My Body is a Cage

I would not trade my job for any other. I get to help people live healthier, more meaningful lives and watch them grow and change physically, mentally and sometimes spiritually. I get to wear spandex all day long and sweating is part of my job description. I am able to combine my passion for music and my passion for movement into a beautiful flow or an ass-stomping ride. But DAMN, teaching 5 classes in a day, and still finding time for my own practice and training is tough business. The body gets heavy and tired, and it starts to rebel. But I take this as an opportunity to find strength. It is said we are not defined by the challenges in our lives, but how we choose to deal with those challenges. And I choose to dig deep, and test my mettle. Which more than likely will be stronger than I know. I believe it is this way for everyone of us. So find something that tests you! I'll make a bet you will handle it with grace and strength that you didn't even know you had.
