Domestic Violence Charity Seeks Sponsors for 100-City "Fat Burn America" Tour

    LOS ANGELES, CA, August 10, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- At a time when the world economy is sputtering and stock market charts have more peaks and valleys than the Grand Canyon, domestic violence charity founder and filmmaker, Rich Tola, is seeking sponsors for his 30,000 mile, 100 Cities in 100 Days, fundraising tour.

The Boulevard Zen Foundation (www.boulevardzen.com) teaches yoga to women and children living in domestic violence shelters. Tola, a fitness and yoga master with degrees from Wharton and Kellogg, has taught more than 15,000 students. "For 100 days straight, we'll entertain and motivate you with 100 cool, travelogue workout videos from 100 historic places throughout the United States," Tola said. "We're seeking health conscious sponsors to be included in more than 150 videos and trailers. Sponsors who believe in our cause to empower women and children survivors of domestic violence, and who support our efforts to thwart childhood and adult obesity with the help of a daily fitness program based on yoga." Plus, Tola plans to invite celebrities to join them on tour.

Tola donates his time and 10% of all DVD sales, including his film, Boulevard Zen, Rich Tola's Yoga Survival Guide and Rich Tola's 15 Minute Fat Burning Workouts, to the nonprofit. "We have a proven model to expand into domestic violence shelters in all 50 states," says Tola, "and our weekly yoga classes help stop the cycle of violence by strengthening their self-confidence and self-esteem."

In preparation for his "Fat Burn America Tour: 100 Cities in 100 Days", Tola completed a 100 day web series, 5 Minute Fat Burning Workouts: 100 Workouts in 100 Days, and the Tour's Hollywood Walk of Fame Sneak Preview, both available on YouTube: www.youtube.com/boulevardzen. Soon, his team of celebrity yoga teachers and film crew will visit historic sites throughout America, distributing 15-minute travelogue workout videos to the Internet every day for free. "We want to create a movement," Tola says, "for the world - especially America - to burn fat while helping The Boulevard Zen Foundation change lives."
