In todays Fitpro Chat Kelly and Rachel discuss course and convention anxiety.

 

A topic that has been brought up in various Fit Prp online groups and a question Rachel received this week. " I am an outgoing group X teacher who loves people but when it comes to attending courses it literally makes me sick with nerves, the walking into a group full of other Fitpros, the driving, parking, travelling and feeling that I am not good enough stops me from booking events that i KNOW will help me develop my business and be amazing for my personal development ..... but I get so much anxiety I don't book" This is SO COMMON we ALL feel like this. Kelly and I discuss simple tips to help you get over these natural feelings and reap the rewards of personal growth.

 

I hope this heps you and if you have a question you would like us to discuss on the podcast send it to Rachel@Choreographytogo.com

We chat about receiving negative feedback and constructive criticism in person, on emails, in classes and on social media and how we both deal with it.

Criticism/Feedback can be damaging, hurtful and really knock your confidence but over the years we have learnt how to come out on top and use feedback to grow personally and professionally.....as painful as it is at time.

The Fitness Hack is a new podcast with Kelly and myself that is fun, chatty and relaxed where we discuss topics relating to teaching group fitness classes.

We would LOVE to evolve this and answer your weekly questions so do send us topic ideas and questions and we will answer them on the show.

This week we talk about community classes, evolving and staying relevant, customer experiences and we tackle bullying and gaslighting in the fitness industry.

We both have experienced being pushed/managed/muscled out of centres and gyms over the years and we discuss why this form of discrimination and bullying appears to be happening far too frequently.
