This year has been full on hardcore!! Amazing. Scary! Challenging. Euphoric! Loving. Griefing. Merging. Parting. Fun! Crazy! Tough!! I could go on.. But the word overwhelming sure comes to mind. Phew! What a year!
In January my biggest jobs were the awesome NIKE BLASTS in Sweden and Norway! Sooo much fun and I can't wait for this year's BLASTS in both Sweden, Norway and Finland! Yay!
In February and March I had Powerstrip® Instructor Educations in Stockholm and Gothenburg!
April - my busy season private classes with Powerstrip® for bachelorette parties starts and I teach up to five strip classes on one day. S-l-u-t-t-y! :) I teach Bootywalk on top - stripaerobic in heels at the Sportlife Convention. There were som HOT HOY HOT ladies and ents on the floor I can say.. ;)
And this is also the month I start working out with a Personal Trainer. (Thank God I'd say now in retrospect knowing what the summer had in store for me! ;))
May - I teach Sh'Bam modules and I treated my two dear Powerstrip® Educators Beckis and Sandy to a staff trip to Madrid to party, shop and just hang out together! <3
This is also the month when I quit my full time job as a group fitness manager and also the blessed month of The Les MIlls Trainer Summit in Rome where I did not only have the luxury to hang with all the fab and fun Nordic and European trainers but also where Phillip Mills came up to me at breakfast on my second day there and asked if I wanted to be a part of Les Mills Pump!!! :) :)
The Nordic CEO Jesper Magnusson and moi..
June - Another Sh'Bam module and my lovely Sandra went to Norway to do a Powerstrip® Instructor Education. And I went on my first trip to New Zealand to work with Les Mills International!! Wiiih!!
July - I literally work my ass off rehearsing, scripting and training! And I fall back in love with PUMP even more. <3 And maybe not just me.. ;)
August - Back to New Zealand for the filmings of Les Mills Pump! One of the absoultely most fun experiences of my life - EVER!! Thank you thank you thank you. Humble and grateful for getting the opportunity to be a part of this.
And as if that wasn't enough I made friends for life. <3 <3 <3
Me and Jer in our apartment on the first day back in NZ for the second round!
We managed to make time for BODYJAM filmings where we were in the crowd! FUUUN!!!
Dinner at the Mills' residence. I think I can say e v e r y b o d y was there!
(And somehow I remember some of us ended up dancing in the hallway. Without music. With chairs. Hm.. ;))
September was going OFF with Super Saturday! I was hosting it together with two babes from the Nordic trainer team - Dorre and my Finnish twin Susanna! Love!
I also had a crazy fun time on stage teaching Sh'Bam 5 with Rach and Dorre! :) Happy memories.
And even if it felt that experience alone could last a lifetime, September had more to offer! I was amongst the ones who got to go to Los Angeles to shoot the infomercial for Les Mills Pump! We had such a good time and were truly spoiled during our stay there. Luxury hotel, luxury restaurants, luxury treatment. Could one get used to that or what?? (Spoiled brats, I know.. ;))
And after the whooole project was finalized on our part we took off to the Mega Quarterly in Anaheim, CA to present classes with the rest of the awesome West Coast trainer team! I taught SH'BAM and BODYBALANCE - great fun and a really cool experience!
And then I was - believe it or not - on stage for a short while even in the BODYCOMBAT class! Wiihoo - this little dancer working the jabs! ;) With a very colourful outfit I must say! :)
And that night the Les Mills party was at our hotel, The Hilton Anaheim, and the next day you could easily say we didn't do much else except use the hotel roof top pool area. Chiiiiilllll...
Then we all headed out to a rented house in Venice beach to just hang out and enjoy each others company for a few days. No stress in sight. :)
The people I got to know this summer - from all over the world, are now closer friends to me than I ever thought possible in such a relatively short period of time. We've shared so much and have spent hours working, encouraging, feedbacking and supporting each other. It's impossible not to get close friends after a journey like that. <3
October - back in Sweden and back in business teaching dance classes, BODYPUMP, BODYBALANCE and SH'BAM classes + modules full on!
November - Another Sh'Bam module, more classes and started working full time as Group Fitness Manager at Sportlife West Coast again with my great and fun colleague Sara!
December - Starting rehearsing for the NIKE BLASTS 2012 and working as the choreographer for a New Years Cabaret - creative in a different way! Also thankfully I went on a nice and relaxing vacation with family and one of my girlfriends to the Canary Islands for a week. And my little blond guy got even more blonde in the sun!
Now just awaiting the new year to come - exactly one year from when this photo was taken.
Now I don't know everything it will bring professionally. But what I do know you can read here from my website!
I just know I would love for you to join me. <3 You readers mean more to me than you think and having you to write to in good and bad times gives me a feeling of warmth and belonging. Even though I have not even met most of you. But hopefully maybe we do one day? :)
Take care of yourself and have a great HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Love and hope. Always. /Å

SvaraRaderaHar sagt det förut min skatt och säger det igen. Du är min ö. Kärlek i oändlighet. Å
SvaraRaderaJag är glad att jag har fått vara med och uppleva en del av ditt 2011, ( ÄLSKADE din klass på Nike, och igen iförd heels på sportlifekonventet, för att inte TALA om Powerstriputbildningen vilken ju ledde till den OFÖRGLÖMLIGA one on one-strippen med gamla farbrorn, och Super Saturday alltså, AWESOME stuff ) och önskar dig ett ruskigt bra 2012 grymmishsnyggåsa!! Högar av löv / din största beundrarinna <3

SvaraRaderaNi är BÄST <3 Gott nytt år finaste brudar
SvaraRaderaÄlskar er massor, massor, massor
Tur jag har som har er!
Soffan: Den glädje du sprider omkring dig vore nog att frysa ner och spara tills jordens undergång för att stoppa krig och lätta upp stämningar. Lova att att aldrig ändra på dig du är ljuvlig! Och Heeeeet! ;) (Ps. Farbrorincidenten går till historien!)
SvaraRaderaBen: You are one of the absolutely most versatile people I've ever met and I don't only mean profesionally. You are so including, caring and utterly perceptive that it almost hurts. I'm honest when I say if I could recommend anyone the day God retire it would be you. Love and pray for lots of meetings in 2012!
Sandy! Mitt liv vore inte detsamma utan dig och din outsinliga kärlek! Är så tacksam för att du vill vara min vän på ditt härliga, garvandes, icke-dömande sätt. Jag älskar dig.
Happy new year everybody!! <3
Vilket år du haft Åsa! Du är en sann inspirationskälla. <3 Beundrar att du fortfarande är så sjukt down to earth och vågar visa dig svag trots all din framgång. We all have our ups and downs right? The glory of life. ;-) Kram på dig & gott nytt år!! Hoppas kunna boka in mig på utbildningen i mars. /Fajsan ;-)
SvaraRaderaTack fina Fajsan! Ja, jag tror att den dag man slutar vara ödmjuk har man nog glömt att mycket handlar om sammanträffanden, rekommendationer och lite tur! ;) Om man behandlar människor runt sig väl så kommer de hjälpa en tillbaks eller hur? Och mycket av de häftiga saker som jag fått vara med om är mycket tack vara andra även om jag såklart är bra på det jag gör också. :) Tack för dina fina ord! Jag håller tummarna för mars då!! Fajsan goes even sexier..! ;) Kram
