Owner's EDGE

Frequently, women think that there is a glass ceiling inhibiting their ability to reach that promotion or raise. However, sometimes it's just selecting the right cleats or gym shoes for the climb! Often, perceived gender roles coupled with personal insecurities or impressions inhibit women in their rise to the top. Women should learn to play the game, and better understand the playing field. Women need to learn how to get picked for the team and which uniform to wear when scoring the winning goal. Understanding these rules of the game and how they apply to the climb can help us to climb the corporate ladder.

Girls are raised to be seen and not heard. They are taught to be careful and not get dirty, to play by the rules, to be polite, and to easily take "no" for an answer.

The Flirty Girl Booty Beat class format is specifically designed for health clubs, dance studios, and instructors can also independently teach classes at any location of their choosing. The dances are based on the hottest moves from your favorite music videos and club dancing. Unlike other dance programs, Flirty Girl is based on 32 beat counts, with the moves progressively taught so beginners can master the class their very first time. Each move is broken down using the F.L.I.R.T. cueing methodology, then brought up to tempo, and then the next move stacked on. With the support of ongoing choreography, the classes are always fresh and exciting!

Attend a one-day Flirtification workshop or complete the At-Home Flirtification course. Both include everything you need to get started teaching the next day, including the Flirty Girl Instructor manual, dance routine choreography, sample class formats, three instructional dvds, and music cd. The live workshops include 6 CECs for SCW, 0.6 CECs for ACE, and 6 CEUs for AFAA. Cost is $199—but only $169 at a MANIA near you! Flirty Girl provides ongoing choreography and there is no site licensing fees. Dance today, teach tomorrow.

An effective aquatic exercise program should cause success to swell for both instructors and members, challenging instructors to engage and improve while delivering maximum results to your clients. In the Mid-Atlantic region, WATERinMOTION® is proving to be a reservoir of retention for RMH Wellness Center in Harrisonburg, VA.

From music to movement, this program continues to bring a fresh and fluid approach to health clubs and facilities around the world.

"They love the music," said Catherine Thornton, Group Fitness Manager at RMH Wellness Center, who said that both instructors and members are taking a genuine interest in all WATERinMOTION® has to offer. "There's a variety of music—both newer songs and older songs—and choreography that they've never done before."

Instructors love the change, and a pre-choreographed program is proving to be a perfect companion for the busy instructor. Water has always been a bit of a dark horse for land-locked fitness enthusiasts, but can be an ideal environment in which both instructors and participants can cross-train.

The human body is miraculous machine that allows humans to function in a multitude of different environments. As with most aspects of life, the human body requires a state of balance or homeostasis. For example, upon walking outside in a cold winter day the body uses negative feedback reflexes of the skin to maintain the internal body temperature. Alternatively, when the body's temperature rises it responds to the increase through perspiration to balance the temperature. The collaborative efforts of the body's systems allow for everyone to function optimally.

The muscular and skeletal systems also require a state of balance parallel to the instances above. The muscles and the skeletal system works synergistically to maintain posture and body alignment. However, the human body does not provide an automatic feedback mechanism to correctly align our posture. Therefore, when muscular imbalances develop the body results in poor posture. Simple day-to-day activities or occupational tasks impose significant influence on posture.
