BEHIND....

I am so behind with my blogging and don't know if I should try and catch up or just go on from here...

So what's the latest in my life?

I have Boondock's to blog about, Mother's Day...and my latest Zumba adventure. What's the easiest to blog about right now? Probably my Zumba adventure. Why? Because I don't really have pictures (my sis Silia has some....but I don't) to upload...so writing is the easiest to do right now.

Tonight I was invited by a friend to come out and teach a Zumba class. She asked me like a month ago. Being the procrastinator that I am...I wait and wait...and then try and throw something together the week before..or in this case, the night before.

Those that Zumba with me and my sisters know that it's no holds bar. I mean, we go all out. And we really emphasize a lot of the moves. Yes, even though we are 'bigger chicks', we're not afraid to move. But in todays case, it was at a church and it was for a group of YW. That made it hard. Had to really think of the music and the moves. It was a toned down, low key church version Zumba...if there's even such a thing.

I learned a couple things tonight...

The volume of the music plays a big part. If you can barely hear the music, it makes it a little difficult.

I am a great follower. I need more practice leading.

I need to find something to help with the nervousness.

If I'm going to teach facing the group, I need to remember to start on the left always.

Don't hold back. Just go all out. Hahahahahaha! Even if it's at the church.

I have the greatest supporters - my sisters Silia and Kalo!!!! Love you guys!!!

I'm not going to give up yet.

Oh and last night, went in and used the rec. scale to find out my body fat percentage. Results - 38% Where does that fit in on the chart? EXCESS FAT is where it fits in. Yup, for my age and height, I should be in the 20-27%. I know this isn't too accurate, but I have an idea where I should be. I am determined to get that body fat percentage down.

Well, that's it for now. I will try and catch up over the weekend...yeah, I know, how many times have I said that huh? Until next time...CIAO~

Thats awesome sis! Maybe to help bring the nerves down you can keep practicing at church activities... maybe even do freestyle workouts and just invite people to come so you can instruct. I know a whole bunch of people would show ;) Keep up the hard work cause its really paying off! Luv yeah SeL
