FRIDAY RAP-UP! 🥳💦🍎🌱
Well… that’s another week done and dusted — although after 7 Aqua Fit classes + 7 land-based classes, I’m not entirely sure there’s much dust left in me! 😂
This week has been a glorious mash-up of Tabata, strength, dance, freestyle aerobics, equipment, no equipment, water, land, questionable dance moves and a whole lot of sweat! 💪🏼💃🏼💦
And the best bit? A multitude of local communities, different ages, different abilities, different energy levels… all turning up with the same intention: to MOVE and HAVE FUN. ❤️
There were highs, there were “What on earth was I thinking putting that song on?” moments, and probably a few moments where my choreography and my brain were having completely separate conversations. 🤣
Because here’s the thing…
As an instructor, you don’t always get it right.
Some days the class flows perfectly.
Some days the timing goes sideways.
Sometimes the music behaves. Sometimes it absolutely does not. 😂
And sometimes you leave wondering whether everyone actually enjoyed themselves or was just smiling politely because they were too exhausted to escape!
But then you look around…
Those smiley, sweaty faces at the end of class. 🥰
That’s gold.
Because maybe the perfect workout isn’t the one where everything goes exactly to plan.
Maybe it’s the one where you laughed.
Maybe it’s the one where you surprised yourself.
Maybe it’s the one where you turned up when you really couldn’t be bothered.
Maybe it’s the one where you forgot about your to-do list for an hour and simply moved your body with other people.
And perhaps that’s worth remembering as we head into the weekend…
We don’t have to be perfect to make progress. We just have to keep showing up. ❤️
See ya next week! Have the best weekend!
