“Pop it, Pop it, & Thrust!” the instructed blared in her microphone. I glanced over at my 11 year old daughter and our eyes met, she gave me the ‘this is SO awkward’ glare, followed by a strong double eye roll! What did I sign us up for!?! I thought this would be a fun fitness class the both of us would enjoy and we could get some quality mother/daughter bonding time in. Instead we were trying to thrust, pop it, and other various dirty dancing moves while getting the equivalent of a rated R, or possibly X, movie via music lyrics! (I’m in love with your body…could there be a worse message for young impressionable tweens!?) It was an epic mom fail! I was out $20, my daughter hated it, & I was in line for the confessional bright and early the next morning. I had almost given up all hope and then I checked my inbox where an instructor for something called REFIT sent me a message and I was blown away by what I read!
