I hope you have had a lovely Easter Bank Holiday and getting back to work/school routine hasn’t been too stressful.
I was a guest at a Training Day in Central London on Saturday – even if I learn nothing new I am grateful for the opportunity to layer knowledge and recap, experience other fitness educators and mingle with fellow fit pros and this training did exactly that for me. Pinnacle Education is a lovely group headed by a fabulous lady, Teresa Wheatley who I recommend wholeheartedly.
After a bit of socialising I headed of to Pineapple to dance with Antonio – remember he is our Guest Teacher at Independance on 19th May (there are some spaces left so book now to take advantage of our Easter Bunny offer! Details below!) What a wonderful way to spend a Saturday.
The rest of the weekend was room and clutter clearing until we dropped, a proper Spring clean for our environment really helps makes us feel back in charge of our life journey and often goes hand in hand with cleaning up our ‘lifestyle act’ regarding food and exercise too.
