Hi! I'm Erin.

By day, I'm a mild-mannered copywriter. Hmm... "Mild-mannered" goes without saying, I guess - I *am* Canadian, after all. Evenings and weekends, I'm an instructor with GoodLife Fitness in Calgary.

I'm certified in BodyPump (37), BodyFlow (14), BodyStep (49), BodyCombat (11), BodyJam (35) and RPM (20). I trained in BodyAttack (51) but never got around to certifying - someday I may go through with it though... Presently I teach my four faves: Pump, Combat, Jam and Flow.

I spent about 5 years in the GFM role, and during that time I mentored dozens of new instructors into all of the LMI programs. Even though I'm no longer the GFM, mentoring new instructors is absolutely one of my favourite things to do. I love watching a die-hard member make the transition to passionate instructor. As soon as one of them turns up to the club wearing a $150 mail-order LMI top from New Zealand, that's when I know they've really *arrived.* :)

I've been teaching the programs for 8 or so years, and am hooked on LMI to the point where I'm seriously considering a tattoo. In fact, a few years' back I came very close to getting the "Five Circles" tattooed somewhere on my body... but then, all of a sudden, there were Seven Circles! Now there are Eight Circles! As soon as LMI stops adding programs, THEN maybe I'll get my tattoo. *grin*

Enjoyed reading your comment in the forum on the subject of 'BodyJam Not Working For Me'. I agree exactly with what you said and you wrote your thoughts in a rational well considered manner. Nice to see in those forums when some comments can be so negative and provocative/rude.

Had to laugh at your comment on the "Re using tracks"..

People are weird are they not..perhaps we should set up their Quarterly whinge festival post for them!

Mind you, we won't have to as they are more than appy to repeat themselves, ad nauseum.

Did you make any decisions on dropping a programme?

I get such a kick out of your posts - cassette tapes for Flow...lord almighty BUT I do have some Combat/Attack releases from back in the day on cassette tape though I sort of inherited as I didn't train until 24......still seems ages ago!

I just got certified for Jam and absolutely love it....can't get enough of it! I'm chomping at the bit to see what G pulls out for 50!

Ah Erin,

Just thought I'd let you know I always read your posts with a big smile on my face..clever, funny..and with a firm dose of reality..

If it makes you feel any better ( and nothing Nickelback do will ever make me feel that way ), we here in Oz must have a Can-Con agreement too.....

That post was pure gold.

Very insightful on a serious level, but also deliciously satirical on a comedy level.

Just shows it's quality not quantity of comments that matters.

Hi Eric,
Thank you very much for a comment. I’ve come this page and marveled at what a super woman you are. If I have a chance to go to Canada, I really want to visit your BC, BB and BJ class.
And I really hope that instructors around me also pick up "Black Parade" at least once a month.
