Last night wasFantaSTICK… 😂
Weather was a little bit rainy to begin with but it actually improved as the session went on. After our usual warmup we played a few games and then tried our hand at some new games using our lovely new sticks. It took a minute to get going mostly because we were laughing so much but it all worked well and we’re definitely going develop it to do that one again!

My Motivation has been all over the place lately dealing with a pretty awful spell of Cluster Migraines and Low Iron so my energy levels have been at an all time low and my body has been in fight mode almost every day dealing with all the migraine symptoms.

Things are getting much better now though and last night yet again was a HUGE reminder of just how important it is to do the things that bring you joy. This wee group and hanging out with these ladies (we’re missing a few). Claire Barranger-Clark Louise Forbes Samantha Wildi honestly brings me so much joy & don’t forget Finch our gorgeous little Motivate Me Mascot 🐶 she always makes us smile 🩷

It’s not just about the benefits of the physical exercise and movement, it’s also the massive positive impact the social aspect has on our emotional and mental health 🩷 it’s medicine for the soul.

It was a very musical session tonight for us starting with the Sally Challenge and then onto my favourite, Heads Shoulders Knees and Toes! 😂
We took turns rolling the Dice for a bit of a mix and we ended with a game of quick reactions! All in a pretty good session that went by ridiculously fast!

No session next week as I’m away with work but we’re back the week after so the 11th and the 18th are up now under the Events Tab.

Hopefully see some of you there 🩷

Bit of a late post!
This week has been a busy little week and I’ve sadly still been battling the good old migraines 😵‍💫but better late than never… 😅

This week I had the pleasure of running a Zombie Apocalypse Training session for the Kingswells Brownies unit and we had a fantastic time! 🤩
I did a session last year for the Kingswells Guides so I was delighted to be invited back to run this for the Brownies too. 🩷

Everyone displayed amazing communication skills, excellent listening, agility, enthusiasm and resilience not to mention the lovely displays of kindness and friendship amongst the group.
I am very proud of every single one of these Youngsters & the adults too who were great sports and took part in all of it with huge enthusiasm 😂🩷
It really means a lot to me to be able to deliver the session to such brilliant and welcoming Groups.

As always for community groups I give the option of a Kindness Exchange. I run the session for free and in exchange the group bring me tins/cartons etc of food which i then donate to Aberdeen Cyrenians . 👏🩷
Kingswells Brownies you went above and beyond with your donations🥰 Thank you so much for your kindness, it’s going to a great cause, you should all be very proud of yourselves. 💗

Thank you so much for having me along I had a fantastic night🥰🧟‍♀️

As always if you would like to book a session for your Girl Guides Unit, your Brownies, Scouts group or for a private Birthday Party or Corporate event etc etc then please just get in touch.

Are you prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse?! 🧟‍♀️

The cones were flying away,the grass was pretty squishy, the sun was out, the sky was dark, we got rained on and we were treated to a lovely little rainbow.. we ran, we skipped, we crawled, we lunged, we laughed! Phew all that in one hour! 🥰😅

Hi Folks, hope you’re all doing fine today 🩷
I’ve cancelled tonight unfortunately.
I’m having some Migraine issues this week - it’s on/off/on off and driving me nuts 😵‍💫 and I’ve popped a blood vessel in my eye not sure if it’s related or coincidence but I’ve been trying to avoid anything overly strenuous or aggressive. No running and no jumping around etc 🐸 🙈 sad times😂
I’ve put up next weeks session for the 14th and it can be a sort of Relaunch for the spring summer after a stop start couple of weeks 😅🥰💪 So if you would like to join us please go pop your name down!
Hopefully see you all soon xx

There is So much I want to say about last nights Zombie Apocalypse Training Session!

I had the absolute privilege to be invited back to the 1st Parkway Guides in the BOD to deliver my Session for a 2nd time! My first visit was on 26th June 2024 and it was the first time I had delivered a session to anyone outside of my Motivate Me group. Christine Paterson is part of my little MM family and had taken part before when I was trialing the session and toying around with the idea and it was Christine who invited me along to deliver the session to the guides and since then it’s been non stop bookings. Thank you Christine, I am very grateful for you🩷…and unbelievably happy that groups seem to be enjoying it so much I get invited back! 😂🧟🩷

The group last night also just happened to be the biggest group I have had yet! Almost 40 young people out on the field in the glorious evening sunshine, running, rolling, jumping, laughing, learning new skills and all having lots of fun together.
I am so proud of each Young Person for getting involved and embracing every challenge thrown at them. It’s an incredibly active session from start to finish so it takes real determination and strength not to mention the Teamwork, communication skills, listening skills, resilience and lots of physical activity.
As always the Guides are offered a Kindness Exchange and with that each young person brought x3 tins of food which will be donated to Aberdeen Cyrenians tomorrow. That’s 120 items!!
Thank you so much 1st Parkway Guides you are AMAZING!!! 🩷🧟

This week we focused on High Intensity Training! I named it Magic 10. 🤩

Up and Down Buckie Brae as many times as you can manage in 10mins!
5min recovery walk to next location.
Pushups- As many as you can muster in 10mins.
5min recovery in a static seated Squat
Big Hill(as I like to call it) was going to be another 10min repeats but we went with 5mins as time had passed so quickly
We also covered a distance of 5.66k which is incredible 💪

Here’s a good explanation taken from google because it explains it better than I can!…
**Short bursts of intense, sustained exercise—often referred to as High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) involve brief, all-out efforts- followed by short recovery periods. This approach is highly effective for improving cardiovascular health, increasing metabolic rate, and building strength in less time than traditional, steady-state exercise**

Well Done Ladies you pushed yourselves again tonight and you should be feeling very proud of yourselves for getting out there in such cold windy conditions! that was another full on session 💪 🏃🏻‍♀️

I really enjoyed that tonight!

Hopefully see some of you next week!
