Guilty Pleasure - Sacred Brooklyn

As someone who hates to exercise I thought it was time to find some fun alternatives. Besides the Fitbit challenge I have with a couple of girlfriends I decided to check out Sacred Brooklyn.  They offer a variety of classes including capoiera, dance classes, mediation, yoga, hot yoga and yes, pole.  The instructors are all incredible and you quickly learn that looking sexy is a very small part of the experience.  You need core strength, arm strength and it doesn't hurt to have great music to dance to.  I am secretly the competitive type so I am determined to master this skill and get strong and increase my flexibility because trust me there's nothing enticing about the bruising you will receive as you learn the basics, but hopefully it will improve your confidence and general well being body, mind and pole - I mean soul.
