On Fri morning I had a treat! A 90 min exercise session led by Ari, who is the director of the centre. In his past life (ie - up until a year ago) he had his own personal training business. My co-worker told me that Ari would never say this to us (as he's too modest) but he was trainer to Jennifer Lopez and other A-List celebs. So, what a privilege to have him teach us !! I believe various mags also voted him as trainer of the year etc. It was, of course, a five star class!
Yesterday, I went to Jacob's Pillow, which is a dance centre - they had a community day with all sorts of great free performances - my fave was going into the dance school and observing the class doing their morning warm up. It was like a scene from The Kids From Fame. It sure made me want to move my body!!
Since waking up at 6.30am, I've been thinking exercise, exercise, exercise - so I'm about to head off on a long walk!! I joined the old ladies for 15 mins doing chair exercises, but that didn't do it for me!!
Last week, a somatic educator came in and gave a class which was also fascinating. Her tip for aging gracefully and healthily was "keep moving!"
So, movement and exercising is a definite theme right now!! I need something to balance 34 sedentary hours coming up this week of sitting in a golf cart!
Once we switch back into retreat ctr mode, next week, there will be two yoga classes per day. I hope I like the teacher!!! We also have a visiting teacher coming this week (Jodi) who is a dancer and yoga teacher and I'm totally looking forward to her class tmw!!
