I don’t think I have seen Danielle or Melissa in a bad mood ever and if they have been they have hidden it well from most of us. Its so great to have people like these two around who bring out the smiles in the rest of us if we are having a bad day. its fair to say that they have both made huge improvements in their fitness over the course of the last year or two. Melissa was unfortunate to brake her arm falling from a horse during a competition some time ago but she has recovered really well and even though it still gives her grief at times she keeps working so hard and improve every day. She doesn’t give up easy that one. Danielle has always had good technique and in the past 4-6 months all her training has really taken off and it wont be long before she will be doing most workouts RX she just need to bring all that confidence she has in her riding into her training.
Both Dan and Mel have always been into their horse riding as long as I have known them and they spend most weekends going to competitions all over the country and they have had great success too. They spend most of their free time taking care of all their horses and they always have stories to tell about what they have been unto. There is no quiet time around these two girls, they are full of chatter and its great to see that passion they have for all their horses and the sport they love so much.
It is an absolute pleasure having you girls around the gym and it has been awesome to see how much you have both improved from the early boot camp days till now where you are regulars at the 6am classes at the gym performing weight lifting exercises and gymnastics movements. Will be great to see how far you can get this year and see how much it will help your riding.
