<h2>Reflect, Celebrate &amp; Plan</h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This is such a great time of year to reflect on what we have done, achieved and learned to then look forwards and plan our next 12 months.</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">I think as trainers and coaches we spend all of our time helping others, telling them to hold themselves accountable, track their results and celebrate their wins…. And then we fail to follow our own advice. </span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you are self employed or have your own studio, it’s so easy to achieve goals and barely give them any acknowledgement as you fly onto the next one! </span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">I know that’s not just me… right?</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">So as we approach the end of 2019 I want to encourage YOU to take some time to reflect on the year. Look at what you have achieved.. Write it down and then celebrate the wins. Acknowledge the wins, give yourself a pat on the back. You are building a business and helping lots of people along the way…. Be proud of that!</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If we don’t celebrate the wins, then why are we doing this?</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">So I thought I would share with you the things I am most proud of that happened for Biomechanics Education in 2019. One, because it holds me accountable to doing the exercise. Two, because you are a big part of this journey. Whether you are a Biomechanics Coach, in training to become one, or someone who likes to come on here and absorb the content, you <em>make</em> Biomechanics Education what it is. And so it only feels right to share the journey we have had with you!</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Here is the Biomechanics Education 2019 Year In Review:</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Maybe you could try our model of looking at each month’s highlights….</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>January</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">At the beginning of 2019 we had just moved into our brand new premises and were super excited about having a ‘fixed’ abode partnering with the awesome Aspire4Fitness Health Club/Gym! </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Their style being right up our street!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>February </strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Saw the start of our ¼ 1 Diplomas in Biomechanics Coaching - NOW with both ELCAS registered provider status, meaning our courses are now funded by the M.O.D </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">AND</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">We got the YMCA awarding organisations backing to offer the L4 LBP qualification within our Diploma in Biomechanics Coaching for those who have an Exercise Referral Qualification </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">AND </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">We had our 6th annual conference and the 2nd Kaizen Project with lots of inspiring, knowledgeable and interesting lectures from industry leaders and celebrities like Eddie Hall, Jonathan Broom Edwards, Martin Haines, Ben Coomber, Mike Grice and Chris Wright….BTW - SAVE THE DATE - 2020 Kaizen Project is Saturday 10th October - see next week’s Juicemail!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>March</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This month was our favourite annual event that is held in Blackpool. The International Fitness Showcase where we exhibit and lecture within the Spinning Conference alongside our partners at Athleticum &amp; Spinning. Such good fun &amp; such a great response to our 6 x lectures &amp; workshops! </span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">The Master Trainer Apprenticeship was well underway this month too! The team having done their AET training were now getting stuck into their assessor training. I cannot tell you how excited we are about this team of FABULOUS teachers!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>April </strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Belfast Diploma in Biomechanics Coaching kicked off &amp; our partnership with the Platinum Training Institute based in the Queen’s Belfast University, and was truly sealed! </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">With their 2020 plans to include our training programme within their Personal Trainer qualification! </span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>May</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This month we launched our brand new <a href="https://www.biomechanicseducation.com/product/running-biomechanics-workshops/#tab-description" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Running Biomechanics Workshop</a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to a large group of trainers &amp; coaches with some AWESOME feedback. Written by world leader in Biomechanics, Martin Haines, this 1 day workshop is full of evidence based information - you missed it? Oh don’t worry, there are more scheduled for 2020</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Also a highlight for this month for me was delivering a workshop at Mark Laws facility with a fantastic crowd! I have a lot of time for this man and so it was an honour to be invited over. </span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>June</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">While already heavily involved with the brilliant <a href="https://herspirit.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">HERSPSIRIT app</a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">, by contributing free videos of iMoveFreely techniques you can apply at home….yes, get the app for more….all the HS coaches paid a visit to Earnst &amp; Young in London. This was a coaching celebration event alongside Coaching UK to encourage movement &amp; healthy choices via any means available - like the HS App. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">However additionally this was where I became completely mesmerized by <a href="https://www.a-speakers.com/speakers/frank-dick-obe/?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_term=%2B%5Bfrank%20dick%20obe%5D%20%2B%5Bspeaker%5D&amp;gclid=CjwKCAiA__HvBRACEiwAbViuU6pRz4zPALRjy2w55HESBsERrg5zGj1sBg6jra2QVHFn7uQCHkQzWRoCxBcQAvD_BwE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Frank Dick OBE </a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">, chief GB coach some years ago. I was SO captivated &amp; enthralled by his talk I booked him for this years Kaizen Project - yes he is our keynote speaker!</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">This month also saw us finally manage to arrange a meeting with <a href="http://www.canvastgo.co.uk/ftscotland/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fitness Education Scotland’s </a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> founder, Paul Garvie. We have for some time been looking to partner up and work alongside each other in delivering high standards of health and fitness education. WATCH THIS SPACE!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>July </strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We are very impressed with the work <a href="https://www.cimspa.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CIMSPA</a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are doing to help improve standards in our industry. So I was invited along to contribute to a Pilates standardisation meeting at Sportpark, Loughborough University. WOW! Fascinating to hear 30 educators, employers &amp; industry representatives debating what they feel should make up YOUR industry recognised standard! Lots of passion &amp; disagreement with justifications &amp; well managed by CIMSPA facilitators.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">If you are an employer, you too could come along &amp; offer your thoughts, it’s very interesting &amp; CIMSPA would love to hear from you!</span>

&nbsp;

<a href="http://www.fab-fitness.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mairi Taylor of FABfitness</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> ran an Aromatouch essential oils workshop at the Biomechanics Education Academy which I strongly recommend! Passion oozes our of her &amp; who doesn't love lying down, smelling essential oils for prolonged periods!!?</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Finally this month I flew to Cyprus to deliver 2 workshops to 26 wonderful exercise professionals - the only complaint I have about the entire trip was that it was over far too quickly! So going back in 2020 for a Diploma in Biomechanics Coaching! Whoo hoo!!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>August</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Our link with the Edinburgh Napier University saw our Scotland Diploma in Biomechanics Coaching kick off. A superb group of practitioners who have been such a joy to work with since they formed such a bond they now work together at events! TEAM!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>September </strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Well I pretty much spent this entire month celebrating turning 50yrs of age! </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s times like these when you find yourself taking stock of where you have come from, where you are &amp; where you are heading - ALL mine are really great places since the tough times bring lessons, the mellow times peace &amp; the good times a warm heart! </span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>October </strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">We set up another PureGym Roadshow of workshops this month again &amp; after 5 in house workshops around the UK we are looking forward to doing more with this PT group thanks to Nik Hanley!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>November</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">This month I went to assess some Bristol Biomechanics Coach practical exams after Master Trainer, Tom Waldron delivered the entire course single handedly. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Bursting with pride would be an understatement as I watched every single learner demonstrated superb Biomechanics Coach practical skills - just their case study work to complete now! </span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Also Tom delivered a private Biomechanics Coach Diploma module/workshop in Lewes.</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">GREAT JOB TOM!! Thank you x</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><strong>December</strong></h3>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">WOW What an end to the year with a meeting at CIMSPA head office in Sportpark, Loughborough University. Alongside Martin Haines, we met with Nick Sellwood, who is the Chartered Status Assessor. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400;">We discussed the <a href="https://www.cimspa.co.uk/chartered-status" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Chartered status</a></span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> at length &amp; I have to say it looks phenomenal. So if you haven’t seen it yet go check it out on the CIMSPA website ASAP! It will dramatically alter the entire industry - come on get on board!</span>

&nbsp;
<h3><b>Now It’s Your Turn</b></h3>
<ul>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">So how did your 2019 go?</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Did you achieve all you wanted? (Did you have clear goals of what you wanted?)</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">If not, simply ask yourself why not? </span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">What can you do in 2020 to make your come back?</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">How will you be making a difference?</span></li>

 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">What training do you plan on attending?</span></li>
 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">What changes are you going to make to personally develop?</span></li>

 	<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">What excites you?</span></li>
</ul>
&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">Take some time, a few hours ideally, to reflect on 2019 and then create your vision for 2020!</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-weight: 400;">BRING ON 2020, LET’S DO THIS!</span>

&nbsp;

If one of your goals is to do more CPD, learn a new skill set and be able to serve your clients to an even higher level then I would love to have you on one of our Diplomas or Workshops in 2020.

To find out what is the best route for you to go down then let's have a chat and see where you are at now and what you want to achieve with your coaching.

We have various payment plans available for our courses, just in case you are concerned about payment... I know Christmas tends to be an expensive time of year, but I would hate for you to miss out on starting one of our diplomas.
