Profile

I learned on release 49 and got certified to teach BP at the age of 55! I had never taught a fitness class before so it was a proud moment for me! I am trying to be real and true to my own essence in addition to the essence of the program. I never tire of this program which is why it is the only one I feel inspired to teach. I am now 60 and don't push heavy weights, I will leave that for you younger ones! I inspire in other ways!! lol This has helped the older members feel they can also do this program and get the benefits while loving the music and the experience. My motto is something is better than nothing when it comes to exercise and our bones as we get older. My music goes back to release 32 so I am able to add a lot of variety with songs and I mix it up a lot! This has allowed me to really crank out the tunes and sing along not that I am any good at that!

    Thank you re: CARDIO. :) Honestly, if people put as much energy working out or doing good as they do picking on people and being a curmudgeon, life would be much nicer. Sorry if I added to that thread - I just couldn't stand one more LM instructor slam. :P Have a most EXCELLENT day. YOU are inspiring.

    Hope you enjoy the cookies Joanne. And I have to say I'm impressed when I find someone else my age and older teaching LM, ROCK ON!

    Hi, it certainly was a pleasure. Just shows how small the world really is and how great the LMI team really is. Sorry to hear you did not find the cat. Try the SPCA in Newmarket. Unfortunately it did not wok out with the dog. She was very sweet and cuddly till the point she decided to remove one of my fingers. Fortunately she did not succeed but it still meant a trip to the hospital. So sad, she was a sweet little girl and the people there were really fond of her. Very sad. Looks I will be sidelined for a few days. Hope to talk again soon. Ray
