are ‘all in at City Star’ with respect to the business and the local community. The brewery is everything to us. Actually it is rumored that our building at 321 Mountain—originally City Star Barn livery stable and then Jefferes Garage—traded hands multiple times in poker games.”
THE MURAL THAT ARTIST GAMMA CREATED IN BERTHOUD IS NAMED “ALL IN AT CITY STAR BREWING.”
It shows an old-timey high stakes poker game, and there on the table is the deed to that very brewery. Co-owner Whitney Way explained: “Metaphorically John and I feel we 8 LONGMONT MAGAZINE
Opening a brewery is high-stakes even in the best of times. Whitney and her husband John opened it five years ago and just finished a big renovation. They expanded the taproom and added an outdoor beer garden. The addition of a 1,000 square foot barrel room gives them space for the barrels where they age the brews and a place for special events, tastings LongmontMagazine.com
and meetings of home brew clubs. They named it the Zoller Barrel House for a shoe store that used to stand in the location. John designed a big roll-up garage door and the beer garden, which has a stage for live music and seating for 50 people. The outdoor mural was revealed on Labor Day with the artist, Gamma, on hand as Berthoud brewery supporters raised their glasses in congratulations. The Ways commissioned Gamma, who created “All In at City Star” completely freehand, using only spray cans (no stencils or etching) on the 700-square foot concrete canvas. January/February 2018

Gamma developed the concept for the mural inspired by City Star’s historic roots and the general brewery vibe, which aims to maintain Berthoud’s history. He took inspiration from artifacts unearthed during the taproom expansion and incorporated the wood grain on the concrete wall from wood forms used to construct the building in the early 1900s.
Gamma grew up in Longmont, where he is well known for his photo-realistic historic portraits featured in the downtown passageways. The artist said he was drawing since before he could remember and that creativity and problem solving were always on his mind. After graduating from school, Gamma did not pursue art for quite some time;
Love is more than you ever imagined.
it wasn’t until years later and perfect circumstances that he found a new expression, public art. The world was his painting surface, he discovered, and he had a way with a spray can that took him beyond the hardened parameters of street writing.

his unintended career began to gain speed. Today, he lives in Denver and works all the time creating murals inside and out for businesses. His work is almost exclusively created with cans of spray paint and can be seen all over the Mile High city and in galleries and books about graffiti and murals (gammagallery.co). Last year, Gamma was the featured artist at Longmont’s Firehouse Art Center. “All In” could also describe the way Gamma creates his murals, because he throws himself into his work, hanging from a tall ladder, brandishing spray cans and creating as he goes. Unlike many artists, he can even draw a completely round and perfect circle without using any instruments or measuring tapes. The Berthoud mural sets the tone for the brewery’s beers and ales with classic old West names. Releases include the Widowmaker Imperial Stout, “the darkest beer of the year for the darkest day of the year,” and evocative names like Outlaw, Buccaneer, Belle, Troubadour, Deadwood, Revolver IPA, Cowboy’s Golden, Bandit Brown, Red Necktar, Night 10 LONGMONT MAGAZINE
Watchman Stout and 6-Shooter pale Ale. City Star offers award-winning, small batch ales, and was awarded Gold and Bronze medals at the Great American Beer Festival in 2013 and a bronze metal in 2015. In 2016 City Star brewed 925 barrels of beer on their 3.5-barrel system. The City Star barrel-aging has an important effect on the beer, according to Michael J. Casey of Boulder Weekly: “The aroma of bourbon whiskey greets you once you chip through the black wax sealing Outlaw’s bottle cap and pry the beast open. It’ll come out swinging, but give it a minute or five to open up in the glass and let the air smooth out those edges — a solid indication the brew will only improve over time.” City Star Brewing is one of 348 breweries in Colorado, or six breweries for every 100,000 people. In Berthoud, population 6,368, there are two breweries, or one for every 3,000 people. (The other microbrewer is Berthoud Brewing.) Berthoud has been a perfect place LongmontMagazine.com
for City Star’s venture, Whitney said. In 2011 her parents, Dan and Rudi Taylor, purchased a 10,000-squarefoot, 100-year-old building they turned into retail and storage space. They operate two businesses there, Wishful Living and Happy Mango Beads. When John decided he wanted to turn his home brewing hobby into a business, he spent a year working at Oskar Blues and then he and Whitney rented the space for the brewery from her parents. According to the Berthoud Surveyor, her parents remodeled the entire building, and the Ways focused on their area, spending a year doing the work. They redid the façade, scraped the ceiling to give it a rustic look, added new walls and installed a new concrete floor and interior systems. They were able to retain historical aspects of the building, such as the ceiling and interior brick, and constructed tables and the front of the bar out of some of the original structural wood beams and wood flooring. They also repurposed some of the original windows to serve as chalkboard menus. January/February 2018

“Anytime we could reuse aspects of the building we did,” Whitney said. They created a walking tour of the brewery with a listing of the historical photos of Berthoud hanging throughout that they printed from historical society images.

To add even further to the historical feel, the Ways created four tables out of oak barrels that are in the taproom and a barrel chandelier John made out of another barrel. They used corrugated metal along the wall and incorporated wood, metal, brick and concrete elements throughout, using rustic earth tones. “John and I joke that Berthoud chose us,” Whitney said. “The community was very welcoming and we love Berthoud’s small town atmosphere. We were fortunate to purchase our first home in Berthoud three years ago.” Their fixer-upper was built in 1915, a block from the brewery. “It’s too close to bike!” Whitney laughed. She said their children, Taylor, almost 3, and Walter, 5 months, add a wonderful level of chaos to their lives. She said both children spend plenty of time at the brewery and that Taylor loves helping dad whenever he can. Emily Taylor, Whitney’s sister, is now City Star’s general manager.

They will provide useful information to promote movement toward independence and self-efficacy in young adulthood. The four professionals hope to give young adults and their parents the resources to handle some big questions, like, What will I major in and what career do I want? How will I survive the speed bumps ahead?
How will I stay healthy? How will I stay organized? “I hope that students going off to college will be better prepared for the vast changes between the structure that is provided for them in high school and by parents, and the structure they will need to create for themselves to be successful in college.

Then five years ago Ken died unexpectedly while exercising. “My life changed dramatically,” she said. “Where do I go from here? What do I do?” Sheri decided to pursue her and Ken’s dream. Yet she needed more training to head a machine shop. She earned a scholarship into the precision machining program at Front Range Community College (FRCC) in Longmont and completed two internships. “The combination of attending the machining classes at Front Range Community College and working in the field gave me experience, confidence, vision and ideas,” Sheri 22 LONGMONT MAGAZINE

said. She is currently developing machining products for emergency medicine from her shop. “The thought of developing products to save people’s lives gives me purpose, hope and joy,” she said.

first time. Some, like Sheri, seek purpose. Others want to grow a small business, make a successful living or cultivate transferable skills. The counselors and administrators of two local colleges— FRCC and the Institute of Business and Medical Careers (IBMC) in Longmont—offer dozens of programs to jumpstart later-inlife careers.

Steve Steele, chief executive officer of IBMC, urged those contemplating a return to school to “consider what they hope to achieve.” He asked, “What kind of things do they enjoy doing, what kind of industries appear to be in demand and what length of time could I invest in myself as I pursue something new and different vocationally?” FRCC’s “program and courses” page on their website offers a list of questions to clarify which careers might best fit a person’s goals, interests and talents. FRCC public relations director John Feeley recommended the Department of Labor’s website onetonline.org for a comprehensive list of job descriptions and training guidelines. Admissions representatives at IBMC are available to conduct

“Right Fit” career assessments, and counselors at FRCC help students chart the swiftest path to a degree or certification. Feeley noted that transfer students from FRCC to a four-year school perform better academically on average than students who start at a large university. Degrees and programs at community colleges are as varied as cosmetology, medical assisting and optics technician training and transfer degrees in fermentation sciences and geospatial studies. To make school feasible, Sheri and Harrison invested in night classes. “Find a college that has a schedule that can work around your life and that respects that you still have a life going on outside of college,” Steele urged. “Working, balancing your family and school is not going to be easy, but you can do it in the right supportive environment.” FRCC and IBMC host flexible class schedules, with fourday schedules and a range of class times. Sheri said, “There wasn’t a night that I didn’t learn something new. I am very thankful.” 24 LONGMONT MAGAZINE

Executive director Bonnie Chaim explained, “Our goal at ECS is to create a comfortable, vibrant space to support Longmont community members, many of whom wish to stop working in the isolation of their home or in the more transient setting of a library or coffee shops.” ECS members include film festival producers, attorneys, caterers, tech companies, non-profits and an astrologer.

This year’s best skin rejuvenation treatments and procedures Taking care of your skin is important, but if you find you have problem areas or damage to correct, there are a few procedures that may help. (Tim Seibert/ Longmont Magazine)
Ready to put your best face forward for the New Year? You’ve got several options as skin rejuvenation treatments and procedures can work wonders by erasing fine lines, minimizing those pesky sunspots we’re prone to here in sun-soaked Colorado, and, giving you an allaround radiant glow. As we embark on 2018 and embrace the theme of “new beginnings,” we checked in with the professionals here in Longmont to find out what treatments can help enhance your natural beauty and restore your youthfulness.
January/February 2018
Here are some rejuvenating procedures to consider, ranging from high-tech facials to procedures.
See an instant difference with a HydraFacial
We know that our skin looks its best and most radiant when it’s properly hydrated. The HydraFacial performs a double duty by vacuuming away dead skin cells and impurities and bathing and moisturizing the skin with serums and a hydrating solution.“You can see the change in the skin at the end of the treatment,” says Jean McBride, owner of

aRejuvenation Med Spa. “It looks more alive and bright.” The treatment is popular with both men and women, she says.
Microneedling can remedy several skin problems “The one rejeuvenating procedure that I believe anyone with any skin type can do is microneedling,” says McBride.
The process creates tiny channels in the dermis of the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process to create collagen and elastin. The treatment is multi-purpose: It helps diminish age and sun spots, as well as minimize fine lines and wrinkles. The tiny channels can increase serum absorption by 300 percent, reaching deeper layers of skin, McBride says. Stem-cell based serums can then feed your skin, encouraging your skin cells to revitalize themselves.
Get a customized chemical peel
Chemical peels can help achieve a number of outcomes. As an example, at aRejuvenation Med Spa a “Customized PCA Skin Chemical Peel” can reduce the

the skin, removing blackheads, improving age spots, hyperpigmentation (i.e. patches of darkened skin) and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment can also reduce or eliminate enlarged pores. “It’s going to give the skin a nice glow,” Contreras says.
If intense facials just aren’t getting results you desire, ask professionals, like the staff at Meyers Aesthetic Center, about rejuvenating in-office procedures that may have more dramatic results. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine.)
depth of surface lines, smooth rough skin texture and treat redness or discoloration on the skin. Meanwhile, a “Lira Lactic Refresh Peel” can hydrate and brighten the skin.
Dermaplaning can maximize your moisturizer
Looking for an easy way to rejuvenate your skin? Give dermaplaning a try, suggests Jaclyn Contreras, medical esthetician with Meyers Aesthetic Center. The exfoliation procedure removes dead skin from the surface of your skin, as well as vellus hair (think: peach fuzz), explains Contreras. This treatment allows your moisturizers to penetrate into deeper layers of your skin, rather than getting blocked on surface levels, which is great for those who have dry skin. “It also makes your makeup look so smooth 28 LONGMONT MAGAZINE
Botox remains popular
on your skin,” Contreras says. The procedure is done with a stainless steel surgical blade, which might sound scary, she says, but actually feels much like a cat licking the skin. While you could come in for this treatment every four to six weeks, it still will make an impact if you get it done as a yearly pick-meup.
Consider microdermabrasion for a quick “pick-me-up”
Whether you’re short on time or are leaning toward a non-invasive procedure, microdermabrasion can help give your skin a nice glow. You can get a 30-minute express treatment or a longer one-hour treatment, Contreras says. A machine gently sands LongmontMagazine.com
Botox and fillers are popular treatments at Meyers Aesthetic Center, Contreras says. The Botox injections can be used to relieve vertical creases between the eyebrows and horizontal creases that stretch across the forehead. “It’s a great way to turn back time, and it helps prevent lines from becoming more prominent on the face,” Contreras says.
If you love the contoured look, try a cheek lift
Using makeup to contour and highlight facial features can tack on a lot of time to your morning routine. A cheek lift or filler can help you achieve a natural, contoured look. “Dr. Meyers makes sure that you look natural, and you don’t ever look ‘overdone,’” she says. Also, liposuction isn’t just for abs, hips and January/February 2018
thighs. It can be used to contour your face and reduce or eliminate fatty deposits on your neck, cheek or chin as these areas tend to be resistant to diet and exercise, according to Meyers Aesthetic Center.
Open Earlier!! M - F 5:30am - 6pm S & S 6am - 4pm
Try Intense Pulsed Light if you want to look younger The No. 1 question that Contreras fields: “How can I look younger?” “A big problem in Colorado is the sun causes sun damage and dark spots,” she explains. Intense Pulsed Light is a broad-spectrum light that heats and destroys darker, sun-damaged areas on the skin; a perfect solution for that prevalent Colorado problem.
IF YOU GO... Open House Meyers Aesthetic Center is holding an open house, with specials on products and procedures from 4 to 6 p.m. Jan. 30 at the Longmont office, which is located inside the Eye Care Center of Northern Colorado at 1400 Dry Creek Drive in Longmont, CO. 80503.

Silver Creek Leadership Academy Capstone Project Combines Love of Food with Love for Longmont By WENDY MCMILLAN for LONGMONT MAGAZINE
Growing up as the daughter of a dietitian, Silver Creek High School Senior Madeline Karr remembers being conscious of the power and potential of food from an early age. In her household, a wide variety or nutritious ingredients, plentiful fruits and vegetables, and accessible healthy snacks was always the norm. And while Karr’s mother, Kaiser Permanente registered dietitian Sue Heikkinen, Ms, Rd, CDE, took care to emphasize the importance of a healthy, balanced diet, Karr didn’t grow up feeling restricted or overly managed with regard to her food choices. Rather, she recalls growing increasingly conscious of the possibilities offered by food, and empowered to personally make –and create—healthy food choices. The kitchen has always held a special allure for Karr, as a place of nourishment, convening as a family and as friends, and for culinary experimentation. Cooking featured as an engaging activity from the time she was a Kindergartner. Her passion was particularly ignited the summer January/February 2018

following fourth grade, when she attended a cooking camp at Stir It Up Cooking School in Boulder. “I was initially nervous, afraid I’d be lonely,” Karr recalls. “I didn’t have any friends attending with me. But once I got there, it was so exciting! Everyone was passionate about food. It was so much fun! Also, throughout the cooking classes I took, I brought recipes back home to make again with my family. That really made an impact on me, realizing that the classes went well beyond the time in the classroom, and reached beyond the lives of the direct participants.” LongmontMagazine.com
Karr’s experience learning about nutrition and combining that knowledge with a love of cooking made the task of developing a concept for

RELATIONSHIPS
How soon do you follow up after
Y
ou go on a first date Tuesday night, and you think it went pretty well. In fact, you’re sure it went pretty well. I mean, why else would your prospective new lover constantly let his or her knee graze yours all night or share your drink as if you’d known each other for more than, oh, 45 minutes? You go home content, and (dare I say it?) happy. Wednesday morning comes and goes, and by Wednesday at around 3 p.m., you think the potential new relationship is doomed. It’s been 17.26 hours, and not even a measly text to say what a nice time he or she had?? The advent of modern technology — texting, Snapchat, email, Facebook — has completely changed the antiquated “three-day rule” that I’m sure many of us have heard of, into more like a “three-hour rule.” So many relationships end before they even start because no one knows the answer to the simple question: How soon do you follow up after a date? A few years ago, a survey performed by the company LoveGeist was commissioned by Match.com, and it found that after a first date on a Saturday evening, most daters will get in touch by 11:48 a.m. on Monday with a call or text. Thus, 1.52 days is now the average time spent waiting for a follow-up message. And between the time this survey was performed and today, I’m guessing 38 LONGMONT MAGAZINE
that the 1.52 days is even conservative. Most people assume that if their date was interested in meeting again, there will be some imminent communication. So…. the three-day rule is now (at least) cut in half. For what it’s worth, I don’t recommend a first date on a Saturday night, especially a first online date. A weeknight or Sunday evening date works well, and then if you want to see each other again, you can plan for the coveted Friday or Saturday night slot when you already know you have some chemistry.

In this day and age, we are all basically surgically attached to our phones. I know someone who texted from the hospital bed just minutes after she had a baby (Hi, Kim!), and we all know someone (and that person likely stares at us in the mirror) who checks his or her email or the news every morning on the phone before even getting out of bed. When it comes down to it, if you like someone, it’s so easy to get in touch. If you wait the antiquated three days, it’s already a foregone conclusion that you’re probably just not that into the other person.

January/February 2018
The rules are simple: If you like someone and want to make plans for a second date, then make the contact in a timely fashion. A short and sweet text saying, “Had a great time last night! Would love to do it again if you’re interested. Let me know what your week looks like.” And ladies, if he has the courtesy to ask you out again and you’re not interested, do the kind thing and thank him, using the

And there we have it — the threeday rule debunked. Somehow the “1.52-day rule” just doesn’t quite have the same ring to it. Let’s call it the “36-hour rule” and be on our way. ——— (Erika Ettin is the founder of A Little Nudge, where she helps others navigate the often intimidating world of online dating.

Valentine’s Day approaches, one question comes to mind for many of us: where are we going to eat? Food—both sweet and savory—is a major component of this holiday. Sharing food is one of the most tangible ways that we show love to one another (and to ourselves, for that matter). Furthermore, the right dinner date can serve to excite romance and intimacy in your relationship—think aphrodisiacs. Whether you are in search of a multi-course meal with a tried-and-true aphrodisiac like oysters, or just want to pick up a sweet treat to share at home, Longmont’s wealth of dining options steps up their game for the most romantic day of the year. Valentine’s Day is big business for restaurants, so there is no shortage of options for love birds. There is something for everyone, from rich and savory to spicy and sweet. Just remember: it’s never too early to make your reservations!
Sugarbeet’s menu has all the makings of a romantic meal: freshshucked oysters and steamed little-neck clams fall into the category of bivalve mollusks, which have been long-celebrated for their ability to induce desire. Chefs prepare a plate of fresh oysters at Sugarbeet. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine

Few things heat up the romance like a little spice. Modern and traditional combine at Jefe’s Tacos & Tequila. Tacos, enchiladas, burritos and more dish up the chile and afterward, you’re covered for both drinks and dessert. This Valentine’s Day, the restaurant will be serving a “Mezcal and Chocolate” tasting plate for two. “Mezcal and chocolate go well together for many reasons,” says Sean Gafner, owner of Jefe’s. “They are both intensely-flavored cultural elements with similar origins in Mexico and they are both Chocolate, spiced almonds, candied orange peel and cherries fermented to develop their flavor.” The tasting plate will make up this special sampler for Valentines. (Photo courtesy Jefe’s Tacos & Tequila) include a cinnamon-flecked dark chocolate torte, spiced almonds, candied orange peel and Amarena cherries coated in sea salt. “The lightly sweetened bitterness of both chocolate and mezcal is enlightened by tasting back and forth with others flavors, like fruits, nuts and spices,” says Gafner. “The plate is meant to be tasted in a variety of combinations for a sort of ‘choose your own adventure’ style of eating.” The $19 tasting plate also comes with your choice of any two Mezcal Vago mezcals (Gafner recommends Espadin).

Samples Bistro will be doing a pre-fixe menu for Valentine’s Day. While the pre-fixe menu can sometimes feel, well, a little pre-fixed—couples get to choose their wine or beer pairing at Samples. Additionally, couples can rest assured that the menu will include a special Valentine’s Day fondue for two. “We do comfort food boldly and for special occasions we put on our fancy pants and make comfort food fancy,” says Mark Sample, proprietor of Samples World Bistro. Fondue is not only delicious, but very interactive, creating many opportunities for you to snuggle a little closer to your valentine.

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the oil, garlic, and anchovies and whisk them constantly for 3 to 4 minutes. The anchovies will break apart and disperse in the oil. Whisk in the milk, followed by 6 tablespoons cold butter. As soon as the butter has melted, remove the sauce from the heat and give it a few more beats with your whisk so that everything is creamy and emulsified. LongmontMagazine.com
2. Taste the dip; if it’s a bit too fishy for you, add 2 tablespoons more butter. Just remember that you’ll be eating it in small amounts to liven up plain vegetables, so it should have a powerful flavor. 3. Wash the veggies and chop them into pieces appropriate for dipping. Serve with the warm dip. Serves 6. Adapted from Cooking, Blokes & Artichokes by Brendan Collins, Kyle Books ($29.95)

While Valentine’s Day can be an excellent excuse to treat yourself, getting a reservation can be a challenge. A quarter of Americans eat out on the holiday every year, making it the most popular restaurant day of the year after Mother’s Day. Luckily, eating at home doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice tasty food and delicious drinks. On the contrary— staying home for Valentine’s Day might even leave a little extra room for romance.
The bubbles—champagne and prosecco—often make a popular choice for Valentine’s Day, along with festive, pink-hued rosés. But Dennis Dinsmore of Wyatt’s Wet Goods recommends that lovers go bold this year with an Italian red aptly named Love. “It’s a Veneto Rosso—a nice, soft, full-bodied red—that comes packaged with a red wax heart for a label,” says Dinsmore. The bottle also features a necker with a Shakespeare quote about the love of Romeo and Juliet: “When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew/If you will die for me, I will
die for you.” “Pretty tragic,” says Dinsmore, “but poignant for lovers of all the ages.” A Valentine’s Day sale at Wyatt’s makes Love wine bottles an economic choice, as well: you’ll be able to get a bottle for $10 around the holiday. No discussion of Valentine’s Day would be complete without chocolate. Chocolate is a sacred and not-so-secret ingredient for both happiness and love—a fact wellknown at Aime’s Love. “Our specialty for Valentine’s Day is our chocolate dipped strawberries,” says Aime’s Love owner Jennifer Walter. She
adds that truffles are a popular choice, too, with five different flavors available. “We also make little heart-shaped cakes that feed two people perfectly,” she says. “ It’s like two cupcakes worth of cake.” For added cuteness, Aime’s Love can decorate the cakes like conversation hearts. Walter encourages placing an order well ahead of the holiday. Aime’s Love closes at 4 p.m., so don’t forget to pick up your dessert before that!
YOUR HOLIDAY There are a variety of ways to build the perfect Valentine’s Day for you and yours this year. It’s a time to treat the ones you love and also yourself with delicious wines, exciting food and—of course—lots and lots of chocolate.

Fresh from the oven pizza sold by the slice keeps customers returning again and again at Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta. (Photos courtesy Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta.)
BY-THE-SLICE ITALIAN FAVORITE BOASTS A BIG MENU OF SALADS, PASTAS AND HERO SANDWICHES
Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta is loved by local fans of East Coast-style pizza because the restaurants have always served pizza by the slice. These are no slim, scrawny, stiff pizza slices. These are the familiar huge, hot, thin, foldable slices a young John Travolta eats as he walks down the sidewalk in the opening scenes of “Saturday Night Fever.” There is another reason Anthony’s fans are so devoted. “We do everything in-house using really high-quality ingredients like whole milk mozzarella, the kind that creates that stringy cheese melt everybody loves. We make the sauce from scratch. Nothing arrives shredded in bags or frozen,” said Peter Counter, marketing manager for Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta. Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta is a truly homegrown company. It opened with one store in Denver in 1984 and has carefully expanded to 24 Anthony’s locations

on the Front Range including a busy 7-year-old store in Longmont. “As a diner I love our pizza. The reason I got into this business was because of Anthony’s great New York-style Neapolitan pizza,” said Lee Milne, operations manager for Anthony’s Pasta and Pizza in Longmont. “The pizza dough is made fresh and proofed for 24 to 48 hours. It’s hand-pushed and hand-tossed and spread on a wooden peel. The meat goes on over the sauce and under the cheese. We think that gives it the best flavor. The fresh veggies go on over the cheese,” he said.
Completely fresh ingredients go into making each delicious dish, from salads to pizzas and pastas. (Photos courtesy Anthony’s Pizza and Pasta.)
The No. 1 bestseller in Longmont is the standard cheese Neapolitan pizza. Pepperoni comes in a close second, according to Milne.
Crowd-pleasers from Caesar to hometown Heros
While slices and whole pizzas may be Anthony’s main claim to fame, the reason families are loyal is that there is something for virtually every person, no matter how picky their taste. “We aim to please everyone,” he said. There are calzones with

“Pizza by the slice is really big at noontime as part of a lunch special.” Milne said. Both slices and whole pizzas come in three tasty versions: Thin-crusted Neapolitan or White pizza and the hearty, thick-crusted Sicilian pizza. White pizzas are covered with a blend of mozzarella and ricotta cheeses with garlic and oregano. Pizzas can be customized with a lineup of dozens of toppings ranging from pepperoni and bacon to fresh basil, artichoke hearts, feta and fresh mozzarella. Black, green and Kalamata will please the olive lovers.

A customer-friendly selection of small side dishes is available including meatballs, Italian sausage or “one of each.” You can also get a side of creamy Alfredo or Marinara sauce for dipping, dunking or pouring. “One of the biggest compliments we get is that many of our customers in Longmont don’t know that this is a franchise store.

Roundhouse Fitness’s kickboxing regimen may be right for your New Year’s resolutions
BY ANDY STONEHOUSE for LONGMONT MAGAZINE After the seemingly endless spree of holiday feeding that most Americans do between Thanksgiving and the New Year, many of us are interested in yet again committing to an exercise plan that might shed those pounds and make us healthier overall. But as many of us have found, those New Year’s-resolutioninspired workout plans often peter out by Valentine’s Day, if not sooner, as the monotony of an exercise bike or free weights in a room full of grunting triathletes sets in awfully quickly. January/February 2018
Fun is always invited to class at Roundhouse Fitness. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine.)
If you’re looking for an alternative to the regular and sometimes lonely grind of the gym, plus an inspiring cardio and full-body workout that might just turn into a long-term commitment to fitness, Longmont’s Roundhouse Fitness might be your answer in 2018. The facility, located at 1067 S. Hover Street, opened last April as a community-styled project of kickboxing and cardio enthusiasts, after their previous Longmont gym closed its doors. Josh Fauske, Roundhouse’s managLongmontMagazine.com
er and one of four lead instructors, says the closure left he and a sizable crew of members looking for a new facility to practice their pastime. As a membership-run operation, Roundhouse is able to focus on programs and an instruction structure entirely geared towards healthy fun, not just an endless marketing campaign for more participants, as is often the case with many corporate gyms. “We started off with five different families who had all been previous members, and we all came

Kickboxing isn’t the only thing members practice at Roundhouse. Boot camp style classes, HIIT and self-defense are also offered to all ages. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine.)
together and created something for the people – we had a really awesome community already, and it’s grown and grown,” he says. “We are entirely member-focused, and have about 140 people taking part right now.” Roundhouse is primarily based on beginner-friendly kickboxing-centered classes and workshops, but the gym also offers advanced classes, light sparring sessions and even boot camp-styled intense classes, plus self-defense training. For those looking for a heavy-duty post-holiday calorie burn, the gym also mixes high intensity interval training – a more concentrated burst of cardio and strength training – into many of its classes. Fauske says many first-timers still mistakenly equate kickboxing with those terrible martial arts movies 54 LONGMONT MAGAZINE
“
We have all shapes and sizes here and the awesome thing is that we know every one of them and their journey and goals.” —Josh Fauske
starring Jean Claude Van Damme, or the bloody theatrics of the mixed martial arts arena. Fear not, he suggests: kickboxing at Roundhouse is fun, friendly and only as competitive as you’d like it to be. “Kickboxing has definitely grown big-time over the last few years, LongmontMagazine.com
mostly because it’s such a fun and active full-body workout,” he says. “It’s not just you by yourself doing the same routine at a gym. It’s extremely stress relieving. If you’ve had a bad day at work, there’s nothing like coming and kicking a big, heavy bag to get it all out.” More importantly, Roundhouse stresses an absolutely inclusive spirit for membership and as a result, Fauske has teenagers, seniors and people of all athletic ability taking part – a welcome antidote to traditional gym culture, especially in hyper-body-conscious Boulder County. “We have all shapes and sizes here and the awesome thing is that we know every one of them and their journey and goals. The majority of people here have struggled with fitness in the past, or have never January/February 2018
done it before,” he says. “We are their outlet and we help them through the stages of starting a workout regime, and staying dedicated to reaching their goals.” To give first-timers a welcoming but realistic impression of what kickboxing is (and isn’t), Fauske says the first class is always free, and newcomers are also welcome to try out a free, half-hourlong one-on-one training session with he or one of his fellow instructors. “Kickboxing is great but it’s not for everyone, and we understand that people want to try it out before they really jump into it,” he says.
The motto “The pain you feel today is the strength you feel tomorrow,” is proudly displayed behind rows of heavy bags. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine.)
And unlike many other organized fitness programs, Roundhouse’s programming is also relatively affordable. A New Year’s special, starting Jan. 1, offers monthly memberships priced at $66, $79 and $99. The top-of-the-line membership provides unlimited free classes plus free classes for members’ kids, plus a complimentary pair of boxing gloves and another free one-onone session with one of the instructors.

purchase Roundhouse’s top package, membership is also free to the rest of their family. Roundhouse’s classes largely focus on group kickboxing, but there are also women’s courses and family-friendly kickboxing offerings as well, plus informal, open gym sessions where everyone is encouraged to take part on a drop-in basis. As an exercise adapted from the martial arts, Fauske says kickboxing also has a strong application as a self-defense tool. Once a month, the gym hosts a Strong Women event, mixing self-empowerment with a more self-defense-oriented mix of kickboxing moves.
Instructors get some one-on-one in during class. (Tim Seibert/Longmont Magazine.)
