Austin, TX and Boise, ID – May 4, 2016 – TriggerPoint is proud to sponsor the REI Outessa Summit, outdoor weekend getaways for women which offers authentic outdoor adventures led by professional athletes and guides. In its inaugural year, the two separate weekend getaways will be held at Kirkwood Resort near Lake Tahoe, California, from August 19 to 21, and Powder Mountain near Salt Lake City, Utah from September 9 to 11. Registration for these events is now open.
As part of the partnership, TriggerPoint, the official foam roller and recovery partner for REI Outessa Summit, will host foam rolling and mobility sessions throughout the weekend to teach benefits of foam rolling, and to educate women on how to incorporate self-care into their daily routine.
“Our mission at TriggerPoint is to empower individuals to live out their passion through an active and healthy lifestyle,” said Janelle Ronquillo, Brand Director for TriggerPoint. “REI Outessa Summit perfectly complements what we stand for. This partnership is an exciting opportunity to build upon the mission of empowerment, passion, health and providing an inspiring experience to these women.”
“Through the REI Outessa Summit, we are offering women the opportunity to try something new and experience some unforgettable outdoor adventures,” said Julia Stamps Mallon, co-Founder and VP of Business Development of Eventus Outdoors, the company behind REI Outessa Summit. “We are excited that TriggerPoint has signed on as our foam rolling and recovery partner.”
These weekends boast flexibility and variety as each attendee will be able to customize her schedule, although choosing classes might be the biggest challenge as more than 200 options exist. Camping, backpacking, kayaking, outdoor cooking, mountain biking, paddle boarding, rock climbing, yoga, hiking and trail running are some of the activities offered.
Mallon added, “After three days, Outessa women will find inspiration in their peers as well as in their own new-found abilities. We want them to connect with the outdoors and each other during these unforgettable weekends.”
