Just Keep Swimming


I’m nervous, the music is blaring, I’m sweating and trying to copy a series of dance moves; but I can’t do the moves and instead it looks like I have lost all co-ordination. I wished I could say I was incredibly drunk and I was trying to dance in some random nightclub, but I am actually in a ‘Total Body Conditioning’ class. It feels like whilst I perform my dance warm up moves- completely out of sync by the way- that the instructor and the rest of the  people in the class are staring at me in disbelief, but I am happy. I am able to exercise again with only a very slight feeling of pain in my calf, and for me that is a huge step in the right direction.
