End Of Semester Reflection

     This Semester in Get Fit has been better than I expected. It has been full of great memories. I have learned so many new things and activites. This class taught me alot about fitness and also about myself.

     I've learned that the only person that is in my way of accomplishing the things that I want is myself. Before I used to tell myself things like "you can't do that so there's no point trying" but now I tell myself things like "you can do it" or "there is no harm in trying". Before I used to give up as soon as I felt uncomfortable but now I've learned to push myself harder when I get to that point. I also started to look for motavation in my friends instead of just myself. This class has made me feel powerful and like I can do anything that I want to.Through this class I got to try many new activites that I hae never tried before like tae kwon do, gymnastics, snow shoeing and the Grouse Grind.

     This class made me open up my eyes about the problems that are society has towards women. Watching Missrepresentation made me realise that the standards that society has for women isn't realistic. The women that we usually see on tv and in magazines were photoshopped to look the way they are. It also made me aware of how men don't treat women properly and I've been noticing it since then.  It has also made me embrace some of the flaws that I have because it made me realise that all the women the media shows us aren't that perfect in real life.

    In my opinion Get Fit has been the best class that I have ever had in terms of physical education. I love this class and I'm sad that it is ending. After this semester is over I plan on staying active by doing things like yoga or workouts from the nike fitness app. When the weather gets warmer I also want to try and do the Grouse Grind again and actually make it to the top. I think my fitness levels have came a long way since then.

     I love this class and I'm sad that its ending. I'm going to miss how everyone always has a positive attitude and encourages eachother even though they aren't good friends. I love this class and I want to take it again next year. :)
