Comeback of the Power-Bearnie
Doris von Allmen is giving her comeback as Power-Bearnie. The wife of Konrad von Allmen gave birth to a sweet baby girl and was therefore unable to act as Power Bearnie last year.

ElliptiGO the ultimate exercise machine
There is a novelty waiting at the Powerman Zofingen expo arena. ElliptiGo, the ultimate exercise machine – a composition of cross trainer and bike is now available in Switzerland. The gentle, elliptic movement minimizes the pressure on bones and joints but offers an intensive outdoor training. www.elliptigo.ch

Bad luck for Eurodancers manager
The Eurodancers successfully defended their Swiss Champion title during the Cheerdance championships in St. Gallen at May 12. Unfortunately, the manager and team member Flora Maurer tore their cruciate ligament and can support her team mates in Zofingen at September 1 and 2 only as visitor. www.eurodancers.ch
