Today is a light, full-body movement session. January 2 might not feel as exciting as January 1, but it’s just as important. Every day holds possibility when we choose to show up. Today also matters a little more because it’s @Colleen Hopper birthday 🎉. A good reminder to treat every day as something worth celebrating. Move gently, keep showing up, and let each day feel like a great day to move!

There was a time in my life when I didn’t like them much. I didn’t want the attention. I didn’t want the reminder of another year. Now I see it differently. A birthday means we’re still here. Another year lived. More experiences. It's something to be grateful for. Today this feels especially important to me because it’s my mom’s birthday. Someone who has given me everything. Someone who showed me how to love and be loved. Someone who has always been there for me. Today, I celebrate her. I also think about how my wife shows up for our boys every year. Not with piles of gifts. But with intention. Balloons and banners when they wake up. Their favorite breakfast. Their favorite dinner. A quiet message that says this day matters and so do you. We understand how important that is when we’re seven. I think it’s just as important when we’re seventy. To pause. To acknowledge another year. To be seen. That’s something I’d love for us to do more of in this community. Please tell me when your birthday is coming, ideally a week or so ahead, so we can acknowledge it when the day comes. It matters. Our birthday is one day each year that marks a life lived. Another year experienced. That deserves to be celebrated.

Today isn’t about a fresh start or a big reset. It’s about continuing. Light, joyful movement to remind ourselves that every day holds opportunity. We show up to feel stronger, more balanced, and more at ease. One day at a time.

Let’s have some fun with movement today. Think of it as a little kung-fu cardio. No overthinking, no pressure, just moving and enjoying your body. There’s no need to “start over” because the year is changing. This is simply another opportunity to keep showing up. If you move a little better, even one percent, that’s enough. Enjoy the movement. Enjoy the moment. No perfection required.
