New Home New Competition

     It has been 3 months since the disaster happened in December and I could not be more grateful for the way it played out. For those of you that don't know, the previous studio owner I was renting space from told me one week into December that we were all being evicted in two days. My world was turned upside down. I had just moved into this space 4 months earlier and had no intention of leaving for a very long time. Reluctantly I packed everything I had and was ready for the word on where we would be moving. After no reply to any calls or texts I drove around the where about's of the new studio until I found it. Luckily the owner was inside late Friday evening so I could prepare for my class the next morning. I knew something was wrong, the feel of the new studio was dark and negative.  Everything that could be challenging for me was made even worse by this individual who did not have the courage to simply say " I don't think I want you here". The last straw was the schedule change that happened without my knowledge.
     Luckily the book "Who moved my cheese" is embedded in my mind and I had started looking for a new studio long before the worst hit. M.E. Studio was listed on KSL for rent and I jumped at the opportunity.  After speaking with the owner, I decided to start a few classes.  Without meeting her Mell gave me all access to the studio and even left me a wine glass with kisses and a card. I could not believe how amazing this woman was. So kind and trusting to a complete stranger. Within two days after I found studio M.E. the worst happened and I  moved everything AGAIN after only 2 weeks.
     3 months later I was still searching for my new home for my business I stumbled across Dialed in Fitness. I had started personal training at Gold's and hated every second of it. After being stood up for the third free session I drove over to Dialed in to test my luck. I spoke with Brad the owner and instantly we connected in the way a sister would with a brother. I had put all of my trust in him to take me in and help me get back to the confident business owner I once was. I started right away and felt right at home as did my clients.
     Brad's wife Bonnie was always spoken of but I had never met her. She added me as a friend on her facebook page and wrote me messages as if we were sisters, welcoming me to the gym and telling me how excited she was to take my program. I knew I was going to instantly love her and I was right!! Bonnie participated in 4 pole fitness classes and has not stopped telling everyone how great they are. She is constantly working to help me get new clients and always asking if there is anything she do. I have finally found my home and my true fitness family.
     During one of our sessions Bonnie spoke of an NGA competition she wanted to do April 9, 2011 and we started toying with the idea of my joining in and proving the JW Method is a true fitness program. We started right away.  I am 5 weeks out from the competition and I have been eating clean food in the correct portions sizes and ratios 6 times per day and I have upped my training to 5 days a week. Bonnie has taken me through a bit of intense weight training and might I add OWIE!!!! Hurts so good I can barely walk without limping :D I slightly understood the intense training and lifestyle sacrifices that had to be made from watching my husband but I had no idea about the emotional roller coaster ride. Keep your arms and legs inside ladies and gentlemen and hold on tight cause here we go!!!!!!
