I thought I might title this entry: Attack of the 50 Foot
Woman but thought better of it so as not to scare anyone away. That title was
actually a sci-fi movie of the same name
dated 1958 with probably the worst special effects captured on celluloid film. The
heroine grown to mythic proportions is transparent throughout because CGI hadn’t
been invented just yet.
Jenny on the other hand has quite genuine “special effects”
resplendent with the talent of some of the best spin instructors I’ve
experienced at my former home at Equinox in New York. Ms. Little displays the
science of Dana Mancini who was remarkable for making class an “inside job” and
the athleticism of Rocky who took my physiology “once step beyond” what I
thought I was capable of and of course the Queen of spin Kristen James whose
charm and charisma sparked my “afflatus” in many of my writings here on the
net.
Jenny today this Sunday reignited my blue flame which I have
to say I thought had just run out of propane. Five and a half years of spinning
yarns literally about spin class had me thinking that this series was just
done. What else could I say? Well maybe a new chapter new geography a new face
might just put a new spin on my flywheel. I could complain that the Spinner
bikes at 24 Hour Fitness are a bit long in the tooth with no onboard computer
or creature comforts I had grown accustomed to back in Woodbury but Jenny Little
made me forget that at rides end my butt hurt like the Dickens as her repertoire
was positively ingenious for its complexity but simplicity in her delivery.
Tempo, a driving rhythm, short breaks and a discogrpahy that was silky. Off the
bike and on the bike Jenny moves with a fluidity of a Gene Kelly and the
strength of a decathalete she is.
I will be back Jenny and thanks for bringing me back to
something I really love.
