Qualified To Teach

Kia ora all,

Just back from an AMAZING trip to Kona, Hawaii! Over 10 days I trained about 40 peeps in both RPM and FLOW at 'The Club in Kona' by far this Club has the best 'community ' going on!

All the instructors are so dedicated and self-less and take so much pride in their work! They were like big sponges absorbing
as much info as the could :-)

And the members well they love Les Mills! For many it has changed their lives!

I want to thank all the crew at the club for embracing not only Les Mills but myself. I miss you all and i know have developed friendships for life with all of you!

Until next time, Kia Kaha,
Dan

Joe	Hey Dan! Bummer that I'm going to miss riding with you in MD. :-( I'll be sure to catch you at the next super-Q though. We're finally back from New Zealand! Quite an amazing country. I'm amazed you decided to leave. Not that SF isn't a bad place, but WOW! NZ pics are online here: http://greyskyy.myphotoalbum.com/view_album.php?set_albumName=album57

Aloha Dan, just wanted to thank you again for a very inspiring (and exhausting weekend, although I have to say I never worked that hard and enjoyed it before =) You are a top notch "coach" and I know we all enjoyed having you here. Hope you guys had fun on your off time, the island has so much to offer. If you guys are ever back on the island and want to know some secret hideaways, drop me a line and I will draw you a map!!
I am looking forward to launching RPM next month. Mahalo!!

WOW!! Simply put, you are the most phenominal, inspiring, motivational, adrenaline-filled instructor I have ever had the pleasure to work under!! You were flawless for our RPM Certification this past weekend!! Two filled days of intensity and a world of knowledge all given without the slightest hesitation. Every minute of the two days were planned so well. Thank you for everything!! I learned so much this weekend: I learned all about what an amazing family the LesMills name is about; to reach out and accept me, I learned I had more inside of me than I ever thought I had, and I learned the true meaning of dedication, devotion, and mind over matter; just to name a couple. Two years ago, I never would have thought I would be where I am today. I will, forever, be grateful for the LesMills programs. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to help me finish up my Quality Assurance for my track - you could have said no, but you didn't - thank you for that!! Yay!! I passed!! Now, only 8 more tracks to go.. LOL Thank you for bringing a little bit of what you are all about to our little island of Hawaii...

Until we meet again (and we will meet again), Dan, thank you and have a wonderful trip home.

I just wanted to say how great it was to take two RPM classes with you instructing. I am looking forward to the body flow cert this weekend. I have to say how much I love Les Mills and how much they have changed my life. I take all the Les Mills classes our gym offers, Body Flow, Combat, Jam and Pump I guess I will be adding RPM to the list in December. I have lost 68 lbs. since last December, it's not even just what I've lost it's also about what I have gained self confidence, better health and wonderful friends and a great addiction. I will forever be thankful to Les Mills for what it has done for me and I'm not even done yet. Thank you for being inspiring.

DAN!!

Thank you so very much for coming to STATE for our LIVESTRONG ride!! Sorry it's taken me so long to thank you, but we really did appreciate it. The video we took got taped over, but the silver lining is that it was more RPM! We'll just have to have you back again and tape another class. Thanks for your inspiration. Our instructors and participants were buzzing for days!! How did the Texas ride go? We'll work out a plan for next year and keep you posted!

Thanks again,
Maia

P.S. I have pics coming too!

Aloha from Hawaii Dan!!

I just heard you will be teaching our RPM Certification this weekend! I am so excited about it! Can't wait to meet you in person - I've heard so much about you. It's going to be such an amazing experience to have one of the best in our Club, teaching us a LesMills class!

My wife, Angie, and I love all of the LesMills classes! They have truly changed our lives for the better.

The class is completely full and anxious!! I am gratefull to be one of them!!

I will see you on Saturday morning.. Thank you, in advance, for taking the time to do this for us.

Aloha,

Tim
