Mocean365 Clean Up and Lean Up Day a sucess









This past Sunday we did a "guerrilla style" trail and cleanup day at the Town Forest In St Johnsbury Vt. I say guerrilla because we JUST DID IT!  We rallied some of our die hard Mocean365 crew, gathered tools and resources and went out and made the forest better than it was. Angel Roy brought and planted some beautiful flowers. Joe Fox came over with a mower and trimmer and along with Mocean Mate' tribe member Will Castle and Mocean365 Team Member Brad Grant, and myself relocated a 15 foot long bridge to a higher and drier spot. Hillary Decarlo swept the yellow trail of trash and debris while Megan Walsh, Hillary, Jen Grant and her son Jack and her nephew buffed out around the pavillion area, getting rid of trash and sweeping and beautifying.
Next up i got the saw out and cleared some trail debris then cut some pieces so we all teamed up to rebuild a problem wet area and construct a new bridge. We also did some armoring and lots of water management work, built ditches and did some selective clearing to let sun in to dry out areas.
 Tracy Gilman and Bill Bennett also helped greatly. After the work, we had a huge feed with some amazing and healthy eats so we could refuel for some fun games. A great day overall and a huge thanks to everyone who came out and participated. I encourage anyone to do the same at their favorite spots!
So remember to come check out the Town Forest and join Mocean365 for a Zone To Zone Action Workout on Mondays and Wednesdays from 6-7 ish PM right in St Johnsbury. It is an amazing spot and expect varied dynamic full body conditioning for all levels from beginner to advanced. Cost is 12$ OR do both classes per week and only pay $10 per class.  Hope to see you all there. Call 802-888-6262 with any questions or email me at mocean365@gmail.com

Fitness in the Forest with Mocean365


Mocean365 has teamed up with the St Johnsbury Recreation Department to bring "Fitness in the Forest with Mocean365" to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Here is the official press release from the Caledonian Record newspaper.

St. J Rec Introduces Fitness in the Forest

"Mocean 365 fitness guru Skye Nacel will soon be leading a series of challenging workouts guaranteed to work your body the way it was designed. The “Fitness in the Forest” series begins Monday, May 4th at 5:30pm at the Rotary Pavilion in the Town Forest and will run six consecutive weeks. The goal of the class is to help participants increase flexibility, strength, conditioning, balance, endurance, posture and overall performance while having fun in a great outdoor setting. Nacel says to “Expect plenty of good old fashioned “Rocky” style movements like squats, lunges, pushups, dips along with medicine ball work, the creative use of trees, logs, old tires, sprints, and intervals to gain new upper and lower body strength. We’ll progress into the “New School” with the Indo Board Balance Trainer, TRX Suspension Trainer, the 360 Board, hurdles, power bands and more. The program is progressive and will be modified for different fitness levels for clients with a clean bill of health from their doctor.”

Nacel, a Danville resident, has been certified by the IFPA, NCSF, Renegade Training, and will soon be adding ISSA Strength and Conditioning Specialist. His business Mocean 365 is a combination of his passions for action sports photography and conditioning. He is CPR Certified and a member of IDEA and a member of Indo Board Fitness Advisory Board. According to Recreation Director Joe Fox “He is one of the most energetic and inspiring people you will ever meet. Skye has a great ability to meet people where they are at and push them to beyond their self imposed limits. He creates an awesome atmosphere in classes where people push each other in a totally friendly and supportive manner. His lifestyle is a testament to the value of fitness. I have skied and snowboarded several times with Skye, and the guy rips! Whatever your passion is in life, these classes will take your performance to the next level.”
