About this Event

The Notorious RBG, when asked in 2017 about the most important person in her life, responded, “My personal trainer.” The late Supreme Court justice’s twice-weekly workouts were credited with keeping her physically and mentally spry well into her octogenarian years and spawned a book detailing her workout regimen.

In the spirit of RBG, we invite you to a fun and high-octane workout in the magnificent Museum garden with award-winning personal trainer, published author, nutritional expert, and international speaker Melody Schoenfeld, MA, C.S.C.S. Melody will coach you up on her riff of the RBG workout, sprinkled with nutritional tips that will keep you feeling your best, inside and out. She will also demonstrate how — at 5’0 tall and 105 lbs. — she can bend metal nails and rip telephone books in half and that strength can come in any size! No matter your shape or size, you are welcome in the no-judgment Museum Garden Zone!

Come dressed to work out and bring a yoga mat or beach blanket/towel, a face towel, and a hydrating beverage.
