Santa Fe Business Spotlight: Genoveva Chavez Community Center

There are lots of outdoors activities to do in Santa Fe but sometimes its good to find a place you can go to that is completely devoted to fitness and wellness. What better way than spending your time in the Genoveva Chavez Community Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico?

This place is certainly not your average gym! You can be on a bike and look down over the skating rink or walk on a stairmaster and get lost in the shimmering blue of the swimming pool below.

Spinning classes, yoga classes, stretching casses...

Racquet ball, basketball,volleyball... you just have to find your niche.

The Chazez Center is located next door to the Rodeo Grounds in Southeast Santa Fe. Just couple of miles from Rancho Viejo Santa Fe, Nava Ade Santa Fe, Oshara Village and Pueblos del Sol Santa Fe.

I have never seen such an admirable expression of contemporary architecture in a gym!

The Chazez Center is the ultimate example that no matter what you are doing in Santa Fe New Mexico, even if it's running on the treadmill, you can still be surrounded by art and culture. If you are looking for a home in Northeast Santa Fe Real Estate or Northwest Santa Fe Real Estate, I can help you find what you are looking for. Just give me a call or email me, anytime!

The current national economic slowdown may be depressing sales in certain markets," she added.

What started out as a housing problem in a few states has now exploded into a full-fledged recession with a majority of states now in or dangerously close to recession.

What started as a recession in just a few states has now spread to 27 with another 14 states near recession, according to Mark Zandi,

chief economist and co-founder of Moody's Economy.com.

Just this weekend, President Bush's top economic advisor used the much-avoided word "recession" to describe the economies in some states.

"We are seeing what I think anyone would characterize as a recession in certain parts of the country," Edward P. Lazear,

chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said on CNN's "Late Edition."

Back in March, Mark Zandi, chief economist and co-founder of Moody's Economy.com, said that only five states were in recession: Arizona, California, Florida, Michigan and Nevada.
