African Anteater Ritual....



Most of you already know the immense love and devotion I have for Tracy Anderson.
I have been doing her method for over a year now, and I am still obsessed. A bit bored, but still obsessed.
Her new DVD's should be arriving any day now, and I am REALLY looking forward to some new "moves".
Imagine my delight when this showed up in my inbox this morning. A new arm routine to tide me over until my postman delivers.

I gave it a try this morning, and it did not disappoint. One of the ways it didn't let me down, was in the, "I feel like an absolute spazz, and I can't keep up" category. Tracy never fails in this department. I was convinced that if I had a peeping Tom in that moment, he would run away, never to come back. I am sure I looked like the tasmanian devil on speed.
I am also sure that my arms will "kill" tomorrow.

Merci Tracy.

ooh, I'd love feedback of the new series set after you try 'em. I like her mat workout lots, but never really got into the dance cardio as much. Her DVDs are pricey but worth it I think. I would normally just buy them, but our damn (super awesome) cat Henri is having some teeth pulled next week which sucks up all extra $ for this month :/

um, who are you? you're cute, and you live in kc, and i like to know all the cute people in kc. ESPECIALLY the ones who possess large closets (saw a pic on your blog that you haven't written on in forever and you need to hop to it so that i can stalk you more).

i will keep you posted on the dvd's, and you keep me posted on Henri.

so funny...i TOO did this spazzy arm workout today. i have been doing the mat workout for over a year. and i too am still obsessed. i had a hard time with the free video...could hardly see it for one. but i managed to get through it but i felt like i wasn't doing it right. so we'll see if i'm sore tomorrow. i need to order the new mat workout but i can't figure out which one it is. mostly bc she changed the look of even her old dvd's so when i go on the website they ALL look new, you feel me?
can u please tell me which is the NEW mat dvd?

heart you forever?

Ha! Hi, I'm Kimberly McEvers, pleasure to make your (virtual) acquanitance. Also I'm @kckimchi in the twitterverse if you're a part of that realm. Found your blog through my twittermate & now real life pal, the fabulous Jessie of Concrete Catwalk fame. We had cocktails at Bluestem a few weeks ago. Been back in KC 1.5 yrs after 8 yrs in the Berkeley & Boston. My husband opened/owns The Westside Local Restaurant & Beer Garden, which was a superb reason to return to the midwest. I was born & raised a serious thrift store junkie (thanks Mom!), am a sucker for discount designer & have a penchant for shoes (130-ish pairs?), dresses (100s) & purses...er, ok all things fashion. My amazing closet (a small room) is OOC now compared to those old pics. Guess I've bought alot in the last 1.5 years. Recent pics:

It's ever growing, but I always sell & donate seasonally also. Jessie was going to come over & see it in person, but we lingered over drinks longer than expected. She's FB friends with me too if you want to stalk me there.

I work in women's health/reproductive health.

I'm friendly. Let's be :) Cheers!

You did not EVEN title this post from one of my favorite high school movies. And I did not EVEN do the african anteater ritual dance at a high school dance, despite what you may have heard to the contrary.

What Amy said - let's invite kimberly over to play!
