RuthAnne Triebner ~ Sawtell NSW, Australia (relocating to Sydney Jan. 2013 & travel to Sydney frequently) Born in Guelph, Ontario Canada

A Quick Fun Unique Fact About RuthAnne:
love cotton candy, people watching...chicken watching too, but most of all I just love to smile at people.

Why RuthAnne LOVES to GROOVE/Why she loves The GROOVE Method:
It takes me back to a time when I was groov'in on a dance floor in the 80's...like a dancing queen/fool/star. I'm almost 50 now and still love to dance but don't find
venues where I can "let it all go!" When I dance I feel like I'm having an out
of body experience (in a good way!)

Why RuthAnne LOVES her local community (what makes it unique and awesome?):
There are so many different folk, all moving to a beat of their own. Also we have amazingly beautiful beaches & a wonderful historical cinema which supports "art house" movies in between the other stuff :)

RuthAnne's vision for where she'd like to take the GROOVE in her local community:
I believe this can meet people of all ages, I can see kids groov'in, boomers, seniors, and those "young ones who love hip-hop and techno-my son! What appeals to me is the self creativeness of the program, and how the facilitator helps people to breakdown barriers and be free. Also my other passion in yoga & mediation so the fact that this program marries the two together: dance and relaxation, makes it a double win situation. Also this method of movement can work for "all" fitness levels.

Why RuthAnne wants to be a GROOVE Ambassador and two actions she forsees herself taking to help promote and spread awareness about The GROOVE Method:
I want to spread the Groove message because it is different from the "mainstream" method of exercise, which many people are just tired off. It puts the control into the hands of the participant. This is so refreshing. Plus it there are a lot of people out there who want to dance but can't find a venue that is comfortable (especially baby boomers like myself.)
