It's official! Our new domain name is Live:

wesoarmovement.com

After much input from members and "outsiders-looking-in," the shift from "fitness" to "movement" better reflects what we do as individuals moving our bodies to move our lives...
as well as a genuinely supportive and loving community spreading THE MOVEMENT of safe, expressive, and smart collective effervescence.

šŸ™ for your input and insight - I'll drop the link in the comments, and that should be shareable.

Be a part of our MOVEMENT and share with your friends and family who need this kind of help getting their bodies and their lives moving!šŸ’‹

Have you ever had a really, REALLY rough start to your week? The kind where you thought you did everything right, and apparently, nope, nothing actually panned out?šŸ™‹šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Yeah.
I had not had one this rough in a long time. I’d been saying the *right* mantras to myself, posting the *right* content for my biz, taking the *right* time for me and my family.
Suddenly I couldn’t turn off the downward spiral of thoughts, it was 3 AM, and WTF, Coco, you freakin teach people how to slumber!

Oh. Um.

Next day, I took my own coaching to heart, and did a brave thing. Instead of focusing out on nailing goals, I refocused in.

And it was NOT with ā€œself care BS.ā€ Hey, I love a pretty pedicure as much as the next person, but I’m missing a toenail at the moment, so… there’s that.

I refocused on ā€œcaring enoughā€ instead. Caring enough about what a colleague recently said was my actual superpower ~ nurturing a community of real relationships, and making people feel genuinely glad to be part of something.

I did only that for the day. Pampered myself with laughs during classes. And it took serious guts to NOT spend the rest of the day promoting our upcoming workshop.

Instead I did the thing that, for me, took much more bravery. I created the playlist and movement sequences for the people who were already signed up. And did that in a state of grace, gratitude, and joy.

If no one else signs up, so be it. And if the workshop fills, also so be it. That’s no longer my burden.

I’m the joy for my people, and I’m leading them by BEING the bravery.

Do you need to ā€œcare enoughā€ to be the bravery in your business, career, life? What would that brave step be today?

Feel free to share or tag someone you know who really needs to read this today (maybe they’ll thank you for a restful night)

As an award-winning professor and department chair for 30 years, I *thought* I had speaker skills.

Training for this upcoming talk/PERFORMANCE (that’s a hint of what we’re crafting for this epic event) has underscored for me the massive difference between lecturing for 3 hours and transforming someone in 12 minutes.

šŸ™šŸ™ for transforming MY life by giving me permission to deliver a deep lesson in my artsy-science-y, magical way.

I’m also awestruck by my fellow speakers (swipe to see them). Such powerful stories will be told on Nov 12, in such unique ways, I feel like I will get to takeaway so much value.✨

If you want to experience these life-changing speakers yourself, we’re gonna Go All In, all together, in person, in sunny Phoenix, AZ on Nov 12, 2022.

The Go All In Fest organizers are offering Early Bird pricing on tix till June 30 - so click link in bio or the comments below. (There might also still be VIP tix left, I’m not sure, you’ll have to check when you click)

I’d feel honored, thrilled, and humbled to see you there and hug you in personā£ļøOXOX Coco

My sleep routine doesn’t *include* cats tho.
Silk sleep mask is a must. Historical fiction audiobook most nights. ASMR video if my usual routine doesn’t turn off my thoughts.
I’ve added my own kinda quirky ASMR videos to my YouTube channel because I’ve secretly loved making them, but been… shy? about going public with them.
The feedback has been sooo delightful and delicious! One person HAD TO TAKE A NAP watching in the daytime!

The link to my YT channel is in my bio, or find dr. coco’s FLAME zone, then go to the playlist called ZONE ASMR.

I’m posting them every Sunday because… Monday.

Would you consider 23 extra seconds on my a failure?
There was a time when I would’ve.

I’m a recovered perfectionist, currently working on carving time in my personal and professional life instead of fighting it.

Today’s run was about when I almost didn’t. Because I was feeling -
My sore back
Tight muscles
The cold fog
Vaguely sad/disappointed
Like retreating into my quiet self

The boys came down for a late breakfast, and after a month or more of not running with me (when this whole thing started with my 15-year-old fyi, I was just tagging along)… oh, TODAY they wanted to run.

Flipped a switch in my head, put on the colorful clothes, cranked the really inspirational warm up tunes, and took off strong.
Then my mind started playing tricks on me, and I almost gave up at the halfway mark. WTF mind?!
Caught sight of the boys on the other side of the lake, and remembered giving up would feel worse than pushing harder.

Isn’t life like this, too? Some days you just wanna give up on a project, a business, a class, a goal, a person. Yourself.
That’s when to lean into those specific folks who light the fire under your a$$ - and just flip the switch and go. Go, go, go. And applaud your effort.

All 3 of us had slower times today šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø But hey, we had slower times together.

Need some folks to share the faster and slower times together?
I’ve opened my program membership at holiday pricing - if you’re on the verge of giving up on any hope of a fitter, happier, healthier lifestyle, now’s the time to join my stunningly supportive community.

What is Flamenco Flame Fit?

Flamenco Flame Fit is your inclusive online community of dance & fitness workshops based in Flamenco and Spanish dance, with health & lifestyle info curated from the best of the Mediterranean and Asian cultures -- the fulfillment of a long-time dream of Filipina-American Flamenco Maestra, Coco ā€œLa Jazminā€ Cabrel.

A classically trained dancer who performed Filipino, Hawaiian, and Tahitian dance professionally while growing up in New Jersey, Coco is also an MD from Northwestern’s Feinberg School of Medicine and has 30 years of teaching experience medical science and dance at the college and graduate levels.

Coco has trained and worked closely with the masters of the masters of Flamenco and Spanish dance in Spain, The Netherlands, and the States. She was recruited to build a Flamenco-based dance program at the University of Taos - New Mexico while strengthening its concurrent credit program with Taos High School. Through her company, Encuentro Spanish Dance Theatre, she has taught classes and workshops across the US.

What makes Coco’s approach unique is her deep understanding of the anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics of dance & fitness -- all of which she brings to each and every dance & fitness class. Her emphasis is on building proper posture and the fine details of technique, as the means to prevent injury, recover from injuries and surgeries, and lengthen the time that anyone can be active.
