Final Reflection

        This semester has been an amazing one. its full of new experiences, memories and friends. first of all I am really thankful towards Sullivan for offering such an opportunity for girls like us.
       I started out as a girl that participated in P.E, but didn't have a full appreciation towards it. As I continued through Get Fit and was applauded for doing my best at the end of each class. I always left the class with a smile, because I knew that I had given my best to each class.
       Now that the end has approached, I keep lingering in the memories of what we had done in previous classes. how the get fit girls had motivated each other and pushed each other out of each others comfort zones. We all had revelations at to what we could do already and what our bodies will be able to. We had extraordinary experiences all while making new friends and memories.
   Personally I have felt and have seen the improvements, I can run a little faster, jump a little higher and push my self a little harder. I never felt the need to compare myself with others in my class, which I had been doing the past years, this boosted my self confidence and I was able to focus on what  I was able to accomplish. When I have this mind set, I felt as if I could do anything.
    I want to be able to face society's definition of women and girls and be able to know myself that I am able to make a small change, if get fit had taught me anything it was that "to start to make a change you must change yourself". I am able to do what I have been telling myself I couldn't, I am delighted to be able to say so.
  
 I may have been unsure with my decision of joining get fit at the beginning, but now I'm absolutely sure that it was one the best decisions that I have made. I am glad that I risked a little to gain a lot!
    I have not fully reached my goals yet, but I am step closer to them and now they are within my reach. Get Fit is a class that has to be experienced, the warm family like feeling that you get from this class, I don't believe that I have felt in any other class.
