Announcements

Alexandria, VA | Revolutionary Fitness, an Old Town-based coaching studio, has announced the launch of Revolutionary 50+, a 12-week semi-private training program designed specifically for men and women over 50 who want to build strength, energy, and long-term health.

The program addresses what owner Charles Augustine calls “a massive gap” in the fitness industry. “The mainstream either treats people over 50 like they’re 25 and breaks them, or treats them like they’re fragile and does nothing for them,” Augustine said. “There’s almost no middle ground, the smart, age-appropriate strength training that the longevity research actually says works.”

You don’t need Spanish to know how to party.

Saturday, May 9th | 7 PM – 2 AM

Creative activities help prevent learning loss by keeping young minds active, encourage healthier habits by reducing excess screen time, and strengthen essential skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and imagination.

It’s even better in a focused, supportive and positive environment, like the opportunities for kids at Made in ALX’s Summer Art Camps.

The League of Women Voters of Arlington and Alexandria City, in partnership with Arlington County Public Library, invites you to an open discussion on managing local government in a changing environment.

Join Arlington County Manager Mark Schwartz and Alexandria City Manager Jim Parajon for a conversation about how local governments are adapting to shifts in federal funding and changes at the state level. The discussion will explore how these evolving conditions may impact local priorities, services, and decision-making in our communities.

At some point a lot of guys realize they don’t really have a friend group anymore.

Not in a dramatic way. Friends move away, people get busy, and actually seeing the same guys regularly almost never happens.

ICA Language Services (ICA), a family-owned, woman-led small business based in Arlington, is celebrating its 40th anniversary, marking decades of supporting the U.S. military and diplomatic community through language training and testing.

Founded in April 1986 as Inlingua Foreign Language Center, a 6-classroom language school, ICA expanded under the leadership of Deidre Doyle, an entrepreneur with a background in organizational management who joined the company the same year. As a military spouse, she had developed a deep understanding of military organizations and culture, helping shape ICA into a trusted provider of language training and testing for military professionals. Doyle became a partner in 1993 and sole owner in 2009, when she changed the name to ICA Language Services.

Most gyms will take your money and hand you a treadmill. Revolutionary Fitness does something different.

Located in Old Town at 215 N. Payne Street, Revolutionary Fitness is Alexandria’s only semi-private personal training studio built exclusively for people over 50 who refuse to slow down. Whether your’ve worked out your whole life or are just getting started most fitness programs treat it like an afterthought.

Last Thursday, twelve Alexandria residents came to our medical-grade DEXA scanner last week. The machine doesn’t lie; it measures exactly how much fat you carry, how much muscle you have, and how dense your bones are.

The results were remarkable. Not because of where people started. Because of how far they’d already come.

This week — April 6 through 11 — every class at EvolveAll Martial Arts and Training Studio is free to try. No experience needed, no membership required.

New ongoing Self-Defense classes and more Fitness Bootcamp options are now on the schedule — two programs that members have been asking for.
