First of all, Patrick and Kazue-san, thank you so much for your support and guiding us through PCP. I've learned lots of things about my body and myself - good things as well as not so good things...
One thing I would like to share is how PCP affected my dancing. I've noticed big changes in my upper body and core strength. I couldn't use my back muscles efficiently to use the arms therefore using small superfucial muscles on my shoulders and I used to get a lot of pain in my shoulders. I had problems with connecting my arms to my back but now I can really feel my scapulas connecting down into my pelvis, therefore, my limbs are more connected to my centre and the pain hasn't come back in a while... Before PCP, as a dancer I thought I couldn't gain any more muscles as I've always being physical. So it was a nice surprise that I could push it a little further and actually feel the changes in my body when I'm dancing. Even when I was training full-time in dance, I wasn't as defined as I am now!! And I'm loving it!
Another thing and one of the greatest things about doing PCP was the friends I've met through this. Patrick, Kazue-san, Osamu-san, Takako-san, Kazu-san and Kumiko-san... Thank you guys so much for you constant positive energy and you guys are great laugh - I think I gained extra abs because of you guys..! We should defitely meet up for some more group trianing sometimes!

And, of course, a big thanks to my sister for being a great support. Saya, I'm really proud of you for working so hard and successfully completing PCP! You look gorgeous!!!
