Zoetry Resorts offer guests a safe-haven of relaxation and rejuvenation. The special opportunity of providing wellness classes to their guests have been granted to Fit Bodies Inc. fitness professionals. Traveling through Fit Bodies Inc. as a fitness professional offers the chance to offer resort guests the most important vacation souvenir of all; Improved wellness, be it mental, physical or emotional health.

Fitness professionals choosing to teach and stay at a Zoetry Resort are offered many of the same Endless Privileges® package details offered to the guests. The resort has two casual restaurants and one fine dining option, expansive guest suites, 24-hour room service and is always catering to every need of guests in all 51 suites. Zoetry Agua is known for fresh, organically grown food options and ecologically safe practices throughout the property.

Very recently I took the opportunity to visit Zoetry Agua Punta Cana while teaching yoga for Fit Bodies Inc. at Dreams Punta Cana. This resort and its location is a very special experience for the fitness professional who decide the position is right for them. Zoetry Agua requests one fitness professional at a time that specializes in either yoga and meditation or pilates and aqua aerobics. Fit Bodies Inc. is allowing pros to book non-Sunday to Sunday travel days and also those professionals looking to travel for longer than a week may consider this a good option.

Many of Zoetry’s guests are at special times of their lives. Pre-natal getaway seekers have been known to travel here and catering to those needs may be necessary. Fit Bodies Inc. instructors will offer group, small group and private lessons while staying in guest accommodations at the resort. The aqua fitness is in gorgeous pool so students face the ocean. The spa is a gorgeous place to hold classes either in the open, breezy lounge area outside or next to the indoor pool, listening to the warm, soothing sound of the waterfall. Teachers here will instruct in the most beautiful settings and offer a special experience to their students.

Zoetry Agua is a small, very private resort and should be considered a luxurious and relaxing teaching opportunity for the guest teacher. For the teacher considering a private, personal retreat I think this is perfect. Guest instructors, as always are able to have a guest accompany them. You and your guest will enjoy luxurious indulgences, without the guilt!

From Secrets Sanctuary to Dreams Punta Cana

It’s true; I am traveling just like any other fitness professional would be traveling upon teaching for Fit Bodies Inc. Yesterday Secrets Sanctuary went from 30% occupancy to 100% occupancy and my room was needed. Bumped. Bummer? Nah. But I did offer to stay and sleep on my balcony!

I was told we are going to be moved to another resort just before my 9:30am yoga class. As a guest instructor, I understand this can happen anytime, although it is rare, and in the spirit of business we should are glad the resorts have so many guests. In a way, we feel the resort’s max capacity should mean they need more fitness instructors, but alas there are only so many rooms to go around. Chad and I packed up our things, ate a wonderful lunch and said good bye to my new friends. Tony is a member of the Activities staff who is very motivating and fit. He conducts the a.m. power-walks and also the aqua aerobics. If you teach here and offer aqua classes I’m sure your skills will be appreciated and this class is at 11:30 or noon. His class encourages friendship and conversation among the pool people, like myself, and this I appreciate.

Here we are now at Dreams Punta Cana where Mr. Jose Tolentino personally greeted us with big smile. This is someone who I correspond with on a regular basis and so to meet him, put an official face and voice to his email signatures is especially meaningful to me. A cold drink and towel welcome us after the 55-minute ride from Cap Cana to Dreams Punta Cana.

This resort is way big. Over 650 rooms, and all of them are next to the pool, which the rooms basically surround with the ocean at the end. Despite the size, I feel personal attention from the housekeepers to the restaurant service. They are almost always smiling, to resort guests and to one another. I think the staff at Sanctuary is absolutely top notch but here at Dreams Punta Cana they must have written the manual on resort hospitality.

Last night I saw the best resort entertainment I have ever seen. Dreams Punta Cana is an exciting, activity filled resort and their entertainers are absolutely top notch, coming from a dance or gymnast background and work very hard, practicing from 11a.m. to at least 6p.m. everyday. This does not even include the time they spend performing. I have so much respect for them.

The fitness classes here are only 30 minutes long, so prepare to teach more often, but shorter classes. The guest fitness pros teach 4 thirty-minute classes and Mr. Tolentino wants pros to offer multiple formats. Being I only teach yoga, I am an exception to this rule. I sign off for the moment to teach the 10 a.m. class and then Mr. Tolentino is taking us on a tour of Zoetry Agua. This is what I have been waiting for and I am very anxious to see the resort! You can rest assured I will have a detailed report about Zoetry Agua this evening.
