Setting goals can be a challenge for anyone who is trying to make some changes. Whether it be the appropriate size or weight or a new job or even where you live, these life changing decisions can be intimidating and a plan is helpful.

I struggle with this as well as I try to sort out the appropriate steps to get where I would like to be; I can be distracted by disappointment or fear. Does this happen to you as well? I have learned over time this fear is normal. Learning to appreciate a F.A.I.L (First Attempt In Learning) and understand the reason you are where you are is so much a part of seeing an even bigger piece of your plan.

Even in the most trying moments there is a beautiful discovery of self and with this new awareness a better path can propel you forward. Goals have the power to help you really discover what you're made of and where you need to be.

The valuable lessons often gets missed because we are searching for big dramatic ah-ha moments, when sometimes what you need can be so simple it whizzes by unnoticed.

When it comes to fitness goals and lifestyle changes I often ask clients to scale back what they believe the bar should be. Not because I don’t believe in their ability to achieve but because I see the importance of setting an achievable goal in order to be successful.

To not look at the journey in its totality but to look at each pit stop as a moment of reflection. A time to gather what you need to carry on. When you are on a long road trip you break it up into sections, stopping a little on the way so you don’t get exhausted by the journey. To me, this also applies to how someone goes about achieving a goal. The pit stops are a valuable pause. It helps you keep track of where you need to be and gives you a clear head and new perspective on how to get to your destination. After the summer stall, a holiday or a life change it is normal to reset, reevaluate and restart. This is how you will actually be successful in getting to the end of your journey.

Over the Summer I had opportunities to teach and reconnect with my first love—DANCE!

I travelled around Canada adjudicating dance competitions and teaching conditioning & dance to different studios around Ontario. I am awed by the commitment of teachers and children to try something better for their bodies. So proud to be able to work with such talented young dancers. It is my pleasure to teach them something I love so much!

Through Healthy Dancer Canada, I also had the opportunity to work with Ballet Jorgen helping to pre-screen dancers for injury.

I also attended the Dance Teachers' Expo, and the CanFitPro conference again; it was a very busy summer!
