I’ve just got home after 2 sweaty classes and have been reflecting on yet another fab-u-lous week 💃🏻🕺🏻🪩🪑🏋🏻‍♀️
My classes may be small but my customers are wonderful, loyal and welcoming.
This was highlighted especially in my FitSteps class this evening where one of my regulars brought a guest who is visiting from Spain.
She was amazing and it showed that the language of music and dance transcends everything.

Exercise should not be a chore.
It should bring you joy and a sense of accomplishment or maybe even peace because you have some ‘me’ time.

Don’t beat yourself up because you didn’t go to the gym/do the class as you’ll create negative associations.
Rather - congratulate yourself when you do that bit of movement to get your heart pumping and celebrate the little wins.

I love what I do. I hope you do too 😍😅

I run a dance fitness class called FitSteps (inspired by the dance genres seen on Strictly) on a Monday evening in Sedbergh Peoples Hall from 7:15-8:15pm but am charged for the whole evening until midnight.
For various reasons, this is not viable long term.
I need to either add another class starting at 8:30pm, such as my Complete fitness class (strength/core/cardio) or find another venue with a hard floor.
Does anyone know of another suitable, affordable local venue I could use or who would like a late class? 🙏

I am not a natural runner. I’d go as far as to say I don’t like running 😬
However, I like improving my performance, I LOVE the endorphins at the end of a workout and the sense of achievement.
I coach others to choose activities they love so they stick to it and it’s not a chore so why have I started running?
I want to do Dentdale Run next year so having the goal will be good for me and this app seems to be really good to make sure running isn’t painful, frustrating and something I avoid but hopefully something I enjoy and can be proud of….

Happy Sunday everyone 🏃🏻‍♀️

Team 🔥 or team 🕺🏻

Midweek decision time!

We all have a favourite rhythm that makes us want to move. If you had to pick just ONE style to dance for the rest of the week, which side are you choosing?

🔥 TEAM FAST & FIERY (Bring on the Jive, Quickstep, and Cha Cha energy!)
🕺🏻 TEAM SMOOTH & ELEGANT (Give me the grace of the Waltz, American Smooth, and Rumba!)

Are you team 🔥 or team 🕺🏻 ?

Cast your vote in the comments below and let's see which side wins the midweek battle!

“Breast cancer doesn’t care who you are” which is why all women over 50 are invited for screening. Don’t put off checking your breasts every month and going to your mammogram appointment 🍈🍈
