Reasons for Reflection: Congratulations Tara and Jeff
Today I am attending a wedding of one of the best clients I’ve ever had the privilege to train, Tara Kent.
She’s an amazing source of energy, and furthermore, she’s amazingly dedicated.
AMAZINGLY…
She’s one of those people that you’re excited to be around, always.
Because you know it will be fun, you are going to laugh, and you will have the opportunity to see what it takes to accomplish a vision. And, you will see someone who keeps their word.
A year ago I first met Tara, with Melissa, through one of my outdoor boot camps at Marshfield High School. The stunning results Tara has made over the past year have been nothing short of mind blowing!
If you could see where she started, and how far she has come, you’d be proud of her too.
Everyone at Robert Belley Fitness has seen her transformation.
From a girl who couldn’t do nearly a chin-up last August, she just rocked 10, YES 10 chin-ups on the elite rings on Thursday!!!
I’ve even seen her eat fire!
Literally ate fire back in July at one of our Creating Momentum seminars in the Pilate’s studio.
Her and Melissa have both made incredible changes. I’m so proud of both of them. Melissa ate fire too! 😉
And today, Tara is wedding her love. A man named Jeffrey.
And fortunately, I have been invited to her special moment.
I’m so excited to be going, to see how far she has come in just one year. How radiant she will look walking down the aisle on the beach.
The wedding dress she told us all about the day she found it, the days leading up to her wedding and all the daily preparations and planning.
The updates to her weekends and the consistency she kept with her eating plan.
These are the moments why I do what I do.
These opportunities, to see what the REAL transformation is all about.
A persons entire LIFE changing before your eyes each and every day.
And I’ve seen her almost everyday the last year.
I’ve spent more time at the studio with the girls, like Tara, Melissa, Patti, Karen, Joanne, Katie, Tina, Shelley, Shannon, Kate and their kids then I have with my childhood and later life friends.
But that’s why I have a family at my studio too.
When people commit to their lifestyle changes, it becomes empowering, moving and gratifying.
You learn so much about each other. And we learn so much from one another.
Of course there are far more people I see 2, 3 even 6 days a week, but that group has been with me at my Marshfield fitness studio since it opened. And they mean so much to me.
I’m fortunate to have these opportunities, as Tara’s wedding today to be in attendance.
All her hard work, all her ambitions, all the sweat, emotions and accomplishments that ravel into the woman she is. No doubt she will be a beautiful bride. Not a doubt in my mind.
And I’m just thankful she decided to include me in her journey.
So thank you Tara.
For allowing me an amazing first year of friendship, training, laughs and tears.
For reminding me everyday why I am fortunate to be a fitness professional.
Why I’m fortunate to have the opportunity to spend hours a week with people, like you, who also lift and motivate me to be better.
You and Jeffrey are stunning,
Congratulations Tara,
Rob
