Hi Everybody

I hope you had a happy and refreshing holiday and are excited to begin a New Year. January is the month where we traditionally review our lives and make resolutions to change things that we don’t like.

The resolution I made this year was to change my eating habits and go heavy on the fruits and vegetables. This change really suits me as I feel even more energetic than ever. And the best side benefit is that I lost some unwanted weight even without trying.  My second resolution is to take it easier, as I work too much.

Those are my resolutions for 2011.

I am really looking forward to this year as the teacher training manuals are written and I can move into some really exciting projects that I have been putting off. One is to do lectures on anti-aging and how we can stay young even as we chronologically age.

Classical Stretch 2010 TV series: The Health Series

In The Health Series I recount the success stories which viewers have sent to me telling have they overcome serious health problems simply by doing Classical Stretch. First I tell their stories and then during the workout I explain why specific exercises would be helpful to stimulate specific healing.

What made me decide to focus on health was because of all the fan letters I’d received over the years, telling me how Classical Stretch had changed their health so dramatically. Since I first started receiving emails years ago and designing the program a lot has changed in my understanding of what I had actually designed. I have consulted with doctors, kinesiologists and therapists and I now I have a better understanding of why and how these exercises help.

At first, I had trouble believing that Classical Stretch was a healing program. The emails came as a pleasant surprise however I’d not deliberately designed Classical Stretch as a healing program. I thought healing was the exclusive domain of doctors and medical professionals and wouldn’t have assumed to be able to do it through exercise.

Through the thousands of emails and many doctors’ encouragement I have come to appreciate the value of Classical Stretch as a healing workout. The personal stories opened my eyes to the enormous healing power of not only exercise but also the human body. We are truly magical beings who have the ability to reverse much (not all) of the many medical and health problems that we face.

FACEBOOK: Season 7 and the 30-DAY CHALLENGE!

We will be starting a 30-day challenge with our new series on February 1st! Hope you all join in so we can share our progress and experiences together. We will also have a discussion throughout on our Classical Stretch Face book page so be on the lookout!

Beginning on February 1st Miranda and the team will be doing one episode a day of the new 700 series. We will begin with the first episode and work our way through all of the episodes. Don’t worry though if you don't have Season 7 you can always join in with any other of our TV series.

We've done "boot camps" in the past and we know how healthy and vibrant everybody will feel after a month dedicated to Classical Stretch. While we’re at it we will also try to make February a "healthy-eating" month! That means more fruits and veggies and colorful foods to combat the grey winter. By the time we are done with our health month, Spring will be around the corner and we will all be looking and feeling great!

Looking forward to starting with you!

Our Fourth and final Teacher Training Finished

Over these past two and a half years I have spent every available minute writing our Teacher Training material. Preparing the teacher training manuals has been a group effort. As we’ve been working on the manuals we realized there was too much information for a teacher to absorb in one massive manual so we ended up writing 4 smaller manuals.

Although I wrote the material these manuals truly are a product of the whole Classical Stretch team. They have include thousands of photos, countless hours of editing and reediting, reading and rereading before going to the graphic design department and finally to be printed. Included in all the manuals are hours of supporting DVDs that required writing, production and editing. Now anyone that wants to has the perfect tools to become terrific Classical Stretch/Essentric instructors.

In addition to being available for anyone through Classical Stretch we can now offer a University certificate to instructors who want one. These manuals have been chosen to be part of a University Distance Learning Certification program delivered to over 50 major Universities worldwide.

Completing the manuals was a champagne moment for us at Classical Stretch as it was a long labour of love by virtually everyone in the company. We are confident that this training will definitely produce some amazing teachers so hopefully you will soon be able to take live classes at a Fitness center near you.

Teacher Training and Workshops

On the workshop front, I will be in Chicago April 2 and 5 giving a two day Level 1 workshop and two day Level 2 workshop. I love Chicago so I am looking forward to being there and enjoying some of the restaurants and museums while I am there.

We are also holding two weeks of intensive workshops for levels 1 to 4 from July 23 to August 6 to get instructors ready to start teaching for their September 2011 fall classes. Each level will consist of 3 consecutive days with one day off to relax and catch your breath before the next 3-day training begins.
