Hello – my name is Judy and I am also a Callanaddict

 

My journey began in the 1980’s with the promise of “10 years younger in 10 hours” DVD with Callan … I continued with these incredible exercises for a few years until after the birth of my second child.

 

I recall how great both my pregnancies were and how my abs flattened out quickly after the birth of my children.  I had a C Section for my second child and remember how the nurses were marvelling over my abs and wanted to know what I did – Callanetics of course!

 

Then as life, has it, I got busy bringing up a family as a single mum and working two jobs,  a combination of an overuse injury and a couple of road accidents left my muscle tone much to be desired.  My weight had shifted upward by approximately 8 – 10 kg, but I was still in the healthy range and did not feel it.

 

I went to see a  Dr in relation to my overuse injury in neck and arms and he said “nobody can help you – your condition is chronic”.   This was really a turning point for me, while I was really unhappy about his comments, it gave me the greatest strength for which I am now grateful to him for.  I realised at this point it was up to me to make it happen… then as our beautiful universal laws would have it the news that Callanetics Evolution came about.

 

I immediately contacted Sandra and arranged for a copy to be sent to me and off I went….. I would get up at 5.15 am every workday morning and embarked on Low Carb eating…. It wasn’t long before I started feeling empowered and the results were visible quickly – I dropped approximately 10 kg and the strength I gained thrilled me.

 

I had decided to expand my knowledge in the Fitness Industy and completed my Certificate II and IV in Fitness and gained certificates with Power Plate Australia.

Then came along Grandchildren (now 7 years and 10 months) and the beginning of menopause, my weight started shifting, even though I was fit I decided that I was starting to look “middle aged” in my mid section – well that just did not sit right with me.  Then came along (don’t you love those Universal Laws of Attraction) The Callanetics Studio with Sandra and Adelaide!  Well, it is 12 months on continuously with Callanetics, with an average of 3 times per week.  I combined this with “The Fast Diet” and dropped approximately 11 kg.

 

How truly blessed I consider myself to have Sandra and Adelaide as our teachers.  My strength continues to evolve, injuries heal quicker (I have had 2 frozen shoulders (not at the same time) and the Dr’s told me they didn’t know anyone that rehabilitated themselves without surgery – Callanetics is a core part of my rehabilitation.

 

I turn 50 next month and I feel physically and emotionally better than I did in my thirties – Thank you Callanetics! Keep Smiling and Focus on your outcome and know it is done!
