Kimber Hill and the determined instructor!

Actioned packed Saturday as usual. Again despite my best effort the weekend puts me in relax mode, which in turn awakens the 'lets eat like a pig' reflex and yet again i cannot master my palette enough to avoid eating plenty of things i shouldn't.

No CIT today but me and dozer did spend an interesting 2 hours with Craig this morning at 7am discussing forth coming events, marketing for the club and also the workshop i attended on Tuesday.

Over to Barwell for 10ish to try and get things in order before everyone arrives. Last night both myself and Richard watched the NEST dvd featuring Kimber Hill. We had been discussing for a week or so the reasons why we had felt that we had maintained the same level of discipline and control we had previously had. The answer is three fold, firstly with many new faces not all of them have settled in yet, second many of the newer guys know each other and so, at times. they act each other up. Finally, myself and Richard have forgotten to have fun whilst maintaining a united front on the discipline side of things.

I was keen for Richard to watch the DVD with Kimber in it and i also looked forward to the refresher and 'buzz' i would get from re watching it. Being a highly successful school owner and the spokesperson for the Little Dragons programme in America the women definitely knows her stuff.

On the Road to Barwell i made a firm commitment to Richard that i would run one of the best children's classes i had done for weeks, both on the discipline and fun fronts. Determined i stepped onto the mats and with Kimbers words still in my head i'd like to think i did not disappoint. I saw their energy was high and so to quote Kimber "the second they are on the mats i set them running", it worked a charm and the new secret weapon i think!
