BodyBalance instructors course - A life altering experience

13 December 2009 - The St Lucia Festive Day (a tradition of song, crown of lights, ginger cookies and saffran buns)

My entire weekend has been spent in the space of Pilates, Yoga, Tai Chi which is a training form called BodyBalance (by Les Mills). I have woken up ligaments, muscles and joints that I have never been in contact with before! Oh My! What a treat! Imagine a space with 22 enthusiastic individuals with completely different ages, backgrounds, lifesituations and experiences. Each one there to find out the 'secret' of BodyBalance. The room that we spent all day Friday, all day Saturday and all day Sunday in was comfortably designed in purple colors, wooden floor and loaded with blankets and yoga mats. Kristin, our trainer and instructor, was one of the most beautiful human beings I have met in my life; a bundle of joy, love and generosity!

Now, down to the nittygritty; I am not kidding if I tell you that we have put our bodies through a serious numbers of Down Dogs, Cobras, Warrior 1-3, Scorpions, balance poses, abdominal and back training... Loads of fun and very challenging! The atmosphere between us individuals grew stronger and warmer by the minute. By the time we said goodbye at 5pm today, Sunday, many of us shed a tear. The end of the course is the beginning of my journey as a BodyBalance instructor! Yiiiihaaa!

Tomorrow is time for a BodyPump class at Gymnasium Sisjön, at 6pm - will feel great to load the bar with heavy weights!



Wishing you a great week coming up! Do what you wish to do and do it well - you MAY as well!

Take care!
