This past winter Atlantic Canada was buried in snow. Like legit buried. And I think everyone in Nova Scotia gained 10 pounds from consumption of Storm Chips and other storm related fare. And I don’t know about you, but the story I keep hearing over and over from clients and participants is – most of us […]
Ya No Puedo Mas: Low Intensity Dance Fitness
So I was hoping to have a routine from the new Mega Mix to share this week but for whatever reason I just couldn’t get any of them in my head. So instead I am sharing this low intensity dance fitness (or Zumba Gold) routine to Ya No Puedo Mas which is a cumbia that was on […]
The Honest Company now sold within Canada
This news excites me so much. Last year I shared a post where I discussed ways to reduce the number of chemicals you use in your daily care routines, and within that post talked about how I loved The Honest Company. Well since then, the Canadian to US exchange rate has gone in the toilet, and […]
ActiPatch: A Drug-free Way To Manage Chronic Pain
As a fitness instructor with Fibromyaliga, I’m no stranger to aches and pains. There are lots of topical ointments and creams that claim to reduce pain. With the exception of two, I’ve never found any of them to work for me. Those two creams/sprays that do work are great when I am at home for […]
Rompe la Pompa: A Dance Toning Routine

It’s Time To Turn Your Dreams Into Goals, And Goals Into Reality
I know you have a dream, or two, or three in mind right now. Things that you want so badly to do or to accomplish. And how long have those been a dream? A few weeks? Months? Years? Decades? Until we set a clear path for how we are going to achieve or obtain our […]

Getting Your Greens When You Can’t Eat Them Fresh
There are three things I drone on and on about when it come to health and nutrition: drink more water, eat lots of fibre, and eat your greens! Those three things alone make sure a huge difference in your health and nutrition. We all know that water is essential, and without getting too deep into […]
