This week's guest is a HUGE part of Model Me!
We have co-founder + director of BLOK, who is also an incredibly talented photographer - Max Oppenheim. 
Max is featuring on the Model Me Panel - for our "TRENDING: NOW + NEXT" event this Sunday @ Kalifornia Kitchen - for more info click here.
BLOK has been a huge inspiration to me personally, because every class I've ever done at BLOK has been nothing short of extremely empowering. The staff at the front reception are always so welcoming + friendly, it makes me look forward to just walking into the building. I've built an awesome relationship with some killer trainers there and have some classes that are a non-negotiable-I-must-do-it-weekly. Ellya Sam's barre class, Paul's boxing, and anything by Corinne + Caleb is always a KILLER! It's like having multiple personal trainers, they understand what I can stretch to, and also how to push my limits. To work with BLOK with our Model Me events was something I only once imagined - and now, we do our events their MONTHLY! If you couldn't tell - I'm VERY excited for you to hear this podcast!
