Late last year, I asked Joanna to work with me and teach me a basic fitness program to help me recover my strength following a serious illness. My goal was to be able to teach skiing in the Women’s Winter Escape program at Jiminy Peak Ski Center. We had about eight weeks to get ready.
After a thorough fitness evaluation, Joanna taught me basic, comprehensive exercises to work all my muscle groups. As I progressed and got stronger she showed me variations to increase the effort involved and added new exercises to challenge, but not overwhelm me. The exercises used simple equipment: small hand weights, exercise cords and an exercise ball, making an ideal home fitness program.
Joanna was supportive and encouraging throughout the time we worked together. Her personal concern and positive attitude kept me going and I looked forward to her visits.
Our relationship blossomed into friendship and by January, I was back on skis and looking forward to teaching the beginner group of women in the ski program. My star pupil was Joanna, who progressed from anxious “never-ever” to skiing easy trails from the top of the mountain (with a smile on her face) in only six weeks!
