BarreConcept

June has been a busy and exciting month.  Continuing to enjoy teaching my fabulous clients who are always open to trying new things, and are loving the results of all the hard work they put in.

One client in particular has lost 7lbs in just over a month and several inches, very exciting for me, I share her excitement, this also reaffirms why I do what I do and am always looking for new ways to help them.

At the beginning of June I ventured off to Ottawa to participate in a Barreconcept Certification Course which was held over 4 days (32 Hours), one of the most in depth courses available, and one I highly recommended.  Emma Newham (Pilates Union) is an amazing teacher, full of insight,inspiration, knowledge,boundless energy and enthusiasm.  This was the first certification course held in Canada, it was so popular word has got around and there will be another one in October.

The group of ladies attending were totally amazing.  We all worked extremely hard.  On the first day Emma put us through a very, very, thorough Barre workout which had us all dripping, thighs shaking and most certainly aware of our butts, which actually seemed higher.  

The course was informative, we were encouraged to think "outside the box" which added another range of different exercises to the ones that were already in the manual.

I am in the process of putting together and taping my practical video after which I am hoping to become a Certified Barreconcept Instructor.   Looking forward to teaching this, so much fun and you can certainly feel everything working.

Participating in a Full Certification and accredited course was a great decision for me, I did look at other courses out there and Emma's was the most in depth course.  I realize there are other courses out there that are much shorter in duration, but to be honest I don't see how anyone could possibly learn the whole repertoire in a one or two day course.   Excellent move on my part and looking forward to being part of the Barreconcept family.
