Well we went out with a bang! 2 fabulous Saturday classes with so many beautiful familiar faces and lots of smiles and laughs and tears.
Yesterday morning was so very tough. Walking in to the big shed that has been so familiar, and comfortable for so many years to teach and train together for the last time started with tears and finished with lots of tears but with my heart full. I am so grateful and was so overwhelmed with love and support and generosity. I have been super lucky to have had a job where I have simply encouraged a love of fitness in others and offered a way to exercise with group fitness classes in all of the styles that I have loved and that have kept my motivation over the years. What evolved is a credit to all of you.
We have had a place in our lives to escape from home and work that has formed such great friendships. I have watched on and seen the very best in all of you. Seen strength and commitment, sometimes building each other up and sometimes holding each other up. You are all amazing, the fitness has been next level, but the people I have met and have had in my life because of Vibe has been a gift.
I will be forever grateful, I treasure the memories and all of the fun we have had (sometimes that was running up hills with tyres lol) and I thank each and everyone of you that has supported Vibe Fitness from the very beginning until yesterday. I will be totally lost over the next few weeks I’m sure, but hope everyone finds a new way of maintaining their fitness journey wherever that takes you. I will teach again in some form and will be needing training buddies so am sure it’s not goodbye but it’s a very sad farewell to the shed and Vibe as we know it.
Thank you to the very special people who organised our farewell yesterday (I know & appreciate how much effort went into it when you are all super busy) thank you to all of those who contributed to my way too generous gift (both current and past members), thank you to both Danielle and Flic for all of your help over the years as awesome instructors and thankyou to the talented Laura Jelbart for capturing the very last class in such a special way. So many pictures that I will treasure 😘.
Big love to everyone and for the last time have a healthy & happy week.
😘❤️
