We were first in south Florida when "step" was introduced followed by Spinning, Barbell Blast, yoga and Pilates. We've got big balls, small balls and rolling balls for extra dimension in working out. We've got ropes and pulleys, Internet access on machines and a host of fitness evaluation techniques to make sure you never get bored staying on track.

Now Michael announces that MBS is expanding their presence on the Web.

“For the past five years, we’ve had a web page included with our AOL account,” says Michael Papamichael. “It included basic info and pictures on our club. Unfortunately without a domain name (www.companyname.com) members and visitors would have to type a long string of characters to get to it.”

“That has changed with the registration of, www.bodyscenes.com as our own domain name. With this listing we are in the process of revamping our web page with many features and links that a member or visitor will have access to.”

“Besides the usual information on club hours, address, phone number and directions to MBS, we have a myriad of links about us: Mission Statement, Facility Description, Aerobics Schedule, Fitness Services, Physical Therapy, Kid’s Center, MBS Newsletter, Current Events, Membership Info, Employment, Suggestions, Contact Us, and Members:

Mission Statement:
A brief description of our philosophy and what we are about.

Facility Description:
A comprehensive description of our facility from the cardiovascular area to weight room area to our pro-shop.

Aerobics Schedule:
Probably one of the most important links which we will provide and update.

One of our members’ biggest frustrations about classes is the daily change to the schedule due to substitutions of the scheduled instructor. Our unfortunate harried front desk service personnel seem to get the brunt of the member’s ire when they find after driving here, that their favorite instructor is out.

To solve this problem we will provide a link to the current schedule of each studio with the substitutions clearly marked and updated as soon as the instructor notifies us. A date and time stamp will be on top of these pages which will show the last time the schedule was updated to the minute! Before coming to the club the member can go online, check the schedule and know who is teaching (The schedule will be changed Sunday night for the following week).

Fitness Services:
A listing and description of all services from personal training, fitness assessments, and nutritional services.

Physical Therapy:
A profile of Advanced Physical Therapy--our in house physical therapy clinic with background on our therapists, directors and orthopedic doctors, clinic hours and phone numbers.

Kid’s Center:
Besides Kid’s center hours of operation and description, there will be info on fees, and guidelines for parents (Check out the link to quotes from the kids themselves about their center!).

MBS Newsletter:
Our plan is to put every issue of our famous newsletter online. This will be an ongoing process but the result will be a great source of fitness information. All current members receive the newsletter by postal mail (snail mail). We will provide online, an e-mail sign up form to receive the newsletter by lightning quick e-mail as well.

Current Events:
What’s new at MBS? This would be the place to look. Scheduled events such as Master classes, seminars, clinics, CPR certifications, club picnics, and so on would be covered in detail. Special holiday hours, or hours of operation during emergencies such as hurricanes will also be listed.

Membership Info:
Have a friend that is interested in membership? Refer them to this link for information about our memberships. They can sign up for a trial membership online (They must be 18 years old, first time visitor and be a local resident with proof of residence). If they join the club you the referring member would get a prize.

Employment:
Education, experience, and excellence is what our club is about. It takes special individuals to meet these criteria. Now anyone can complete an online pre-employment questionnaire submit the information then schedule an interview.

Suggestions:
We are always soliciting feedback from our members to better improve our club. We provide suggestion forms in the club, and now members can e-mail us a suggestion form online.

Contact Us:
Many of our departments now have their own e-mail @bodyscenes.com. You can contact Michael, Andy, Leslie, Chuck, sales, and bookkeeping directly. We will also provide an area to update member’s info such as name change, change of address, telephone, any accounting changes (checking account, credit card numbers, expiration dates etc.)

Members:
MBS has a very diverse collection of health club members. We provide fitness services to every age and lifestyle, from business people, senior citizens, housewives, athletes, and kids. This link will have quotes from these members along with pictures of these individuals exercising and having fun.

Future plans for our web site will be an online eStore where anyone can purchase items sold in our pro-shop through a secure page and have the items shipped.

Through the same secure site, memberships will be able to be purchased online. Members will also be able to post a payment to their account for dues.
