For Warrior Pride Fitness members cost is $500 and for non-WPF members cost is $750 (includes cost of banner). If you are interested, please visit our website and complete and submit the “Banner Purchase Form” along with a check for $500 or $750 made payable to: Warrior Pride Fitness. Or give us a call. You can bring these by the gym or mail them to our address above. Once your banner is in place we will let you know and provide photos of your support. Thanks for considering this opportunity!
Subject: Important Update Regarding Membership Transactions
Dear Warrior Pride Fitness Members,
I hope this message finds you well. We appreciate your continued commitment to our fitness community here at WPF.
In an effort to continually provide the highest quality services and maintain the affordability of our membership, we periodically review our operational expenses. As you know, we have been presented with an opportunity to significantly decrease our operating costs, which allows us to continue focusing on improving your experience at the gym.
Traditionally, we have absorbed the processing fees associated with membership transactions using a credit card. However, a recent change in our payment system, Wodify, now enables these processing fees to be passed on to the individual members. This change allows us to maintain the current quality of our services without raising membership prices.
Starting from August 1, 2023 , a 3.9% processing fee will be added to each transaction paid by credit card. This fee will be clearly visible as a separate line item on your invoice. Please note that this is a common practice, and many businesses use this approach to keep their primary costs transparent and fair.
We understand that this change may initially come as a surprise, and we are committed to answering any questions or concerns you may have. Our primary goal is, and always has been, to provide you with the best service and experience possible.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support of our gym community. We are excited about the future and look forward to continuing our fitness journey together. If you have any questions or would like to switch to a different payment method, that does not include this fee, please reach out to Gordon Pritz at gordon@warriorpridefitness.com.
Gratefully, Warrior Pride Fitness

Second Lt. Emily Jazmin Tatum Perez, 23, was killed Sept. 12, 2006, when her Humvee was struck by an improvised explosive device as she was leading a convoy through Al Kifl, Iraq. She served in the 204th Support Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 4th Infantry Division of the U.S. Army.
Perez graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in 2005. She was an exemplary student and became the highest-ranking African-American female cadet in the history of West Point. An exceptional athlete, Perez was a sprinter on the track team (200 m) and competed in the triple jump. She also excelled at gymnastics and squats. Her favorite movements included sprinting, double-unders, pull-ups, squats and power cleans.
Perez earned numerous awards for her military service, including the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, Army Commendation Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, Army Service Ribbon, Overseas Service Ribbon, and the Combat Action Badge. She was also posthumously awarded the NCAA Award of Valor in 2008.
Perez was the first female African-American officer in U.S. military history to die in combat and the first female West Point graduate to die in the Iraq War. She is survived by her parents, Daniel and Vicki; brother, Kevyn; and many classmates and friends.
