YAY.. I hope you enjoy it.. I wish I could find something that I would really enjoy.. I might just have to bite the bullet and do something anyway. I've apparently volunteered to be a youth lacrosse coach It would be nice to be able to keep up a bit better than I could right now

That is wonderful! I LOVE pilates!

Jodie, I have NEVER enjoyed working out and am about as non-athletic as they come (super clumsy!). I have found that I just absolutely can not get over how much I enjoy lap swimming. Have you tried that? I know it's hard to work in to a schedule because you have to actually go somewhere; I have get up at 6 to work out before my husband leaves at 7:15 for HIS workout, and then the kids get up around 8:30.

I love pilates...although I've only done it at home. I need to get back at it, because it did feel so good when I did it.

Had first class today and the class was not even full only 6 people . Kind of nice for starting off .
So far Jennifer it is great I have done some at home too via a book a friend had loaned me but I like this live lesson so I can get the instruction on how to turn my hip , shoulders , breathing etc.
   This is a class put on by the city for cheap so instruction is not quite as good if we were to be in a studio type class . The instructors in these classes tend to try and jam pack to much into each class and I did find that during this class .A bit to fast so I'm just practicing what I remember . Less then half what was taught I'm sure .
ds12 started karate too and loves it the teacher is amazing . I'm so pleasesd we are out of the house this yr . last yr. someone stole our car right in the dead of winter and for at least 5 months we were without . Now we're back on the road and loving it
I'm no where near ready for catching up with Leonie but I am thinking arobics next session
