DSCN0043

Dear Joey’s Teacher, Joey cannot come to school today because his belly hurts, and his foot fell asleep. He’s concerned about having to hop around school and having his foot woken up by the loud lunch room. I suggested he eat lunch at his desk quietly but he feels certain someone will still wake it [...]

Life is a workout.

  Ever realize how exercise mocks life? Think about it, the ups and downs of life mimics interval training…ever do a burpee? Or 100 burpees? It’s all about getting up and getting down. (Just like our feelings, we can be up or down). Even for a Spin class, the constant rhythm of pedaling is the [...]

Breaking down and Building up

DSCN0042

…With his raspy voice, ability to laugh constantly and relentless attempts to skip school, he is the ultimate Super Hero. Wishing his farts could blast him up, up and away, so he could fly with Superman, and then fart and fly around with him all day, is only one example of the wheels in his [...]

Prescription for a perfect day

After making yesterday EPICKKK, Joey had no intention on bringing anything positive today. During our daily breakfast/coffee conversation he informed me today would just be regular because he’s too tired and not because he got out of bed 17 times last night, or that he snuck into bed with me at 3:00 in the morning, [...]

All we can do is be our best. Being better than yesterday makes us stronger for all of our tomorrows. Yesterday may have had disappointments, or achievements in which we were able to learn from and will help us grow. Even as I write these blogs, there are days when I can feel my own [...]

Testimonials

I have known Dina for over 25 years; her creativity and inspiration is in everything she does. She inspires my dance students to acheive new goals and strength with their bodies. When I turned 50 I fell into that trap of feeling old, weak and unable to turn around my mood. She challenged me to take her then brand new boot camp. Fear was certainly the word to describe my first thoughts but with her encouragement I did it and each week became stronger, not just physically but emotionally. It was truly a turning point for the second half of my life!
