Today was my very first day taking Cardio Barre.  It’s been a little tough for me to even get BACK into a class….I mean, I’ve been such a lazy girl full of excuses.  So I thought a cardio barre class would be a great introduction back into my body.  I had NEVER taken class of the sort and for some reason this morning, I had the sudden urge to surprise myself and take a class that I’ve never taken before.

(sidenote:  I will always remember my friend Katy telling me that she would like to “surprise” herself more often.  I love that and I have gladly taken that on.)

So at 9:45am today I looked up the schedule to see there was a beginners 10:30 class.  I changed and bolted out the door just in time to make it.

I had no idea what to expect and even the act of doing something totally unknown to me was so liberating.  The simple act of just showing up was a rewarding feeling!

That class….KILLED ME!  I nearly fainted, threw up or cursed out the instructor.

And I absolutely LOVED every minute of it.

So step 2 of my pathway back to dance has begun:  Getting my strength back.  

The hardest part of accomplishing anything is starting.  So what are YOUR goals?  What do YOU want to accomplish…and how will you begin.

SURPRISE YOURSELF!!!
