![[Post-Event Release] Solis x Fight To End Cancer: A Full-Circle Moment of Strength, Sweat & Support](https://fighttoendcancer.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/PHOTO-2025-05-08-16-26-54-2.jpg)
February 2, 2025 marked more than just another afternoon of fitness—it was a powerful celebration of community, resilience, and raising an incredible $1,300 in support of cancer research and awareness.
The Solis x Fight To End Cancer event brought together passionate individuals for an unforgettable day of movement and meaning. Participants gathered at Solis Movement and chose their path: either embracing the intensity of The Sets with Julia or powering up in the dynamic Solis Strong class with Josh. Both sessions ran simultaneously, pulsing with energy and purpose as attendees came together for a shared mission—to help create a world without cancer.
A Blast From the Past
Kristin Smith-Zuccala will be stepping into the ring on May 31 as one of the official Fight To End Cancer corporate fighters.
Last year, Julia and Josh stood in the ring as proud FTEC2023 fighters, stepping up to fight for the cause in the most literal sense. This year, they came together outside the ring as collaborators—using their passion for fitness to continue their advocacy. Their journey has now come full circle, not only by raising critical funds, but also by sponsoring FTEC2025 fighter Kristin Smith-Zuccala, who will carry the torch forward this year.
From fighters to fundraisers, from teammates to leaders—Julia and Josh embody the spirit of FTEC, proving that the fight doesn’t end after fight night. It continues in the everyday actions, community efforts, and moments of unity like this.
We’re incredibly proud and grateful to Solis Movement, Julia, Josh, and every participant who made this event a success. Your strength fuels the fight. Your support changes lives. And together, we move closer to ending cancer—one powerful rep, step, and donation at a time.
