The BEXI Journey

 

We understand that it can be very overwhelming when you want to get fit, but are presented with loads of options. To simplify our programs, we have compiled the following visual image that captures our BEXI journey.

Starting at Level 1 and progressing to Level 5 – our programs are aimed at building your running fitness, technique, confidence and self-esteem.

There is never any judgement or ego – just fun, fitness and friendship. We’d love you to come join us! 

 

The Pool or the Ocean?

When was the last time you did something for the first time?

The start of a new year is often a time set new goals.  One of the most common goals is to ‘learn something new’.  We love the positiveness of this goal. It is not about quitting something (removing from our lives) – instead, it’s about adding a sense of value to our lives.

Why do we  encourage you to learn something new – here’s our top 5 reasons:

  • It’s fun!
  • It offers you a sense of accomplishment and pride
  • It adds more time in your day – you value time more and use it better
  • It enables you to meet new people and form friendships
  • It builds your self-esteem and confidence

Lastly & importantly (which really makes it 6 reasons) – it makes you HAPPY! A core need for psychological well-being.

 

If you’re looking for a positive, self-growth goal – we’d love to invite you to join one of our newest Learn-to-Programs. These flagship programs are what we are all about – passion in sharing our skills, and enabling others to grow and flourish. There’s no greater investment.

In signing off – we’d like to leave you with a beautiful quote from the amazing Christopher Reeve:

“Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool, or you go out in the ocean.” 

 

Yours in community,
~ Debbie & Team BEXI

Why participate? Hear from our past attendees…

 

Importance of meal plans

“I have absolutely loved the food! I’ve learned that I need to plan my meals, especially lunch and snacks. If I’m disorganised with these my day goes pear-shaped (or worse!).  This has been the longest I’ve gone without Cadbury (and we’ve been very good friends in the past!). I’m going to keep up the meal plans and prep and all those recipes will be added to the repertoire.”
~ Kym Gray

Enjoy cooking again

“Who knew for the first time in my life I would be taking lunch to work every day, drinking more water, cutting the carbs, cutting the afternoon coffee, no bananas, alcohol (mostly) one night a week. The best, most unexpected thing, was enjoying cooking again and trying new things. Mostly loving having the kids help out, and also getting a real kick out of seeing and learning from all of you.”
~ Kate Blix

Support from group

“The program has re-energised our meal plans & provided some much needed motivation to get more organised for my lunches (& food over the weekend) and to make more home cooked lunch box food for the kids. There have been so many meals that will go into our repertoire moving forward. I have loved knowing that the group were there to support me & keep me motivated.”
~ Kaye Chan
