Did You Know?

Test your winter knowledge with these

fun factoids about this season..!!

“It’s Getting Cold In Here”... Winter has well and truly chilled us to the bone already, are you ready...ready to turn up the heat? It is hard enough to keep fit in the summer months, so with the days getting shorter, the evenings colder & the nights wetter, how are you supposed to get up and get moving?? The first hurdle is to get motivated, which is easier said than done when your alarm clock goes off and the streetlights are still on. Try keeping your trainers or kit by the front door. Often it's the hassle of having to think about it that puts people off. Research suggests that the winter months require most of us to up the level of our activity, simply because the cold

persuades us to cut back on a whole raft of simple-but-effective calorie-burning activities, such as walking to the shops or doing the gardening. A recent case in the Medical Journal of Australia showed physical inactivity is associated with almost twice the risk of developing coronary heart disease (CHD), plus, there are good psychological reasons for staying fit as well. "SAD (seasonal affective disorder) is the most common form of depression and it affects many people at this time of year," So regular moderate exercise releases essential endorphins to keep the blues at bay. Jogging remains popular, but the weather means you have to plan more

carefully than you did during the summer months. Warm up before you head out, take three layers - one to absorb sweat, one for insulation, and one to protect you from the elements - and if the wind is up, run into it on the way out and with it on the way back. But there are prob-lems. Slippery pavements can be especially hazardous in the dark, and not everyone feels safe jogging alone. There is also the risk of coming down with a cold if you sweat and are not insulated properly

so we let our readers know in the next edition!! :)

of the dry period, lasts from June to the end of August.

Observatory on 17 August 2008

Why do we might feel warmer

wearing a dark-coloured jacket than a light-coloured one? . Dark colours absorb light energy. Light colours and white reflect light energy. When light shines on your dark jacket, the jacket fabric absorbs light energy. The absorbed light energy causes electrons in the atoms of the jacket to vibrate. This activity releases heat energy, which makes the jacket and you warmer. That's why we like to wear more dark colors in winter and more light colors in summer.

Winter Solstice (in the Southern

Hemisphere) begins at 11:28AM EDT on June 21st. The Winter Solstice results in the shortest day and longest night of the year.

June 2007 was the coldest

recorded in Australia since at least 1950, according to the Bureau of Meteorology’s National Climate Centre. It comes close on the heels of the warmest May in many parts of Australia and the warmest autumn on record in eastern Australia.

Indigenous Australians have long

had their own seasonal calendars, which are different from the sea-sonal calendar brought to Austra-lia by the British in 1788. Malaparr, the cooler, middle part

Hi there Zumbaholics!

My name is Amy Smith, as well as

a qualified personal trainer and I

am YOUR Zumba certified

instructor! Although I don't have a

latin heritage, or extensive dance

background…. I know one thing… I

AM ABSOLUTELY CRAZY ABOUT

ZUMBA! But, you know health and

fitness hasn’t always been my

passion ether…

After struggling with my own

weight and self image for many

years, I studied to become a

qualified personal trainer. In my

search for the most effective way to

lose weight I have seen and taken part in so many different

exercise programs, that I have lost count! Since stumbling

across Zumba.. I can honestly say.... OH..MY..GOD!

Finally!!!!!! It is seriously the most amount of fun you can

have while exercising! We all love to dance right! :) And its

funny, as an avid rock and 80’s music fan… I never realized

how much I love Latin music and Zumba-ing… I even Zumba

when I drive! Yes…. It’s true!! …….

xx Amy Smith

Our New giftcards!

……. you even see a crazy woman dancing and singing in her

jeep… yep, that’s me! :) …….. But I do have to say one of the

things I love most about my job is meeting so many people, and

really developing a strong family like atmosphere amongst our

sessions and clients and I am absolutely loving, getting to know

you all so well!!!

Woah… I gotta go, my ipod is playing my favourite song..

Agunaile…. I gotta dance!!!!! :)
