Sport

Brazilians love it! And not just watching their beloved football. A lil walk in the park will reveal so many different types, and a complete cross section of the population taking part. I have started Pilates classes again, but they are so different to ones I've done before. There are only two of us in each class and we use a range of machines instead of just doing mat work. Oh man, we feel it the next day. I have fallen in love with Power Plates....less because of their amazing results, more because of how hilarious it is to watch yourself wobble that much!  A couple of weeks ago I tried out Zumba which was good fun. And then there is the roller skating. Wow, I find it scary! I am determined to learn though, and must get over my fear of falling, which is I know is ridiculous as I am wearing elbow, wrist and shin pads, as well as a gorgeous pale pink helmet. I am starting to think though that my fear of falling may actually be my fear of scratching my helmet! I am taking lessons which is good, as it really helps having a professional to skate over and hold my hand or help me catch my balance when I start shrieking! Hopefully by Christmas I will be feeling more confident. I am determined to keep going!
