Profile

Hey all, my name is Leiana and I sometimes feel like I'm about 20 years too late for all this! I had never been to a group fitness class in my life until April of 2007--always too shy, worked out alone, behind closed doors. But sometimes God has plans for us that we don't know about! I got cajoled into going to a Body Pump class and absolutely loved it. It wasn't at all what I expected. I was asked to get training to become an instructor and thought, "HUH?? ME??" But I did my training last June with Barb Maurer (fantastic trainer!) and have not looked back. When I was asked to do Step training I thought, "Sure, why not?" I find Step much more challenging to learn, but I love how Pump and Step compliment each other. Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I'd be teaching seven classes a week at my age and still wanting more. I love educating participants and helping them reach their goals. I want everyone to realize that good health is a precious thing, something that people need and that it's worth taking that one hour a day for themselves in order to stay healthy--no matter how old you are or what shape you're in to begin with. Blessings!

Leianna!!
What a great surprise! I don't check the LM site that much, but when I do, I check to see if you have posted anything new....guess you don't get on here much either!

So, moving huh? Moving is hard work! Are you in the same town/different house? or did you leave and move completely?

Yes! Definitely, let me know when you are coming through Omaha so we can hook up and get you to a class with me! My schedule is on my profile...Mon am at the Y and Tues/Thurs noon at Gold's. If you come when I am not teaching, that's ok too......we can just get together and chat and call up Kelly to join us if you want! I am also now on facebook if you want to look for me there too. (last name Daubach)

Good luck to your son with his add'l schooling! How awesome is that for him?

Happy unpacking!
Niki

Leiana-

Hey girl! How did all your launches go? are you still standing? Things have settled down a little in my schedule.....still subbing for someone else for the next couple of weeks which adds an extra day to my normal load, but I'm hanging in there......enjoying the fall weather and the new release. Hope all is well with you.

Take care,
Niki

Hey Leiana,

We finally meet each other at the Quarterly 15 months later! Isn't that destiny? I still remember we were trying to coach each other moving around the step without speaking a word. Hope we all do it better now. =)))

Keep STEPUMPing!

Leiana-
Wow! you have WAAAAAY more going on than I do with your upcoming schedule...makes me feel better mentally, although my body is starting to feel the effects of the past 5 days now!
You said you are envious of my having the biceps track, but I am envious of your triceps track! I wanted both of them, but I won't be picky cuz I will have ALL of them to myself soon enough! We do the same thing at my gyms too. At Gold's we have too many to have everyone launch, so they choose 5 to launch--3 on stage while the others are on the floor or floating...others can come and be in the crowd, but only 5 presenting. At the Y, everyone can come if they want, but it usually ends up that someone is not available, so we just make it work with whoever is there. If there is enough equipment, we all present the warm up, and then usually have 3 for each track after while the others float. That one starts on Sat at 7:15am, and my Gold's launch is at 10am.....oh motrin, I hear you calling my name in the afternoon when I come down from the adrenaline rush of launches!!

Hey, I love your new pics-good to see the one of Kelly too!
Chat soon-take care!

Leiana,

Thanks for the note. Good luck to your son in his big decision for school. How awesome that he has so many great choices...if he comes here, you definitely should look us up....maybe we can team teach with all three of us!!

I can just see you all doing pump in the car on your drive home....we were doing the same thing on the plane! I subbed today for Kelly's noon pump class, and I was still high from the wkd, so it was one of my best! I love it! I sub again tomorrow for someone else, and than have my own class on Thurs-geez! Talk about abusing my body, huh? I have Fri off and then launch at BOTH gyms on Sat-then back to my regular class on Mon again.......I hope I survive!

Hope your launch on Mon is rockin' hot! What tracks are you doing in pump? I have biceps and lunges at one gym and abs/cool down in the other. Have a great week~
