Fiesta del Sol 2024!!!

Bringing so many long-time aspects of my life together at one community event is so special! I cherish this FDS show with Atomic Groove more & more with each passing year. My love of singing and performing, combined with my deep roots with teaching fitness, gets such a great opportunity to intertwine. Thanks to all of you that I have had the pleasure and honor of touching your life through my music life and/or through my fitness career. ALL OF YOU, past and present. It's so profound to have such strong community connections for so long. I am blessed.

My studentz from the AG Fly Girlz dance class continue to inspire me... watching their dance performance skills develop, their confidence grow and their friendships blossoms between them is beyond rewarding. It's genuinely profound for me. I give alot, yes, but what I receive is inexplicable... as wordy as I am, I can't really put it into words! This quote comes close, tho:

"The meaning of life is to find your gift... the purpose is to give it away."

With that being said, please come to an AG Fly Girlz dance class soon. All levels! For only the price of the class I can share my knowledge and experience with you... and you could even possibly get on the AG stage with me! Please note: any and all of my fitness classes are directly translatable to your dancing, and vice versa... it's all about understanding Self! Whether you want to learn to dance, or want to be in better shape, get our of pain, enhance your cognitive awareness... I cover ALL of these aspects in ANY of my classes, regardless of the "format". Check out MB Fit Studio, my fitness home for the past two years, for more info.

Love and gratitude!!!❤

19/05/2024

Soooooooooo fun!!!

Please come say hi to me on Saturday!

Am so very super excited to perform with my Atomic Groove band at this local event again... and to spotlight my studentz from my AG Fly Girlz Dance Class.... this community of lovely souls, all with varying degrees of dance experience (mostly little to none) all have the same level of good vibez, grit and gratitude! It's so much fun guiding them thru this one-of-a-kind experience, learning how to not only dance but get actual performance opps as an AG Fly Girl! Offered exclusively at MB Fit Studio in Solana Beach, my fitness home for the past two years.

Not only do I teach dance at this studio but a bunch of other fitness formats, too, from weights to breathwork, to postural alignment and more.... variety is the key, as I have said for many, many years! The entire schedule is filled with a wide variety of exceptional, non-formatted fitness offerings, taught by experienced, locally well-known professionals who have years of experience and and wealth of knowledge to keep you balanced, inspired and educated about YOU.

Stop by the MB Fit Studio vendor booth at FDS for more info, check the website class schedule, too!

Today and every Tuesday at 630p is the ongoing Atomic Groove
Fly Girlz Dance Class....open to all levels. Special Saturday class this Saturday May 11th, 1230p, too.
Taught by me, "The Atomic Girl"!
At MB Fit Studio in Solana Beach.

Pictured here with me are some of the awesome studentz from the class who learn a dance (or two or three!) well enough to get up on stage and perform with Atomic Groove at an AG Happy Hour at Belly Up (this pic from May 3rd). All these lovely souls have varying degrees of dance/performance experience. Most of them have very little or even none! With some consistency, grit and dedication, these (and many others) have had the ongoing opportunity to learn and grow as performing dancers with a unique opportunity of dance to perform, found no where else.
This is NOT just another dance class! I absolutely LOVE teaching this class!

Come for one class, just to have fun.... or commit to the experience and have the possibility of getting on stage! All for just the price of the dance class. The class is taught at a level that can accommodate almost levels of dancers/movers, novice to pros, in an educational, supportive, non-competitive, relaxed environment of learning.... gain more knowledge about music, movement, how to navigate within a group....and, ultimately, The Self.

Enjoy my AG Fly Girl choreography that is playful, athletic, classy, confident, user-friendly, expressive and meant to empower the soul for all ages and levels... no rolling around on the floor, high kicks, overt gyrations and the like....the vibe of an AG Fly Girl in the Atomic Groove band is to exchange joy with the audience and include them in on the light-hearted magic of Atomic Groove... to be a part of something bigger than the self. Simple movement, profound connection...communication thru the joy of (live) music and movement- together!

Catch some of these studentz (and others) performing a song (or two!) with Atomic Groove at the local FREE community music festival Fiesta del Sol on Saturday, May 18th, 1:45-2:45p. Come to the post-show Meet & Greet at the booth at 3p to chat with these studentz and members of Atomic Groove, too!

*AG is currently seeking more full time AG Fly Girlz to join my team of professionals, please DM me for more info... high level of dance skills required, professional experience preferred but not required. Or come to a class to connect with me!*

This workout feels SO good! The Stick is SUCH a great tool!!!

Every Saturday 1115a and Tuesdays 530p
"Strengthen & Stretch"

Get strong and long with Stickmobility.... enhance your range of motion, activate muscular function, decrease pain with this methodology that has been shown to produce more benefits than traditional passive stretching, foam rolling or massage. Also gain added decompression benefits of hanging and the neurological benefits of working on grip strength. Non-compressive and moderate paced like a yoga or pilates class. Adaptable to all levels.

I also quite often use The Stick a bit in my other classes, too! Fit, Strong, Core & Glutes and ReWork, so you can always get a taste of it there.

At MB Fit Studio in Solana Beach.
First class free!

These are some of my studentz from the Atomic Groove Fly Girlz Dance Class performing with me last Friday at the Atomic Groove "Shamrock Bash" Happy Hour at the Belly Up! Some of the them have learned several songs and keep really evolving as dancers/movers/performers- SO awesome!

We've been rolling out the song from series #7 "Ladies Night", and they've been having ALOT of fun with it.... both with the class experience and those who are performing it on stage. Our last night of going thru this song is tomorrow... if you're fast learner you will like the pace of this class. If you prefer a slower learning curve, join in on Series #8, especially at the beginning.

The debut of Series #8 is with a special Saturday AG Fly Girlz class this Saturday, March 23rd at 1230p. And then continues on Tuesdays starting March 26th, 630p. I'll teach this brand new routine progressively over the next few weeks.

Ken Robinson Gillian Dancer Story 01/03/2024

Bringing together my fitness family and music family at my Atomic Groove "We Are Family" Dance Party Happy Hour at Belly Up this past Friday was soooooo special. I am surrounded by such good vibez these days, more than ever, from all directions.
I am so blessed.

I never had children but I sure feel like a mom, or at least a head of the family, in so many ways.... to my fitness folks, my band, my audience. This theme resonated on many levels!

My fitness sister Mary Lou Schell came (back) into my life two years ago and graciously invited me into HER family at MB Fit Studio where I've continued to teach fitness classes and hold my weekly AG Fly Girlz Dance Class. Such a beautiful community has developed. Grateful!

Hope to see you in a class, dance or fitness, or at an AG Happy Hour some time soon!

Today 1230, the final AG Fly Girlz Training Workshop class.
All levels welcome!

Every Tuesday 630p, the regular AG Fly Girlz Dance Class continues.

MB Fit Studio

20/02/2024

In all my years of teaching fitness this has developed into one of my most favorite classes to teach and one of my most favorite tools to use. "Strength & Stretch" is every Tuesday 530p and Saturdays 1130a, where we use The Stick the whole time. But I even use The Stick in some of my other classes, too, like "Fit" and "Strong" and even my postural alignment class "ReWork". Have seen very impressive improvement of people's overall body mechanics and have even had reports of reduced pain in shoulders/knees/backs. Working on grip strength and getting "hang time" is SO great for everyone, no matter the fitness level. Please join me!

🌟 Stick Mobility Spotlight 🌟

Did you know that integrating Stick Mobility into your workout routine can significantly enhance your physical capabilities?

It's not just about stretching; it's a revolutionary way to boost muscle strength, improve balance, and increase joint stability. In our Strength + Stretch class, we use the stick as a tool to create tension, leverage, and stability, enhancing your body's functional range of motion and helping you achieve a harmonious balance between mind and body.

Try for yourself in our Strength + Stretch class!

"Super Friday" Happy Hour
Friday Feb. 9, 2024

Photos from Carrie Weiland Fitness's post 07/02/2024

I continue teaching the dance from this Series ( #7), going deeper into the dance but still teaching it very fundamentally. So even first-timers can keep up and feel successful! And those who have been attending get to learn more nuances. This Series #7 will continue for a few more weeks.

I am especially excited about the "Training Workshop Sessions" on Saturdays at 1230p (Feb. 10th, 17th & 24th). Have gotten SUCH great feedback from folks who are super enthusiastic about understanding their personal movement/body/ rhythm education/overall fitness capacity/performance tips... no matter the level of mover.

Here's a sample of the feedback:
"I don't think there is another teacher out there like you! This is a unique experience!"
More to come on that.....

Tho I've been teaching these Atomic Groove Fly Girlz dance classes to the general public for several years, I've never done a weekly class and done it with this LEARNING approach....I LOVE doing this THIS so much, and love the community that has developed!!!!
