Well Jed Crew were absolute stars* today because that seemed a super tough mash up this morning 😲* see what I did with the photo there 😆 A few wee nods to Pink in there since I'm super excited to be going to see her tomorrow 🙊😍 I may continue this mash up for the next week- you have been warned 😂 Did you enjoy? Did you feel worked? Good selection of music? I think we ticked all boxes ☑️ A lovely wee brekkie after because we missed Amy's birthday so wanted to make amends 😉 ahem! Thank you to those who were able to join us, lovely as always 😍 So, that's it til the 20th July in Jed 😱 Now THAT'S gonna hurt.....

Not quite found the right class yet? Think I have your solution! PiY⚙️- it's NOT yoga OK 🤦!! It IS high energy. It IS joint friendly ... It IS great for total body fitness. It IS great for the soul. It IS on tomorrow in Jedburgh's Kenmore Hall at 8am. Come along and try it out. It could just be the missing piece you've been looking for 🧡 **EDIT** Unfortunately Jill can't join us for class or brekkie but if we have enough to run the class we can still go. Bookings are low so please advise intentions. Sharings caring ;)

St Boswells Friday Crew were missing a few lovely regulars today 😲 But we had a couple of new faces come and give the class a wee bash, thanks to Ailsa & Sarah for coming along this morning, a little faster than your usual Friday morning I'm guessing, so well done ladies 😃 Today's theme was courtesy of Jill, who joined me in saying "Shut Up And Squat" and by heck you did 👊 I saw grimaces aplenty this morning and a wee personal best sneaked in on the balance work 😄 nice one Sheena! Next week, it's the last class before my annual leave to rest my muscles and recharge ready for the summer sessions. Are you joining me?

On Fridays we Stretch & Flow with this fabulous 45 min format of PiYo. I keep it less complicated and slightly less intense than the standard PiYo class so that more people can experience the benefits this total fitness package brings ❣️ Newbies are welcome any time, just drop me a message. Fridays class is in St Boswells Village Hall at 9.45am and there's also a Tuesday class in Newtown Community Centre at 10.00am with a few spaces available for anyone wishing to try it out 😃

Selkirk Well that was a hot and tough session no? That tummy work...shakes everywhere and as for the stars...well, something to practice huh? 😂 Thank you for joining me folks and Happy Birthday to Liz , how dedicated joining us for PiYo tonight 🎂🙌 Well done all. Are you in for next week?

Brand new release and with new moves, PiYo 64 is in Selkirk's O'Malleys tonight at 6.30pm. Be a star and come along ;)Brand new release and with new moves, PiYo 64 is in Selkirk's O'Malleys tonight at 6.30pm. Be a star and come along ;)

Selkirk PiYo Can I get numbers please for tomorrow's class since we missed last week? 6.30pm in O'Malleys Newbies very welcome 🤗Selkirk PiYo Can I get numbers please for tomorrow's class since we missed last week? 6.30pm in O'Malleys Newbies very welcome 🤗

Tuesday's Newtown Crew- things are definitely looking up. The positioning, alignment and self correction is all coming together nicely. You're listening fantastically to set up cues and pushing further (gently and controlled ;) ) into those positions! We even managed to sneak in a few wee extra exercises because we don't need those demos now we're familiar with the exercises 🙌 Very impressive folks. Time to add in some extra challenges perhaps? 🤔 Shall I see you next week? Not many booked 🤷 I'd LOVE for you to join me 🤗

Did you know, to bring you your new PiYo release, for me, involves:
1hr to download the class video, overview video, notes and music.
1hr (when iTunes plays nice 🙄) to unzip the music files, upload them to iTunes and then upload to iPod (yes, it really takes that long on my old iPod on a good day🤦)
... 1.5 hrs to watch the class video and overview video start to finish to see what's what.
1hr to then rewatch and take detailed notes that make sense to me! 🤣
A MINIMUM of 2hrs depending on time available to listen to the music start to finish (it has been known for iTunes to download half a tune in the past 🙄).
A MINIMUM of an hour to run through the choreo and check the music phrasing and counts.
And finally, another hour to rewrite my notes to a compact shorthand that nobody else on this planet would understand 🤣
7.5hrs MINIMUM to bring you one release 😲 I downloaded it this morning before class, and for straight back on it after lunch to bring this to you tonight. No wonder I'm pooped 😲 😂🤦
This is why I ask you PLEASE 🙏 to keep me posted on your intentions for class whenever possible! I know it doesn't seem like it, but us instructors work hard to bring you the classes you enjoy and all we ask is for a two minute text or message to keep me in the loop 😊

It's over to Newtown Community Centre Tuesday morning at 10am for the fantastic PiYo Stretch & Flow 😍 Have you tried it yet? If not, why not? 😲 You really are missing out on something quite powerful!
I have a few spaces available tomorrow morning if you'd like to come try it? A safe, encouraging atmosphere and a 45 min class of friendly ladies waiting to welcome you 🤗 We'd love for you to join our lovely wee fitfam. So, font make excuses....make time 💞

Well now Bozzy Crew, brand new week was started with a brand new release and I have to say I LOVE this one 💞 Some new challenges to brain and body, but even so, I felt that went extremely smooth and you all picked it up fabulously 👏👏 I know EXACTLY what you're all gonna be practicing at home....my new favourite move...now where's my gold paint 😆 What did YOU think?
Slightly depleted numbers. Hopefully back up next week although again, only 6 booked! Are you coming? PLEASE let me know asap folks.

Monday morning crew- how did we find this morning's "not Zumba" class? 🤔 Certainly not the giggles of last week but lots of smiley faces walking out again 😃 (albeit cowboy style 😆). I think those are deceiving little blighters those bands aren't they? 💪 My legs are thankful to get some rest time as I await my daughter's bus 😂

**"BREAKING" NEWS** PiYo 64 landed in my instructor portal yesterday. It's downloaded and ready to roll out TOMORROW 🎉 If you can't wait to check it out, join me in St Boswells Village Hall at 7pm Monday evening for this fantastic new release....don't be the one who misses out 😲 Remember I have a closed PiYo group for my regular PiYoneers only, you can search PiYo Scottish Borders and hit the request button 📲 In it you'll find some hints and tips on how to do certain moves correctly, how to modify or progress, and what you should be looking for 😊 #fomo #piyo64 #itsNOTyoga #missitmissout

Ok St Boswells Monday night crew, I NEED to know if you intend to join me tomorrow at 7pm in the village hall as currently sitting at FIVE bookings. I believe it may be Melrose Rideout possibly? PLEASE if you see this can you inform me of intentions. I will send out texts later to those who haven't seen this as I can't run the class with only 5! 😨

So Jed, a little return to PiYo 39 for our early morning workout. I do like this round, how about you? We almost had those lunge rows nailed....so close 🙈 Lovely to finish the workout with a birthday brekkie for Liz- Happy Birthday next week Liz 🎉 and next week is Jill's birthday, so we get to do it all over again 😃 Love getting to know you all a bit better 🤗 I finished off the lovely start to the day with a relaxing trip to the coast and some nature spotting (although the buzzard was last night's spy and son has his camera, all the rest were todays 😍) So who's joining me next week in Jed?

Jed I WILL run class tomorrow and see how it goes, please remember we have a post class brekkie for Liz's birthday and even if you can make class you're welcome to join us at Abbey Bridge Stoves cafe after class 😀 If you're a newbie and fancy trying PiYo, come along to the Kenmore Hall at 8am. High intensity but joint friendly total body workout 💪

St Boswells Friday Crew Wow, what a fab turnout today despite the festivities in Selkirk 😀 Was it just me or did that seem tougher today? Maybe I've just had a long week 🤷 Squats looking great, flow is looking elegant, core section DEFINETLY did exactly what it said on the tin AND.....I remembered those press ups 😂 How did we fair this morning team? A lovely comment from a lady as she walked out saying the class always makes her leave with a smile 😍 Now, THATS music to my ea...rs and testament to the fantastic group we have, who was joined by Carole-Anne- hope you enjoyed your "relaxing" class 😲 And lovely to see Susan again, hope you enjoyed this format 😊 Who's coming along next week?
