New Kids on the Block: Lamphere Parents

Scroll down a bit and you'll see the New Kids post for Drew and Josh. They are still going strong, but Josh's dad was curious about joining, brought his wife in yesterday, and now both Mr. and Mrs. VanDoorn are signed up for Fundamentals!

Mr. VanDoorn is a Dondero grad and was a baseball player in high school. He was really nervous about joining because of how out of shape he is. He's actually not as bad as he claims and I've seen much worse after two days. He's had a habit in the past of getting on the health train for the New Year only to let it slip back into bad habits. This time around he's set on keeping the ball rolling.

Mrs. VanDoorn is a lifelong Madison Heights resident and a Madison High School grad. She played volleyball there and hasd continued her athletic lifestyle into her adult years with kickboxing and other bootcamps. The biggest problem area for her so far is her midline control; hollow holds aren't going too great. But she's flexible and coordinated in most other movements, and that has helped her work with a nagging elbow/shoulder thing.

Both seem like good fits for our culture and a good influence for their son Josh. I'll check back in after Day 5.
