The first week of January has been a busy week at Core, new classes started and we've been able to meet a lot of new people in the community.

The RealRyder schedule got underway and as we knew it would be, people are loving the experience. We have an amazing group of instructors who all bring a little something different to each of their classes.

I thought it would be nice to share with all of you how one of my clients spends her time. Tara has just created a blog called the Serendipitous Puck Mummy. Here's a little bit about how she got in to it:

"10 years ago, I had barely set foot in a hockey rink.  Truth be told, I did not really like hockey.

We are now in our new fitness studio at 50 Queen Street in downtown Dartmouth,  drop by and and check out our space and chat about your fitness needs.

I've uploaded our new class and workshop schedule - just updated today.

Things are starting to arrive for the new space. The WaterRowers came in yesterday, the foam rollers are here, the swipe cards and scanner for the punchcards are here.

We are building the RealRyder schedule with our top notch teach of instructors- the best HRM has to offer.

It's all very exciting watching everything come together!

The Ripple Effect- I chose drops of water for this blog because of the growth, change & potential it represents to me. 

Over the last few weeks, I have been chatting with a good friend and fellow fitness instructor. She was telling me she wanted to start a bootcamp for plus size women like herself.

Her goal with the group was to create an environment where women could feel safe and empowered and of course a awesome workout.

Tina is an amazing instructor and gives a wicked workout- she teaches all aerobic classes and spin.

Thanks to all the riders that came out this morning to my 60 minute ride. We had an awesome ride!

Had some new riders out, they did a great job. Thank you to all the regulars who came instead of golfing or sleeping in.

August is going to be  a great month. We have our camps running throughout the month and are preparing for our new ones in September.

LULULEMON: So excited that we will be teaching a free Kettlebell at Lululemon on Monday night, Aug 10th at 7:30 p.m.! and also once more later this month. What great way to show people how amazing kettlebells are. The Lululemon store is located here; http://kl.am/244c

Clients are reaching new heights at Core Essentials Fitness. This afternoon, I am proud to say that a client and I spent some time at Ground Zero Climbing Centre. My client proved to herself that she could overcome her fears and some physical limitations that she thought she had.

Our training over the last few months has helped her grow in core strength, energy and the climb today really showed the new heights to which she has risen.

Great work!

I am always happy to see when clients embrace fitness as a lifestyle. One of the boot campers showed up on her bike last night, pretty much an uphill ride to camp.

She dusted after the bike after 12 years.

Super job!
