“A great reminder about setting goals, challenging yourself & keeping
your chin up.” - continued...
As many of you may already know from my earlier blog post I spent a weekend back in September to become certified as a Les Mills RPM spin instructor. As I got further into this I realized it was not just a long tough weekend it was much more than that. Les Mills programs are successful because of their process and their quality control. It's been a challenge to balance this with family and work. I had to file for an extension on my final video submission which was due November 16th and took a short break from learning release 56 so I could examine my purpose and goals. I had until December 21st to submit my video with my extension request or I would have to re-enroll in a new class and start from scratch.
I filmed yesterday and finally submitted my video and have now co-taught 4 classes and 4 classes on my own :-). I made several mistakes on the video, but hope it was good enough to move to the next level. It is becoming more natural and I love motivating people to push hard and experience the magic of an RPM class. Below are a few action shots of me teaching at the Gold's Gym in Forest Acres. I will keep you posted once I am on the regular schedule and not just a "substitute" so you can come experience it for yourself and help me fill the class. Come get in shape and reach your goals!
I would also like to mention what a great group of people I met during this process. All of them with similar goals and passion for fitness. I am very blessed to be a part of this group.
**A special thanks to David, Brenda, Dan, Margaret, Courtney and Todd for all of your support. I look forward to the ride :-).
May God Bless you
