This week in class, our wonderful Angela reminded us of the full moon tonight


The energy of this full moon is to let go of what wasn't serving you in 2024, and to bring in the energy you want for in 2025. I wanted to dive deeper, and this cool little link let's you look at what the last Full Cold Moon (and it is cold) means for your Zodiac sign :-)


For me - Aries - the energy is speak up and speak out. Which I really love.


As we come into the final weeks of 2024, I want to speak up with my immense gratitude for this community. Creating fitness programming, and having a community where you feel inspired to be a little healthier, is a gift to me. I wrote a blog on how to achieve your goals - that will be published this week - and one tip is really simple: Strive for 1% better each day.


Over the next 10 days you are going to be insanely busy.


Here is six ways you can achieve your 1%


  1. Have a PLAN A, B and C of exercise this week - that's personal. But just because you can't do a full class live, doesn't mean you can't dip into the portal for a 20 minute workout or an exercise snack
  2. Maintain a healthy eating routine and allow yourself the 1% moments - it isn't a big deal if you have a Lindt chocolate ball in the office. But the moment you decide that it is Gate's Open, and let's just start again in January, you let go off all the progress you make to stay healthy.
  3. Use the dark nights this week to cozy into bed early. Introduce a winter's sleep routine - do some yoga on your bed (child's pose and happy baby are too great ones before sleep). Get a silk sleep mask.
  4. Breathe. Pause in the day for deep breathwork for a minute. You will regulate your vagus nerve
  5. Hydrate - especially on party days
  6. Practice Gratitute

The #1 Tip I can give anyone for fitness goals pertains to consistency.


The only way we move forward is to be consistent. This mean if you are injured, stay consistent with walking / mobility / yoga / swimming; if you coming back from fitness, be consistent with smaller doses of exercise and weights and build up your strength


But consistently putting in effort achieves lasting results


Have you thought about giving the GIFT of FITNES
