Justin Timberlake – #ThrowbackThursdays

The main man. There literally is nothing this man can do that is wrong. Back in his Sync days I used to refer to him as the guy with scrambled egg on his head (have you seen it?!), and wasn’t such a fan. Then he went solo. And life changed.

This guy has moves, he has the voice that just rocks it and the tunes he brings out are just awesome. Some of my favourites are actually from his first album. A little bit of Seniorita and of course the classic Cry Me A River. I still remember getting that first album and enjoying everything about the sound. Finding a way to escape into the music and even before dancing was such a big part of my life, just letting my body do it’s own thing. Letting it find it’s own rhythm, letting it flow, sway or shake any which way it wanted.

Justin Timberlake was one of my turning points in music. He helped me to just relax, enjoy the music and have fun.

That is why when he made his comeback this year his track HAD to go into my playlist. It’s the cool down before our stretches but is such a tune every time it comes on I completely lose myself in the music and the words and just dance. The song is such a fun loving song it always makes me think of those days where you’ve had a cider or two, the sun is beating down and you’re dancing in the park to someones speaker or phone, barefoot on the grass just catching snippets of fun with friends as often as you can while the sun lasts.

JT, a true legend and I reckon would be an absolutely great laugh on a night out!

What’s your first memory of JT? or maybe your favourite old school JT move? haha share it here!

Ciao for now x

Day 31 – a month in summary

This month has been an outstanding one. Since leaving my banking job at the end of November, December was pretty quiet but January has seen things gain a huge amount of momentum.

I've given you a few recipes, explained some of the moves we use in our upcoming choreography and tried to explain the basics of protein, carbs, fats, fibre and loads of other bits that should be useful to you when thinking about your food intake.

Not only that but you've been on the journey with me as I've started to teach yoga to children and become an ambassador for an amazing range of skincare products.

Hopefully there has been lots for you to learn and you've enjoyed doing so as I've certainly enjoyed writing it and listening to how you've all used my posts or written comments on them.

I will still be writing posts but probably not with as much frequency so keep watching this space and keep enjoying them!

Ciao for now x
