Thanks for the interest about Neme's health. I don't know her condition and probably won't know 'til I see Lorraine this Friday. I hope her health improves.

I've begun posing and dancing for an hour everyday now. After work I'd come home, feed the cats, change into my battle gear (bikinis and shoes) and warm up (with the help of my 6 dollar resistance band)!

I begin my entrance ... boobs to the sky! Thanks Michelle, I'm never going to forget that! Walky, walky Maraina, think ... glide, smile, glide, smile, glide ... aaannnnddddd ... rest (rest pose). Whew, I'm looking good, looking strong ... yeah everything's good! Ok here we go ...

  • front pose ... good
  • front double bicep ... good
  • quarter turn right ... good
  • side chest pose ... good
  • tricep ... wobbly, need work
  • quarter turn to the back ... good
  • back double bicep with calf ... good
  • quarter turn right ... good
  • side chest pose ... great (right hand side my favourite)
  • tricep ... still wobbly, need work
  • quarter turn to the front ... good
  • abdominal and frong leg ... ok, need more work

Exit strong and by all means ... don't forget to smile!

I'm posing for a half hour. I switch my poses from in front of the mirror to no mirror, then in front of the mirror, to no mirror and so on and so on. It's by far more difficult to pose without a mirror but you try, try, try your best.

I finish the last half hour rehearsing my dance. It's coming along really well and tonight ... success! I can get down and back up from the floor! Yippee! I'm glad. It's slowly coming together.

It's time to hit the sack folks, I've got legs early tomorrow ... oh yeah ... I love it! Goodnight everyone.

I swear I don't know how you can do all this. I spend 2 hours in the gym, and the last thing I'd be able to do is concentrate on getting some exact poses right, or smiling.

I loved reading your post today. It is so funny how we all go through similar things in relation to posing but think its only happening to you.
I have picked out a song or a routine yet. I will do this next Saturday.
I haven't even decided on a bikin colour. I have a big week ahead of me next week.
Keep up the awesome practise.
hugs,
Deb

It sounds to me like everything's falling into place for you. Don't you just love it when a plan comes together. :o) xo
