✨ Good evening ! ✨

Here’s this week’s timetable, with just a couple of tiny changes — and two fab events to look forward to! 🙌🥾

📍 No Billingham Steppers this week as I’m at an event with work.

🥾 This week’s Tuesday night hike— all the details can be found on the Events tab on this page and in the Silent Event Group, so have a little look and come join us free for a 3.5 miler

😂 SATURDAY EVENT
We’ve also got a brilliant event this Saturday at Hartlepool Town Hall. I got numbers, so if you’re coming, please could you send your money over by lunchtime tomorrow. Thank you! ❤️

Have a wonderful week, everyone! Keep showing up, keep moving and keep smiling 💪🥾

Whether you come along for the miles, the laughs, the company, or simply to get yourself out of the house, you’re always welcome.

We’ve got another lovely week ahead of us, so let’s make it a good one 🥰🙌🏼

Life has changed a lot for me this year.

I’m expanding and about to open another new business. I’m grown my wellness brand and adding events to this fantastic community we’re building. My daughters are growing up, finding their own paths and preparing for their futures. There’s been so much growth, so much change and plenty that I’m incredibly proud of.

But alongside all of that, there’s also been sadness.

The last few months have brought a reality I’m adapting to, and I’m not afraid to admit that some days it’s been incredibly difficult.

I know myself well enough to recognise how I deal with difficult emotions. I tend to lock myself away, put my head down and pour all of that energy into growth and my passion.

Maybe there’s a part of me that needs to prove my worth — not to other people. I learnt a long time ago that people don’t get that privilege. You’re never going to be for everyone, and I’m okay with that.

I think it’s more about proving it to myself, and making my girls proud. I like those moments where I can quietly look at something I’ve created, achieved or overcome and think, yep, I did that.🥰

And perhaps those moments have meant even more recently when you don’t have that special person beside you to share things with.

But I’m also learning that growth doesn’t always have to mean doing more too.

Sometimes growth is slowing down. Stopping, Resting. Letting yourself feel things instead of trying to outwork them. Rediscovering parts of yourself that perhaps got a little lost along the way.

Today was one of those days.

A beautiful walk to Glaisdale with some of our community. Amazing company, incredible views, fresh air, conversations and a chance to just switch off and be present.

There’s something about putting one foot in front of the other that feels quite fitting for life at the moment.

When your future suddenly changes, you don’t have to immediately know what the new one looks like. You don’t need all the answers. You don’t even need to know exactly what’s next.

Part of the journey is sometimes discovering yourself again.

Remembering what makes you happy. Finding the things that bring you peace. Learning who you are in this version of your life.

Today was good for the soul, thanks for the beautiful walk today 🌿🥾

Sometimes life is big. It’s busy, challenging, overwhelming and full of things that need our attention.

So this weekend, make sure you’re on that list too. ❤️

Fill your cup. Spend time with good people. Laugh until your face hurts. Get outside. Eat something lovely. Switch your phone off for a while. Have an adventure… or cancel the plans and have the nap. 😴

Whatever you need more of, make a little space for it.

We spend so much of our lives doing, fixing, helping, worrying and thinking about what’s next that sometimes the best thing we can do is simply enjoy where we are.

The world will still be there on Monday.

This weekend, find some space for you. ☀️

Have a good one ❤️

SOMETHING BRAND NEW IS COMING TO HARTLEPOOL IN 2027…
And I am SO excited about this one!!! 🌍💃🏽

Introducing…

✨ CULTURE DELIGHTS — THE WORLD OF DANCE ✨

Once a month, we’re going to take you somewhere completely different…

A new country.
A new culture.
A new dance.
A new food experience.

And you don’t need to be a dancer — in fact, these nights are being created especially for people who just want to have a go, experience something new and enjoy an amazing night out! ❤️

Imagine being transported to…

🇨🇺 HAVANA — learning beginner Salsa before enjoying gorgeous Cuban-inspired food and tropical vibes 💃

☘️ IRELAND — a brilliant social Céilí night followed by traditional-inspired food and plenty of Irish atmosphere!

🇬🇷 GREECE — learning Greek dancing together before sitting down to a beautiful Greek meze

🇩🇴 THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC — a fun Merengue class followed by Caribbean flavours and a proper party atmosphere 🌴

🇺🇸 AMERICA — cowboy boots at the ready 🤠 Line dancing, country music and an American-style feast !

🇮🇳 INDIA — colour, music, Bhangra, beautiful food and a spectacular Festival of Lights-inspired night 🪔

🇪🇸 SPAIN — Flamenco, music, tapas and PAELLA! 💃🥘

And there are SO many more ideas we’re exploring…

🌍 12 months. 12 incredible cultural experiences.

This isn’t about being able to dance.

It’s about experiencing something you’ve never tried before.

Come on your own.
Come with your partner.
Bring your friends.

Learn the dance. Hear the music. Taste the food. Meet people. Laugh. And experience a little piece of another culture for one unforgettable night. 🌎❤️

And wherever possible, I’ll be bringing in guest instructors with knowledge and experience of the dances and cultures we’re celebrating, so every month brings something genuinely different. This needs lots of planning …

SO NOW I WANT YOUR IDEAS! 👇👇👇

🌎 If you could choose ANY country or culture for one of our Dance Nights, where would you choose?

💃 What dance have you ALWAYS fancied trying?

🍴 And most importantly… what food would HAVE to be waiting for us afterwards?! 😂

Thai? 🇹🇭
Brazilian Samba? 🇧🇷
Mexican? 🇲🇽
Polish? 🇵🇱
Jamaican Dancehall? 🇯🇲
Italian Tarantella? 🇮🇹
Something completely different?

DROP YOUR DREAM CULTURE DELIGHTS NIGHT IN THE COMMENTS! 👇

And if you’re a cultural dance instructor in the North East and you’re reading this thinking “I could bring something amazing to one of these nights…” — PLEASE GET IN TOUCH! ❤️

This is going to be colourful.
It’s going to be delicious.
It’s going to be LOUD.
And most of all…

It’s going to be so much FUN. 🌍💃🍴

Whos coming around the world with us? 🌎✈️

YOU HAD TO BE THERE 🎧🥰❤️

Tonight, the wind was blowing, the sun setting and the dark rolling in, I witnessed something absolutely BEAUTIFUL🥹

People turned up who had been at work since the early hours.
Some who’d barely slept.
Some battling illness.
Some carrying aches and pains.
Some who’d travelled from out of town.
Some who came STRAIGHT from work.
And some stepping into class for the very first time.

Different days. Different lives. Different reasons for being there.

But ONE thing you all had in common…

⚡️ ENERGY. ⚡️

Because the second those headsets go on… 🎧
The music starts… 🎶
You spot someone you only met in class last week and start catching up like old friends…
And suddenly the VIBE just kicks in. 🔥🔥🔥

It was REMIX NIGHT and wowwwww did you bring it! 🙌

We sang.
We laughed.
We moved.
We got those steps IN. 👟🔥
And for that little bit of time, everything else disappeared.

Even the people around us felt it. ❤️

People sang along with us.
People smiled as we passed.
People stopped to tell us that we’d MADE THEIR NIGHT.

That’s energy !!! And that’s what happens when a group of people come together and choose JOY. ✨

And I need you to know something…

I THRIVE OFF YOUR POSITIVITY.

Your smiles. Your laughter. Your singing. Your determination. Your madness. 😂 Your encouragement for each other. Your willingness to turn up even when the day has already taken so much out of you.

That energy is CONTAGIOUS. ⚡️❤️

People might think it’s the music, the headphones or the steps that make these classes what they are…

But the real reason these classes are so AMAZING?

IT’S YOU. ALL OF YOU. ❤️

You bring the vibe.
You bring the energy.
You bring the magic.

What A Night. ❤️🔥

GOOD MORNING 🤍

Today, im choosing happiness.

Not because everything is perfect. Not because life doesn’t get hard. And definitely not because I believe we should ignore the things that hurt.

But because mindset is one of the most powerful things we can tap into when we wake up.

Just yesterday I acknowledged a painful memory of losing quads, less than 10 years ago. I had a horrific migraine, I was sick numerous times, I had to cancel class and let people down, and I’m navigating all the trials and tribulations of opening a new business — now on my own, when I thought I’d have someone beside me.

But I still woke telling myself - today I’m choosing happiness, because I know how important mindset is 🥰

Think about those first few thoughts of what your day looks like….

I need to do this. I’ve got that to sort. I’m behind. I’m tired. I don’t want to deal with that today…

Before your feet have even touched the floor, you’ve told your brain what to focus on.

Our brains naturally pay more attention to things we’ve decided are important. So when we wake up looking for problems, we’re more likely to notice the stresses, the annoyances and everything going wrong.

But what if your first thought was different?

Today, I choosing the little pieces of happiness.

That doesn’t mean pretending trauma, grief or hardship doesn’t exist. It means acknowledging it, feeling it when you need to, without allowing it to take every good moment from you too.

I still have jobs to do. I still have worries. I still have things completely outside of my control.

But there is also so much that IS within my control.

How I speak to myself.
What I give my attention to.
The little moments I appreciate.
The energy I can bring to others today.

So before the lists, the worries and yesterday’s problems start filling your head this morning, give yourself one thought first:

Today, I choose happiness. ✨

Look for the little wins. Notice the good. Laugh when you can. Be grateful for the tiny things. Give yourself permission to enjoy today even if parts of it are difficult.

You don’t need a perfect life to have a good day.

Go and find your little pieces of happy today. 🤍✨
