Les Mills 4th Quarter 2007 Super Workshop @ KLCC

Ah yes ... the Quarterlies. An event most if not all instructors of the Les Mills program will be looking forward to. It's a time where instructors for programs ranging from Body Attack, Body Combat, Body Step, Body Pump, Body Jam and Body Balance will gather to witness the new release of those said programs ... new choreo, new music, new techniques, new innovations, new energy, new excitement ... this is what that had kept Les Mills so successful in today's world of fitness industry.

I needed to collect my shoes which was left in Rennaissance hotel after class the other day, so since I was to give Julian a lift to the Quarterly, we decided to meet up in TF, Taipan at 7am. Guess what happened, I only woke up at 7:30am!!! I immediately called Juls and rushed around like a maniac trying to get everyting ready in less than 10 minutes. Anyways, not only was Juls not pissed off, she even bought me a breakkie set form McDs. :) How sweet of her no?

We made our way to collect my shoes and then straight on to KLCC where the Quarterly was to take place. We weren't late, infact we even had approx. 15 minutes to spare before the first launch began. Gradually, more and more people streamed in and it's good to know this time around, there are more famililiar faces compared to the last.

I personally participated in the Body Attack, Body Combat and Body Pump and it was all good. The presenters were nothing short of AWESOME and that made all the difference. There, we were able to see and learn how a class ought to be conducted and also given notes and tips on what's hot and what's not in the new developments concerning our programs.

Events like these are also the best way for fellow instructors to meet and catch up. Actually, some of the instructors come for the workshop for this sole purpose alone ... hehe ... not gonna mention names here.

A bunch of us went for brunch after Body Combat. We ended up at the food court and it's amazing how some of em' can wallop full meals an hour before going for the next program launch ... in this case, Body Pump. After BP, we lingered for a bit to see the Jammers strut their stuff before showering and headed to Chilly's for a late lunch. Yes, Les Mills instructors eat like crazy but they work out a whole lot more to make up for their sinful binging habits. :)

After the over the top lunch, a few of us namely Alex, Su Yee, Jack, Juls and myself walked around for a bit of window shopping before heading home for a well deserved rest after such a long and tiring day. And in all, I had tonnes of fun and meeting new faces is always a plus point. So I guess now it's back to work where everyone will have to start learning their new choreos in time for the various launches in their own gyms respectively. Can't wait ... hehe.
