Going to the gym with a friend is great. Going to the gym with a friend who's ALL IN on a workout with you is THE BEST.

My good friend Cynthia is in from the UK and I'M SO HAPPY!!!!

Rarely does one meet a soulmate in life and Cynthia is one of them.

BTW, totally VIBING on Gold Fitness Gym. Get over there now!!!!

Gold Fitness is insanely legit here in Siem Reap. They have ALL the machinery, ALL of the free weights and assorted equipment - Including but not limited to: TRX cables, medicine balls, kettle bells, workout bands, jump ropes, box jumps, battle ropes, and on and on and on. They also have a COLD PLUNGE POOL, regular huge outdoor pool, steam room, sauna and hot tub... great locker rooms and CLASSES as well. What in the actual. How have I not been here before?

I bought a 10 class pass which is equivolent to $3/visit. I'll use this for my 2 hour extended workout sessions, and Gymtime for my brief in and out jams at .75 cents/entry.

Hey beauties!! If you've ever wanted to try yoga with me, this weekend is the chance -- you can tune in from anywhere around the world for the Saturday Session! (Sunday is in person) I'm leading two classes at Down Dog Yoga Center.

Saturday 10AM EST: Traditional Hatha Flow
Sunday 11:30AM EST: Heated Weekend Detox Flow

Sign-up on the Down Dog Yoga Center Website! I really hope to see you. Sadly, this yoga center hasn't been able to withstand the past two years and is closing after 8 years at the end of March. Come practice spiritual movement with us.

Leading 6 classes a week and broadening my scope to Pilates and Yoga has completely transformed my style of teaching. I remember talking to my yoga teacher in India and he kind of laughed at me when I said I'd always plan my workouts out ahead of time. He said "I've never done that!" He was a very intuitive, go with the moment and flow kind of teacher. I will say however, that I've found yoga feels more condudive to this type of teaching. Because I practiced consistently since yoga school, when I went into Down Dog Yoga Center (my first yoga gym now!) I realized I didn't need to plan the sequence out. It felt ingrained. Amazingly, now that I'm teaching my sculpt class again (a class I taught for over a year 6 times a week in my Brooklyn gym), that the vibe of fluid teaching has seeped in. Although I salt and pepper new moves into any given routine, and I do have my book open if I ever "blank out," I rarely look to the book or plan my workouts now. I sequence the workout in a manner that feeds off the energy of the room. I'll be real - I'm f*% excited about this. Not only because it saves time, actually that's the least part I'm excited about... it just feels BETTER, more natural, and I think reading the clients and class goers is #1 when it comes to being a good teacher. I've leveled up. And growth feels really great. That's all. In general, as with anything in life, the power, growth and maturity resides in listening closely to intuition.

Hey guys! Happy mid-week! I just wanted to jump on here and let you know that if you've ever wanted to try a YOGA class with me, you now have access ANYWHERE you might be! Every Wednesday at 5:30PM EST I lead a Hatha Yoga Flow class at Down Dog Yoga Center. It's held in person and online, so anyone around the world is welcome to join. I'll place the sign-up link right below this pic! Have a beautiful day and remember: You are good enough and perfect just as you are in this moment. In Patanjali's yoga sutra #30 he talks about the universe placing obstacles in your way. This is part of nature's path and you will be knocked down. Don't let this defeat you. One of the best analogies is of a river: When there are no obstacles the river is peaceful. But build a damn and you will know the power and electricity of the water! The same goes for YOU. I hope you'll join me for yoga.

Hello my beautiful fit-minded folks!! I'm jumping on here to remind you that I've picked up two PERMANENT classes with my beloved Park Fitness BK Gym based in Brooklyn!!

TONIGHT and every Thursday at 6PM I lead UPPER Body Burn. Think: Arms, shoulders, triceps, ABS, core and all the deliciousness from your hips up! It's a 45 minutes class that moves quick! We also do some stretching to keep you flexible.

Mondays at 6PM is LOWER body burn. Think: Quads, glutes, hamstrings, core, hips and calves. In this class we do a lot of isolation work on the mat to target all angles of your glutes especially. ;) Hit ALL the angles between these two classes!

I HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!!!!!

I'll put the link to sign-up in the comments below this picture!
