Wow…what a trip! I had the privlege of leading a press event for Nike in the UK and then co-leading a 2 day “Rock Star” training with 46 instructors from 24 different countries in Amsterdam. I was away for 6 days and it was a blast!

Here’s a picture of me and Bridget McLean, Nike’s UK PR Manager. We had a fabulous dinner at the Mango Tree, a funky Thai restaurant near Victoria Station.

After London, it was off to Amsterdam. Here I am at dinner with Jane Wake, UK Fitness Guru and Dries from Medico Vision Training Facility in Amsterdam. Jane is a Nike Fitness Consultant and Dries is a former Nike Soccer Athlete.

Here I am with fellow Nike Master Trainer Marc Santa Maria. We’ve been friends for years and Marc was trying desparately to get me to take a good ‘long arm’ picture of us in front of the canals. For some strange reason, my arm only wanted to do the short-close-up version!

This is me with Craig Smith, another Nike MT and one of the most talented dancers I know. He’s danced for Beyonce and sings back-up for Faith Evans. One night after the training, we visited this nightclub called Ministry and before we knew it, Craig and I were involved in a full out dance ‘battle’ with random dancers from Europe!  I haven’t done one of those since I was 16. It was so retro and sooooooo funny! We laughed about it for the rest of the trip. Amsterdam’s dance scene will never be the same!
