According to Amber Carter, some women want a traditional workout, and others want something a little spicier. At Carter’s new Downtown
Grand Ledge studio,
Sugar & Spice Fitness Boutique, there’s something for women of either taste.
“It really focuses on woman empowerment,” Carter says. “It doesn’t matter about your body size, you will be celebrated at our studio. We want people to feel sexy.”
Sugar and Spice Fitness Boutique offers the typical workout classes, such as yoga and pilates, as well as alternative programs, including burlesque, pole fitness, belly dancing, among others.
“We’d like it to just be a positive place for women in the community,” says Carter. “We teach confidence as a means for fitness.”
The new studio opened about three months ago in a 2,000 square foot location on North Bridge Street in Grand Ledge. Sugar and Spice employs eight instructors. Carter plans to open a second studio in Lansing in about a year.
