What's up?!?!

Seriously...I know several of you have the same thoughts I have everyday. How lucky am I that I have stumbled on to this "Les Mills" phenomenon? I know we are growing larger than life daily but there are people out there that still don't know; worse yet that doubt the power that is summed up in those 2 words...Les Mills!

I have over 200 instructors that I am fortunate enough to be inspired by and hopefully inspire on a daily basis. Some knew of LM, some did not. I try to educate them on LM without being pushy and it is so very rewarding when they have their "AHA" moment. Some never will and that is A-OK, but when the others do...it makes the long hours worth it.

So my LM journey continues but this time as a BodyPump Trainer in Training (TIT - as I like to call myself; no one else is going to call me that). What an amazing opportunity and what an amazing group of people to start this journey with: Megan, Kendall, Kimberly, Lissa, Brannon, Lara, Brian, Lauren, Meghan, Jeremiah, Beckey, Becky, Leslie, Lesley, Rob, Jaime, Shelley, Larissa, Erin, Jacee, Andrea. Wow, what an amazing group of people. It was just so humbling being in the same room with such amazing talent. I can't thank all of you enough for making me feel so welcome and inspiring me to work hard. I can't wait to see you in the future.

So life continues. Ella turned 15 months on June 2 and man oh man, the blessings never stop. That little girl makes my world go round. She has been the motivation behind many of my dreams. I hope that 1 day she looks back and says, "Man my mom rocked"!

Be strong, stay in the fight and inspect what you expect! Till next time...

Rachel	Hey Kellogg! You are an amazing trainer. I hope this weekend gave you as much confidence as a trainer as you gave me as an instructor. I could not have gotten to the front of our "pack" during the run without your motivation. You are such an inspiration to me, especially knowing that you're a mama, too! I am so happy to have met you. Best of luck with training to be a trainer :) Keep in touch!

uh WOW! What a great weekend and truly you were an inspirational part of that. I am so impressed by the energy, the technical skill, and the simple fact that you guys can get up there for hours at a time and make all the information "click". You rock Jacki. Though I chalk it up as one of the most challenging events I've experienced, I thank you, and all of the other trainers for making it such a life-changing experience.
