We were invited by Ms. Mariko Takahashi to demonstrate Phiten products to her students in  aerodance and maternitybic (maternity-aerobic) class.

Around 12 students participated in the aerodance class demo. Here are some of the pictures of the class.

Ms. Mariko Takahashi has taught aerobics in Japan for 16 years. When she moved to the United States, she couldn’t forget her passion for exercise and decided to teach aerobic for ready-to-be-mothers and students who want to go back in shape. Ms. Mariko emphasizes on working out regularly because it will help the blood circulation, shoulder aches, constipation, and even weight loss! She uses our necklace to prevent herself from getting sores from her fun yet intense classes. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to perform Phiten demonstrations to your students, Ms. Mariko!

Above is the board where we placed our photos taken during the 2009 Christmas Campaign.  We had Santa Claus raffle out a free gift at the shop on the last weekend before Christmas.  Unfortunately, many of the photos came out blurry so we didn’t get to post them all.

Here are some of the photos.

This was our second year that we had Santa (Jim) during the event.

A little background on Jim the Santa Clause

Jim (Santa Clause in the photo above) is a gardener by profession. In his spare time, he lends his hands to the needy. He drives out to senior homes every week to give gifts, do activity, and just spread some love. He donates his own time and money to bring smiles to people’s faces all over the world. On the days that Jim came over to do Santa Clause for us, he brought some gifts to give away to the children of our customers.

Once in a while we have customers that request a custom made accessory. There are many reasons that one would want to have a custom made Phiten. The bracelet above, is made from a high-end Phiten necklace called the Mirror Necklace. The customer wanted something that appears fashionable compared to the more sporty designs that we normally carry.

Below is one that we twisted the MLB Dodgers with an NBA Lakers necklace. These are just a couple of the unique creations that resulted from customer requests.
