A Question was put to our customers regarding there time spent at Soca Aerobics.
"WHAT DOES SOCA AEROBIC DO FOR YOU"?
Here are some of the comments we got back!
Since having a major operation 3 years ago, I have been trying to find something to help me loose weight, get fit and boost my self esteem.
Well I found it in Soca Aerobics. I first joined last year and thoroughly enjoyed it but my health began to detoriate. After several months and changes in my medication I have returned to Soca Aerobics. I enjoy the classes. Esther is so friendly and always encouraging me, I try my best to KEEP GOING every week.
Since I have returned to the classes I have nearly lost a stone in weight and I feel fitter in fact my consultant has agreed to let me return to full-time work. This has made my self-esteem blossom.
I'm a happier, slimmer, fitter person.

There was once a young man who, in his youth, professed his desire to become a great writer.
When asked to define "great" he said, "I want to write stuff that the whole world will read, stuff that people will react to on a truly emotional level, stuff that will make them scream, cry, howl in pain and anger!"
He now works for Microsoft, writing error messages...

Yeah I moved last year in Feb! I am not in Birmingham I am in West Bromwich but I just say Birmingham. I don't know of anywhere apart from the hall in my college, but if you wanted to take that room the best day's are on a Thursday where the college is open till 9pm. If you want I will try and see if they would let you rent the room! I will have to ask my girlfriend is she knows anywhere! If you send me a Private Message with you number I will contact you as soon as I find out!
I just thought I'd come and leave a comment on your space!
I'm missing Soca Aerobics big time, I had alot of laughs doing it and alot of fun, but because I love dancing so much it didn't mean like I was working out, or is that because the lessons are good and you enjoy yourself that you don't seem to notice?
I was telling all my new friends in Birmingham about you and you dance class and soca aerobics and how great they both was, I can't find nothing like it here in Birmingham, but even if I did I bet it would be nothing like what you have and do!
Hope to hear from you soon! take care nuff love Vicky x
