Maggie Marshall kicked off our winter social programme with an excellent full body toning class which really did cover heads, shoulders, knees and toes!! Maggie and Cara Davidson gave us an excellent coaching display and, after a gentle warm-up, we worked through the routine with music playing to give us a beat. We stretched and crunched, and squatted and lunged, and it was great to see ladies of all fitness levels joining in so enthusiastically .... the sound of a 30 second buzzer became all that we wished for!!
After completing 10 separate exercises and a gentle cool-down Maggie displayed her skills with a hula-hoop - then we all gave that a go before having a fun competition to see who could "hoop" for the longest. There were some excellent attempts, but the star of the show was Jeannie Webster, not only hooping past my 17 seconds, but doing it with grace and style.
Many thanks to Maggie for leading this class, to Cara for assisting and to everyone that joined in.
