It was wonderful to have Valerie Seah in our Strictly Fitsteps class this morning. Valerie came over to the UK from Singapore to compete in the 2018 Blackpool Dance Festival; the ProAm B1 Championships at the famous Winter Gardens. You can see her here in the picture looking fabulous as a finalist in the quickstep. It was so lovely meeting Valerie and I even managed to a sneaky private lesson! Valerie was thrilled to be a finalist in the Quickstep, Tango, Waltz and Foxtrot at the Blackpool competition. The lovely picture in her costume is her in the Quickstep final, and you can see her teaching me the ballroom hold! Thanks you Valerie and come back to see us soon!

Ribby Fitness Weekend 2018
A group of Fitness Vibe ladies attended the 3 day Ribby Hall Fitness Weekend in Lancashire. This is an annual event open to all, so if you fancy joining us next year – the more the merrier! We all had a great time trying out all the new Fitness Classes such as Ballet Barre, Pound, Sosa, K Popz, Beatz, Tapfit and much more! I can’t believe we attended 5 sessions a day! I think the Barre Mix class was one of our favourite classes Jean, Alison and Catherine are featured here ready to start. A great social weekend with great company and a little too much prosecco!
Twinkly Lights
We have all enjoyed the Twinkly Lights backdrop on the Civic Hall stage this week. The lights are on loan from the Big Country gig. All the hall users at the Civic Hall agree how great they look and I am pleased to say the Trust are now considering purchasing something similar as soon as possible.
“Oh what a night, late April back in 18”
Lots of Fitness Vibe ladies enjoyed a fabulous evening with the Frankie Valley tribute band “Walk like a man” at Civic Hall Cottingham on Saturday 21st April. Congratulations to the Cottingham Village Trust for organising such a great event. Walk like a man are fresh from performing in the UK’s West End show “The Jersey Boys” at the Prince Edward Theatre. A fantastic tribute to Frankie Valley and the Four Seasons. Everyone really enjoyed the show and are looking forward to the return visit next year.
