Combining Fitness and Cello

.

The main purpose of this blog is to help two people reconcile with two aspects of their lives: one is cello the other is fitness.

The two people:

Kloe (me): I am currently a student finishing my Baccalaureate in music performance, more specifically cello. And to be straightforward, the issue is that I have a VERY hard time practicing. On the other hand, I train and exercise everyday: I have a marathon and a 500 miles bike tour coming up. I love to cook and am basically a health-nut.

DK (my cello teacher): is one of the most prominent and insightful teachers in the field and works like no one else. As the hard worker that she is, she often forget herself and rarely (if ever) takes some “me-time”. This is where I come in: I will help her regain that healthy lifestyle by working out on a regular basis and make a point to take the time to cook healthy and nutritious meals.

The Challenge: Throughout the summer, we engage ourselves to log in the hours of exercise/cello practice (to each our own!). For every hours DK spends being physically active and cooking healthy meals, I must equal it in cello practice time.

Sounds easy? we’ll see…
