BODYBALANCE™

BODYBALANCE 42 is beast that needs taming. Familiar choreography centres us in our Tai Chi, before we celebrate the Shiva Salutations. Manual manipulation forces us to experience deeper lunges in the Standing Strength, and then we roll in and out of Warrior 3 for the Balance track. Difficult stretches in the Hip Openers, and rolling extensions in the Abdominals provide more challenges. We work our cobra pose in the back track before we slide down into our Twists and finsh with the highlight of this release... a brilliant Forward Folds track. A great remix of Sleep by Conjure One (requested by yours truly!)

******************************************************

I'm a mad presenter. I have fun with the role, and enjoy it. Some of my instructor friends think that I'm a little fanatical with my enthusiasm... wanting to know the latest and greatest news concerning BODYBALANCE, and then I spread it all over the world using my Facebook page.

For a long time my all time favourite release was #32, though I recently had to address this and re-evaluate. My new all time favourite is #40. Great music and choreography - such as joyful, happy release - which suits my personality moreso that any other release we have seen.

Release #42 will see me in England with fellow BALANCE-er, Chris, to give the Brits a little Aussie flavour!

So watch out... here I come :)

To pay the bills I work at a TAFE here in Melbourne in event management, and for some reason I've gone back to school to work towards a Graduate Certificate in Sustainability ... where do I find the energy?

The answer is BODYBALANCE.

Hi Duncan

So good to hear from you. Haven't actually seen the new BB didn't go to the quarterly and haven't even had the opportunity to look at the DVD, have listened to the music though, once, sounds really beautiful. Been so busy with parent-in-laws, don't seem to have enough hours in the day. Luckily we aren't introducing for another week usually would be doing the first 6 tracks today, but not until next Monday. Hopefully things will settle down for me to learn them.

Hope all is well with you. Bet it's cold as were freezing our butts off up here gotta be cold your way then!

Take Care my friend

Hi Duncan

Thanks for dropping by. I'm well, just not on the forum as much at the moment, busy learning and relearning chorrey 4 programmes keep me going full on, when I'm not on the forums check in here quickly for messages then onto Facebook quite addicted to that at the moment but that will wear off eventually too and be back here fulltime.

Hope all is well with you and enjoying Balance. I'm just looking at #28 for tomorrow mornings class.

Take care
Connie

hello there.
wow you are off to the mother country to show them how the professionals do balance. Have a blast and look forward to details later. Well in terms of sat balance life and lunches with friends has been getting in the way, lol. However a consious effort will be made for either this weekend or next. Otherwise took a week or so off to let sore bits mend and then ordered by other half to get back to the gym as apparently going a bit bonkers, lol.Currently tossing up gel vs cert 3, we shall see. hope all is good with you and that gorgeous puppy dog
