“Make exercise a reward, rather than a punishment. Think about how you feel at the end of a run, a great hip hop workout, a tennis match or a spin class and use that to motivate yourself.”

Shawties (translation = hot ladies),
I am overwhelmed at the amazing spirit and determination of all of you. Your enthusiasm for getting fit and staying fit (for a lot of you) is remarkable.
I think we need to change our way of thinking just a bit and look at exercise as something we GET to do, rather than HAVE to do. How lucky are we that we can play tennis at a beautiful tennis court, walk down the street and take a Hip Hop class in our neighborhood (for some of you), ride our bikes to a beautiful pool and do water aerobics. In case you haven't noticed...we are all pretty lucky.
Exercise is a reward and that awesome feeling after a great workout is only one small benefit........ relives stress, fights disease, reverses the signs of aging, bla, bla....so why don't we do it??

At 7:00 tonight, put your tennis shoes on, cute booty shakin' outfit and walk out the door, it really is that simple.

See you all tonight!!

Also, please encourage your man/ guy friends to join the fun tonight...let's see if they can keep up!!

PS
Have great summer Hip Hop CDs and Tshirts!

Peace, Love & Hip Hop,
Angel
