Team Genesis hosted the inaugural Genesis Coach Training at the C.O.D. Ranch in Oracle, AZ January 21-25. 15 attendees arrived from California, Colorado, Oregon, New Mexico and Montana.
Team Genesis arrived on Tuesday and enjoyed a gorgeous hike on the Arizona Trail before settling into an afternoon meeting and preparation for the arrival of the trainees. Wednesday, folks showed up all day long and Lennie did a great job shuttling and general hosting. We sat around the fire that night giggling, telling stories, and getting to know each other. Jayla introduced me to ‘hot cocoa’ – chocolate American Whey in hot water. Wow, that was decadent. I had no idea what folks were doing with protein powder…and it only got more imaginative as the days went on (what WAS that frozen pink stuff, Erin?)
Samantha taught yoga early every morning. For many, it was a first-time yoga experience! All day classes Thursday – Saturday were interspersed with movement classes taught by both Jamie and Samantha. Regular meals were cooked by awesome five star chef David; in-depth group assignments and evenings around the fire kept everyone busy. I, personally, had a fabulous time – and I’ll let everyone else speak for themselves:
“As with every Genesis event I have attended, not only was the information valuable and pertinent, but it was impeccably prepared and thoughtfully presented. Plus, the setting was perfect for our group…” Marilyn
“…wonderful variety of fitness classes and great instruction. The schedule was great and a nice mix of activity, group work, lecture and Q & A – this course did not drag! Fantastic all the way around!…” Jill
“Wow. What an amazing experience. I had no idea that not only would I learn about an incredible fat loss program, but I would learn about a diverse group of amazing women…my eyes have been opened along with my heart…Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of this amazing process. I look forward to the next one!” Kelly
“…we are required to take classes to learn how to drive a car, but there is very little CREDIBLE teaching out there about how to take care of our bodies…” Dawn
“This has been an amazing and powerful weekend – both personally and on a professional level!…” Tracey
“…each hour was better than the previous for me as resistance melted away and I was able to see and envision the reality of what this ‘fat loss’ program really is and what it can do…” MaryAnn
“…learning how to share this experience of being healthy and fat loss with these methods will revolutionize the health of this country…this program is at it’s most basic level about supporting people to love themselves…” Vicki
“Samantha, Sheri, and Jamie are so knowledgeable in their fields and are dynamic, organized, through and professional. The attention to making us comfortable – food, location, yoga, materials, support etc. was amazing…” Erin
“…promoted co-operation among other coach candidates, and downright fun hanging with such awesome women (and Lennie!)…” Dave

“The information, format and pace were great. Time to bond, stress-release, and let the knowledge soak in…” Nance
