Meet Sara Bading our newest Stroller Strides Instructor. Check out what Sara has to say about her Stroller Strides journey. Check back later to meet more of our fantastic moms!
Ok....
Where does one begin. I moved to Corpus last year from College Station and within one week of moving in I was already attending Stroller Strides. I started by stalking Rebecca (kidding). I ran into her at HEB and jumped right over to ask if she attended class. I like to think it was fate telling me to loose that baby jiggle that formed around my mid section and had plastered itself to my rear end.
I love Stroller Strides because I get to work out, be with friends, hang out with my baby and have fun all at the same time. If it wasn't for Stroller Strides and the wonderful friends I have made, I don't think I would have survived my first year of being a stay at home mom...and I would for sure weigh 200 lbs. Thank goodness it got me to LOVE working out.
I have NO background in fitness...and if you asked many of my friends from college what the thought of me teaching a class I am sure they would all laugh. It's true...I HATED running until I joined SS and actually realized it wasn't that bad. Neither is sweating. My Mom even made me swear that I would keep going to class all summer long, even in the heat, before she would bestow the gift of a jogging stroller onto me. It's sad when even you're family has doubts.
I attended SS Instructor Training in December 2008 and fell deeper in love with SS and all that it entails. I can see myself teaching class for many years to come (if Rebecca still lets me). I really believe all Moms need to try it at least once, and want everyone have as much passion for this as I do. SS is such a big part of my day, and my life.
I am also slightly hyper, very loud and almost always in a good mood. People mistake that for being nuts and I am ok with that. I think as long as people are laughing then it's ok...even if you're laughing at me.
