp. xo

CrossFit with Kevin Foley

Today, my friend, Kevin Foley teaches me CrossFit exercises.  Kevin recently opened his own CrossFit gym called CrossFit HomeBase in our hometown, Canton, MA.  Check it out at crossfithomebase.com and like it on Facebook.

This Friendships With Benefits was really fun and truly reminded me of why I am doing this project.  Although, Kevin and I have rarely seen each other since high school (probably once a year at Thanksgiving), Friendships With Benefits facilitated us to hang out and catch up with what’s going on in our lives.  It was so fun making this video and awesome to see someone you’ve grown up with succeed to own and operate a business and inspire others towards a better life.   Thank you again, Kevin, for offering to participate.  It was really fun and I’m sure CrossFit HomeBase is going to be an amazing success!

Juggling with Jordan Franzblau

My friend, Jordan, teaches me how to juggle in Madison Square Park.  Although we had some interruptions including the park ranger telling us to move off the grass and a curious one year old, Jordan was an awesome teacher and I think I have real potential in a future career as a juggling clown.  Thanks again, Juggling Master!
