Well, the most amazing thing has happened!  I began Callanetics wanting to improve strength and flexibility.  Both are much improved and continue to progress as Rhonda is always introducing something new and challenging.  I also wanted a program for the long term:  one which will respectfully accommodate changing levels of fitness, age, wellness.  Now, much to my surprise, my changing level of fitness (increased core strength) has totally changed the way I walk.  My stride is longer, more fluid, my posture straighter, and breathing more even.  Our Jack Russell loves it as more blocks continue to be added – without even trying, we are covering more distance in lesser amounts of time.  (I know he thinks I will keep adding 10 block increments but, really, we cannot be out walking all day!)  I am fortunate to be in a small class which, while allowing each to focus on her own exercise, fosters a shared sense of determination and humour. Thanks to all & to Rhonda.
