Hello, I live in Australia and have been a Les Mills fan for many years. My family and I are hollidaying in the Philippines – Manila for 3 weeks. Can I do any casual classes anywhere being a tourist. We are staying at Copacabana Apartment/Hotel Manila.

There are talks amongst fitness first manila members that Lou might not come back after her sick leave.

I (together with a lot of her loyal attendees) sure hope that it is not true.

Louâ€™s passion to impart physical fitness as a healthy lifestyle is apparent in her every class.

She motivates her attendees, she finds different ways and techniques in teaching such that it doesnâ€™t become monotonous and there is something new to look forward to in every class. This, on top of her strong background in pilates and her physical attributes w/c speaks healthy living and serves as inspiration for attendees to emulate.

It is apparent to her attendees that she is there more to teach and share her passion for physical fitness than to earn a living w/c is lacking in most of the gymâ€™s other instructors.

Per my experience, Lou is never late, never absent (except that time when she was injured on the knee). She is approachable and show genuine concern when you seek her advise evident of her good work ethics. Unlike some instructors who walk around the gym with their haughty attitude as if they own the gym and is too busy to be bothered.

Her good physique, friendly manner and intelligence, is a walking advertisement for fitness first already.

A lot of the members do not complain if instructors are new and are asked to hold classes when they cannot, yet, very well deliver their directions/instructions clearly to attendees. We understand, given the number of branches fitness first now have and the lack of industry experts available for hiring. But to let go one of the good instructors is blatant disregard for well-being and concern for members. With the continuous expansion fitness first is now undergoing, it is obvious that the gym needs people like Lou who also unselfishly share her experience and knowledge to other less experienced instructors.

To the management of fitness first, I sincerely hope you would be able to convince her to stay and address whatever issues that needs fixing (ie work place politics, bully/unprofessional bosses). As in all organizations, the biggest and one of the most important assets of a company is its people.

Aargh!!! You mean the info by the reception is totally wrong?!? They said the ABS-CBN launch was going to be on 17 January 2007!!! (I edited the above post. I’ll try to call again to reconfirm dates.)

To anyone who was inconvenienced, my apologies…
