Barefoot & on the Mat: December 2022 Happy Holidays!

Wow December is upon us!

“December: a month of lights, snow and feasts; time to make amends and tie loose ends; finish off what you started and hope your wishes come true.”

We are a friendly group who perform a wide variety of activities and we love to slip off our shoes and work out in bare feet. We enjoy Barre, Pilates, Yoga, Fusion, Qi Gong, Classical Stretch/Essentrics, Ellen Barrett, Kettlebells, or even traditional workouts performed barefoot. You are welcome to join us, and even if you wear shoes for your workouts, come on in -- we won't tell!

Mari Winsor Lower Body Pilates (Trim and Tone Thigh workout)

I really like Mari's pilates workout that I did this morning. It is an easy to moderate level workout and fun to do.

Pam, thank you kindly for starting our new month! It's hard to believe that this year is almost over.

Beth, I hope you stay well!

I'm waving to everyone!

Todays workouts:
~My buddy’s Essentrics class
~15 min walking and gentle bouncing on the rebounder
~Ellen’s Core Cardio - a nice little workout, but IMO a bit too slow to be cardio
~Foot/calf work
~Lower body focused stretch & yin

Gemini - That sounds like a tough workout! I haven’t been motivated to put up holiday decorations yet. I don’t think we will put up our tree as we will be away at the local ski hill with the whole family the weekend before Christmas and in the city at our son’s for 5 days over Christmas. So I’m in the holiday spirit but not the decorating spirit, lol.

Waves to all!

Pam, you and your DH will have a fun Christmas with your family.
I like your avatar.

Gemini, we don't have our Christmas tree/Holiday decorations up yet. Do you?

Good morning everyone! I had to cover for the dingbat, then we had the office party, so I had no formal exercise but managed 5,000 steps.

Pam, thanks for starting our last check-in of 2022! Your upcoming travel plans sound wonderful.

Gemini, we scaled back drastically on decorating. DH will bring up some treasures from the basement and make the LR festive, though.

Paine, that's a very good Winsor video.

TGIF to Beth, Sandra, Cyana and anyone who visits!

TGIF to all! It's been a short week for me, but still looking forward to the weekend.

Our Christmas tree is "up" - DH put it up over the Thanksgiving break. I will decorate tomorrow though. We do have our holiday wreath on the front door.

Hi!

Yogapam: Thank you for starting us off this month!

Thursday's "Workout": My weekly functional fitness workout at the food closet. As usual we were busy, plus it was raining! Luckily I was wearing my new rain hat, which kept the rain off my face (and my glasses).

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It was quite the envy of my fellow volunteers.

Today's Workout: My yoga flow class at my gym. The gym's lead instructor also took the class, and afterwards he invited questions and comments about the class offerings. So I lobbied for a pilates class and more daytime non-heated yoga classes. I also told him to please not cancel the Gold class -- and he replied that in fact he plans to add *more* Gold classes to the schedule!

Gemini: Re Christmas decorations, I put up a little shelf which has small scale ornaments and other mementos. Owing to living with two ill-behaved cats I don't even try to have a tree!

Waving to all!
