Today, 3 learners did not arrive for the Level 3 Pilates assessments on time. Had to beg people on the gym floor to participate!

Started late...

At lunchtime, we were told there was a yoga class in the studio we had booked for the whole day and has to ship out 1 assessment into the spin room.'

The yoga teacher then ran over....meaning I was running late again. I felt 'NOT VERY ZEN' TOWARDS HER.

Then....THEN, some bloke just wandered in to my exam room to 'grab a mat' even though I had expressly told him to get out because there was an exam underway and he literally just ignored me and carried on.

I lost my everlasting S**T with him. But srsly, wtf?!

My heart rate is through the roof today.

Let's play 'Sports Massage Therapist Training Bingo'

Here is your card:

☐ Someone says "It's definitely the piriformis."

☐ Someone forgets to reassess after treatment.

☐ Someone gives homecare that's basically "drink water."

☐ Someone finds a "lump" that's just semitendinosus doing semitendinosus things.

☐ Someone performs a special test beautifully... on the wrong leg.
