I made it last night. It is my favorite. The secret is to purchase a tight and long t-shirt made of spandex and other artificial fibers. They fit so nicely without getting too saggy like cotton. Just for the record, I have no make-up on in the above pics as they were taken early this morning before working out.<\/p>\n<p>Having to make some decisions today. I am forging ahead in many career directions at the moment&#8211;getting BC teaching certified for the k-12 system, starting my own e-Publishing house, pushing forward with my Zumba teaching. I pay a lot of money in certification fees for teaching in BC and Zumba. And now it seems, if I want to teach for gyms, I must get my FA certification to teach in Canada. It is all bureaucracy and ways to keep associations a float. But in truth, remaining Zumba certified is very expensive and to put more yearly fees on top of that I need to be seriously teaching a lot of fitness classes. So, do I want to get certified to teach in gyms? If I make that choice I have to be prepared to really teach a lot of fitness to make up for all of the fees. I need to make choices on what areas of my career to focus on at this time. Everything requires money to stay in the field.<\/p>\n<p>Fitness is wonderful. I adore dancing and working out in every way. I can head to a class feeling so blah and tired and really not wanting to teach at all. And after the class I leave a different woman. I am happy, energetic and pumped about life. It is a magic pill for me. But don&#8217;t get me wrong. It is a very competitive business and ageism is rampant. I am teaching along side women 20 years younger than me.<br \/>At my age (40s) one has to be fitter, a better dancer and teacher, than the competition. It helps that I am a fashionista too \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>Dropped off 100 buttons for Pip at her school (we forgot it was 100 day until Tabs called me from school this morning), dropped Mist and a friend off down town at the Community Theatre in prep for their huge band concert tonight&#8211;all before 9 AM this morning. Now time to start my day.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My latest Cut-Up T-Shirt creation. I made it last night. It is my favorite.
