While transferring my 8mm vhs to DVD, I came across my presenter application video for Powder Blue. Sadly, at that time (2001) I thought I was so good with my form, my energy, my class...but comparing that tape to the level of an instructor I am now...makes me say WOW! I know for a fact that TurboKick and PiYo has brought me to an all new level in instructing. I'm trying to pin point, now why would this program do this to me? What is at the top of my head is that these programs bring out the inhibition. Sometimes as instructors, we center too much on what people would think, and "oh I can't do that, they would laugh or think I'm crazy!"....That's the difference! Who cares!!! Bring it on baby! The crazier you want to be, the more challenging, the harder intense kick booty...whatever! This program has brought me and many people I see that when you teach, you are taking people on a journey where they do not have to think, they can laugh, they can go crazy, they can sweat bullets..whatever! Bring on the jumping air jax, the funky faces, the break out dance moves, the butterfly, the crazy outfits...etc...Be you, but challenge your YOU to be better!!

This is your time to STOP and do something different! Something that will blow the sweatbands off people!
With PiYo-stop thinking one direction...bring on the fusion!! Make it challenging and bring on the sweat in these classes as well! You may even smile!!! =)

SPECIAL PRICING FOR GROUPS, BRING A FRIEND, AS WELL AS FOR DOING BOTH TK AND PIYO! JUST EMAIL AND ASK! =)

“I want to start teaching, but don’t know how to start.”

“I’m certified but . . . I just don’t feel ready to teach.”

“I’ve been teaching, but just need to AMP up my teaching style to draw in more energy, excitement, and FUN!”

“I want to take my teaching career to the next level and start presenting or produce my own line of videos.”

DO ANY OF THESE STATEMENT'S SOUND FAMILIAR?
WE CAN HELP! Powder Blue Productions has developed All-Star Instructor Training! This training is unlike any other available and original of its kind!

We know there are thousands and thousands of “good” instructors. But, to achieve “Rock Star” status, you simply can not miss this opportunity! All-Star Instructor Training reveals what usually takes most instructors years to figure out! We develop the confidence needed to “nail” an audition at a top-paying club or learn how to “blow” students away and double the size of any class!

All-Star Instructor Training is a must for anyone who is teaching or wants to teach. Our program is the only one that offers such practical, hands-on training. Remember, anyone can learn the mechanics of teaching a class. With All-Star Instructor Training, our participants learn how to deliver a Rock Star performance that exudes confidence and charisma from the minute they walk into the room!

Recent graduates from All-Star Instructor Training have reported:
“It was an inspiring experience--both physically and mentally. On the first day, I was nervous and didn’t have any confidence. ASIT taught me to use a mic, stereo, cue, and how to become a WOW instructor. On the last day, I almost cried because of being so excited to teach. I feel so confident now!!!" Yumi Y.

"Because of ASIT, I have a newfound energy for teaching again! I've been able to better define my short- and long-term goals for my fitness career, I now know my strengths with my teaching skills and my (gasp!) weaknesses, and I've learned how to ROCK THE HOUSE! Thank you, thank you, thank you...and my class thanks you too!!” Kari M.

TURBO UNIVERISTY- ALL STAR INSTRUCTOR TRAINING will be held on the East Coast in Rochester NY!

The first All Star Instructor Training (ASIT) was held in Irvine CA and received phenomenal reviews. Do not miss this next opportunity!

This training is meant for ANYONE who is looking to start teaching, just got certified to teach, or veteran instructors who just need to keep working on upping their game!

What is All-Star Instructor Training (ASIT)?
All-Star Instructor Training boosts confidence and cultivates the skills to teach like a pro! All-Star Instructor Training was created to enhance each participant’s potential while they learn to use music, to move with the WOW factor, and to take any class from good to great. Most instructors just need more time and guidance before they can teach like a pro. Are you ready to unleash your potential and become a CONFIDENT, ENERGETIC All-Star instructor who knows how to ROCK the HOUSE?

All-Star Instructor Training gives each participants just what they need! Our trainees get plenty of practice using the microphone, teaching and mastering the art of cueing in a friendly environment, and using the stage or teaching “arena” before their first real class.

Each participant receives a step-by-step guide on preparing for a winning audition, getting and keeping classes, and being well liked with the members and the boss!

Learn to Master:
* Music Utilization
* Microphone and Stereo Systems
* Cueing the Moves
* Explosive Energy
* Auditioning
* Tips to Teach like a Pro

Who Should Take the ASIT?

* Instructors that want to "pump up" their game & learn how to ROCK each class
* Anyone in need of ACE & AFAA continuing education credits: 1.3 ACE CECs & 9.75 AFAA CEUs

Is there a pre-requisite for taking this course?
NO! This could be your very first training. ASIT will provide the technical skills that every instructor needs and wants in order to be successful. Our mentality is "come one, come all" - you do not need to have anything "mastered" before you join us. You don't even have to study before-hand! We'll give you all the necessary tools at the training you'll need to get started as a group fitness instructor.

How Much?
The entire ASIT training and continuing education credits are included for only $249.

Family Tubing Pics

I had my sister, her husband, and 4 kids up from NJ Wed June 27th. Her birthday was the 28th- so I surprised her with a spa day. She HATES massages- so I told her she was getting one as we walked in the spa. Very funny as she was answering the questionnaire what her skin type was, as she made referneces to her arms and legs....she was getting a facial. She never knew it the entire time she was in the room, and told the technician she didn't shave. Thought that was kinda funny. Wonder what the tech thought.

My other 2 sisters and their families arrived on Thursday as well as a surprise to her. We had a house full! Very fun and so glad that we were all able to get together.

On Saturday we tied up with my cousin and his family for a day of boating. He has a new Yamaha boat that goes crazy fast. My husband, my brother in law Michael, and my sister Connie all ventured to go tubing. Some awesome pics were taken and one of the highlights of their trip here. I'm so blessed to be able to share this time with my family and appreciate them all for all of their differences.

My sister Connie. And she didn't want to go....

My husband and the one rare time he was knocked off....

APD/ PRESENTER CAMP 2007

PRESENTER CAMP ATTENDEES 2007

ORANGE COUNTY CA

I'm headed out to the west for work, ahhh bummer snif snif. I am so excited that this time of year has rolled around again where we invite a select few of applicants, out of the many many applicants, the opportunity to train with some of the BEST in the industry. We will be holding Presenter Camp 2007 from Wed April 26th- Sun April 29th. During this time, we will work their butts off!! Seriously, no I'm being serious! =)

These applicants will pretty much work like "The Apprentice". We will have some fantastic speakers lecturing on so many topics ranging from appearance and the way you speak all the way through motivational and life tactics. Of course Chalene Johnson, creator of Turbo Kick, will be training and guiding these fresh new faces. The experience truly brings out a new side for everyone. It truly does make you take a step back, and then about 20 steps forward by the time you return home. Following camp, these folks will hopefully have been accepted to work for us as an Area Promotions Director/Presenter. They will have gone through this rigorous training so that they can schedule their own Turbo Kick and PiYo events in their territory- thus spreading the love!

I'll have tons of pictures to post of the crazy week when I return. I have one of the BEST careers ever!
