Go Yellow!
Finally, everything has fallen into place! For those that have been following my blog will know that I’ve been working as a Club Trainer (red shirt) at Zest for a few months now, and part of the process is that once you’re “ready” you switch over to running your own personal business as a Personal [...]
BODYBALANCE 37
We’ve been doing the new balance for a couple of weeks now, but I haven’t gotten around to writing about this release, so here it is now. As always, I love each release of balance. The longer I teach, the less I find stuff I don’t like, and that goes for all the programs. But [...]
Taking it easy…
well I’ve had the flu this week, so needless to say I’ve been taking it a bit easier. It really hit me Tuesday and I only got out of bed once on Tuesday to feed animals and reschedule clients. Back into it Wednesday though which nearly left me gasping for air after combat. The rest [...]
Difference between styles of music…
As told to me by Eryx on msn:
“Ah but it’s quite simple. Trance is what it sounds like, music meant to calm you and put you in a trance… dance is techno with lyrics, slower tempo. techno is slower music without lyrics, or just one-liners or so. Happy hardcore is music at about 160-195 BPM [...]First Frost
We had our first frost this morning and the forecast for tonight is supposed to go down to -2C. I HATE the cold. I want summer back
For those that come from other countries, please note that we don’t get snow here, so temps like that is waaaay too cold for me.
Give me 40C [...]BODYCOMBAT 32
I’ve surprised myself quite a lot and discovered that I’m actually liking release 32 a bit more than I thought I would! I taught it in my class for the first time tonight, but not the entire class. I got Brandon (a fairly new instructor that hasn’t taught on his own yet) to help me [...]

Balance after BODYPUMP 62 launch
After the bodypump launch I had my usual (non-launch) balance class. Only one of the members that dressed up for the pump launch stayed for balance, so I took that opportunity to get piccies after the class.
But I didn’t wear those shorts for balance though!BODYPUMP 62 launch
As mentioned in my blog the theme for our BODYPUMP62 launch was Tiaras/feathers/leather/lace with an optional gold coin donation to the Cancer Council. I haven’t yet checked how much was donated from the class, but it was great to see quite a few members put something in. Some didn’t actually bring purses in with them [...]
Pump Team Teach
Had an amazing time in my pump class this morning. An instructor friend from Melbourne (Wayne) came over to Adelaide for the weekend and pumped with me
It was fantastic to be able to have a fun, relaxing team teach without some of the political issues that go on, or the stress that is [...]Soy Milk
I think Wayne and Emily have fully gotten me onto Soy milk. I’ve always been kinda funny with milk…….I’m very very fussy and although I have it in cereal these days (muesli) I just tolerate it rather than like it. Emily is vegetarian so we bought some Soy milk and I was keen to try [...]
