✨ MONDAY MEMBER SPOTLIGHT ✨
Then ➡️ Now
This is Peggy Sue, our gorgeous Pegs 💕
And today feels like the perfect day to celebrate her because it's also Pegs' birthday! 🎂💖
So today we're celebrating more than just her Pole Position journey, we're celebrating the wonderful human that she is.
Peggy joined Pole Position back in January 2018, and over almost nine years she has become an absolute treasure within our community.
There aren't many corners of Pole Position that Pegs hasn't explored!
Pole, hoop, BungeeFit, GI Fit, GI Power, stretch, splits, boxing, pad work, outdoor training on the common... she's pretty much said yes to it all 😂
When COVID changed everything, Pegs changed with it. She trained with us from home, joined PTs when she could, even joined us from abroad, and when we were finally allowed to exercise together outside, there she was getting stuck into our outdoor sessions.
But when you look back through nearly nine years of photographs, there's something that appears in almost every single one.
That smile. 💕
And that sums Pegs up beautifully.
She works hard and challenges herself, but she hasn't forgotten that we're supposed to enjoy this stuff too. Not every session has to be perfect. Not every move has to happen immediately. Some days you nail it, some days you don't, but you can still laugh, enjoy your training and appreciate what your body CAN do.
Pegs brings that attitude into every class.
She's kind, caring and supportive, and she's one of those people everybody is happy to partner with. She embraces different instructors, different classes and different challenges with the same brilliant attitude.
And then... there's photoshoot Peggy. 🔥
Because apparently our smiley, elegant Pegs has another setting entirely 😂
Give that woman a pole and a camera and out comes the sass. She absolutely NAILS photoshoots and somehow manages to make everything completely her own. Sexy, elegant, confident, with that unmistakable Peggy vibe.
She looks after herself, makes space for herself and, even when aerial throws challenges her way, she keeps coming back and giving it another go.
🥷 What GIJO says:
“Bird, as I like to call her, is an absolute treasure.
What I've loved most about teaching Pegs over the years is that she has never lost the reason she started doing this in the first place. She genuinely enjoys it.
She'll work hard, she'll challenge herself and she'll keep trying, but she'll laugh along the way. And I think there's a lesson in that for all of us.
Nearly nine years of coaching someone means you share an awful lot more than individual pole moves. We've been through studios floods, COVID, outdoor training, endless classes, photoshoots and plenty of Funky Fridays, and somewhere amongst all of that I've been very lucky to get to know the wonderful woman behind the member too.
And I do particularly love naughty Peggy when she makes an appearance 😂🔥
Bird, I think the absolute world of you. Never lose that smile, never lose that naughty side and please never stop bringing your wonderful Peggy energy through our doors.”
So today, share your favourite photos and videos of our gorgeous Pegs below, celebrate the woman, the legend, the queen, and help us wish her a VERY happy birthday 🎂🥂💖
We see you. We celebrate you. We're so proud of you.
