Progressing with my Silver Ballroom and Latin routines that l am learning with my awesome teacher John Paul, and I have almost mastered the Cha Cha and Salsa ... Arms have always been a challenge for me but l have surprisingly picked this up a lot quicker this time round and really loving the Cha Cha routine. What l do have a giggle about, are some of the Salsa dance move names in my routine - "The Texas Tommy", "Sling Shot", "Hammer hold" at first l thought JP was making them up but they are in fact names derived from the Apache dance..lots of turns but once you get going with it, its so much fun. I also find Robbie's Latin classes most beneficial with my preparation. So it's 2 dances down and 6 more to go!!
My fitness campaign is going well, still aiming for my first Fun Run in October and l am enjoying my Personal Training Sessions, easing into the running which is improving each week and working hard on my core training. For a woman who has never trained before, l am finding it pretty tough and challenging but feeling exhilarated and very satisfied afterwards. Even enjoying the aches and pains that go with it (think there is something wrong with me). Adding to my fitness campaign are the Saturday classes with Ashley and Courtney which gets the heart pumping, and for some heavy duty workout then its Thursday night's dance marathon with Camilla's double zumba which is guaranteed to get those stomach muscles working with her sexy latin moves and if you really want to sweat, you must do the Jive or as Bri , Dan and l call it the "Killer Jive", we can barely move afterwards and neither can Robbie.. (word of warning though, do not eat beforehand, especially hamburgers, otherwise you maybe sharing a lot more than you bargained for).... And for some real food for the soul then its Trent's zumba with his different fun routines...,,.I am exhausted just reading this. But it really doesn't matter what classes you rock up to the instructors are all great and you are guaranteed a real fun work out!!!
