It's that time of year again when I clean out my old emails and contact list. It's also that time of year when I realize (again) that saying "yes" to delete something is permanent. So if I accidentally deleted your contact info and you stop receiving newsletters and class information (and you still want to receive this info), just email [email protected], and I will put you back on the list.

I attended my first physio session yesterday, good news was that I have not lost any range of motion in either knee; so holding steady. Got treated with dry needling (back, thigh, calf) as well as laser to the knee. Stiff and sore today as anticipated after the dry needling. She did the dry needling because of the pain in my ankle caused by my walking mechanics being altered by the pain in my knee. The dry needling allowed her figure out if their was a "new" muscular component to my pain, and there was in my thigh and calf. The good news/bad news (don't tell my husband) is that my physiotherapist recommended different shoes for me for teaching.

We've got one spot that opened up this morning and 2 next Thursday (June 25). The 25th will be our last chance to dance until September. Email [email protected] if you want a spot.

We all know the fitness industry is not federally regulated, and this has led to unqualified "instructors" leading classes. If someone is promoting and leading group/dance fitness classes they should have group fitness certification, possibly a license (if a branded program), liability insurance, and CPR certification. These are requirements of all certifying fitness organizations in Canada. Even physical education teachers need group certification to lead classes in a commercial or community setting. Please ask your instructor what their credentials are, if they have insurance and if they are CPR certified.
