Thanks! I like the P&J oils that are on Amazon. I have some Autumn scents on my wish list. I love their pumpkin oil. I actually wear it as perfume
Their customer service is great, and they pack the shipments well.

Hi Everyone,

I thank my Secret Santa in advance. Gently used DVDs are fine. All of these are on Mary's website. Here goes:

Jayne Engeman- GI Jayne Fitness Kickboxing
Sara Haley- Sweat Unlimited
Michele Dozois- On the Go Workouts
Ellen Barrett- Peace, Love and Cardio
Tonique- any. I don't have these

Linda Wooldridge:
Barlates Body Blitz Cardio Sculpt Fusion
Pilates Barre Fusion
Barlates Body Blitz Barre Intermediate
Barlates Body Blitz Clever Yoga Fusion

Book:
Inspiralize Everything by Ali Mafucci (on Amazon)
Big 10 Paleo Spiralizer Cookbook by Megan Peterson (Amazon)

I also like almost any art supplies (kneaded erasers, sketching pencils, colored pencils, gel markers, paper stumps, sketchbooks, etc.) If you want to see an example of my art, check out my profile picture.

Other items are coffee--no Starbucks please! I like Dunkin and Hazelnut flavored coffee, but not a strong roast. I also like chocolate covered espresso beans and odd coffee mugs (particularly college themed, but also exercise themed).

Thank you so much!

Lori

Hello,
Thank you Santa for whatever gifts you give me. I am happy with whatever you send my way.
Some ideas that may help you shop for me are below:

DVDs:
Stepletics – Amy Bento Ross
Body Box – Amy Bento Ross
Get Ripped Express – Jari Love
Rapid Fire 1 and/or 2 – Susan Chung


Fitness:
Funny workout tank tops/tshirts in Medium or Large - I like ones with silly sayings on them

Non-Fitness:
I LOVE homemade/natural soaps with essential oils. As long as they're all natural and made with essential oils, I like anything.
I LOVE to knit, so any fingering sock yarn would be great - enough to make a pair of socks, which is usually at least 400+ yards. Any colors are fine but I like colors and am particularly on the hunt for rainbow yarn.
I love cookbooks, particularly Mediterranean food.

I love dark chocolate - 60-75%.
I love nice olive oils and natural sea salts for cooking.


Thank you very much!!


Eva

Hi there Secret Santa, and thank you for reading my wish list!

Last year was my first time in participating in the Holiday Gift Exchange. It was a lot of fun, and a great way to get to know other VFers.

I am a 21 year old male, and currently work part-time at the local community college bookstore. As you will see in my disclosure, I became a licensed Zumba instructor. In August, I took the Basic Steps Level 1 (aka B1) training

I enjoy a wide variety of workouts. My favorites are Firms (BBH and spinoffs like FitPrime, WHFN, and Tracie Long), Kelly Coffey-Meyer, Pilates, fusion workouts, and yoga. I only dabble in Cathe workouts. I also like to cross-train with barre workouts. Oh, and I'm a fan of live Zumba classes! Fitness-level wise, I range from low intermediate to low advanced (depending on the workout). Overall, I consider myself high intermediate.

Hobby-wise, I love to knit as well as crochet, and am a casual video gamer (favorites are Super Mario, Donkey Kong, Rock Band, and dancing games like Just Dance, Dance Central, and Dance Dance Revolution) and game show junkie. I'm also a fan of pool/billiards.

My wish list is long, but that's only to give you a wide range of options. Feel free to suprise me with something that's not on my wish list. This list is just to give you some ideas. Used DVDs are also great. Check back, as I may add more items to my list!

Hello Secret Santa,

I am always excited to participate in this event every year. I am posting now however I may come back and add or provide more detail to this later.
A little bit about me: I am married and have two kids. Next year I will be an empty nester. We also have a dog (my best buddy) and a cat. My fitness activities include strength training, metabolic workouts and walking(sometimes with my best buddy but she walks SLOW.) I also do Chinese Martial Arts/Energy Work (KungFu, Tai Chi and QiGong) I love travelling and enjoy being outdoors. I also love to read-fiction and non-fiction.

Here are some things that are of interest to me at the moment. I don't need much and I am trying to simplify so less is better in my book. I just listed things to give you ideas. I will be thrilled with anything I receive. My amazon wish list has many of the items below plus some extras: http://a.co/dIgi1zf

DVDs: used is fine.
-Essentrics Full Body Toning
-J. Brown's Yoga DVD-Life Hurts This Helps
-Jessica Smith Gentle Yoga for Flexibility, Balance and Mobility

Wii Games:
The Hip Hop Dance Experience

Non DVD Fitness Items:
-Fitness Themed Mugs
-Chinese Martial Arts themed mugs (e.g. ying/yang, dragons etc.)
-Fitness Themed Jewelry/Key Rings like: https://www.g2oh.com/women/jewelry
-Yoga grippy gloves
-Books about the Internal Martial Arts (Qi Gong, Bagua etc.)
-This is a long shot and I don't want you to actually go out and buy this but if you have the Udaya "Find your Practice" USB stick and want to get rid of it I am interested. Would even be interested in just trying it.

Miscellaneous:
-Teas: Green with Ginger or Lemon or both (no honey flavor please) I also like Genmaicha tea. I cannot drink black tea.
-Foot Cream (and thin socks to wear with them at night) I walk a lot and my feet take a beating.
-Grippy socks (size 7-8) so I don't slip on my wood floors and kill myself-I have had some recent near misses.
-No candles please as I have so many already. However those scented gel beads are nice. I like citrus/herbal/outdoorsy-evergreen scents. My favorites are Pier 1 Imports Citrus Cilantro and bamboo.
I dislike fruity, vanilla, food and heavy spice scents. Lavender is OK

Thanks again and I will post more if I think of anything.

I have to crack up-I had put Philosophy's Vanilla Birthday Cake lip gloss (or something similar to that) on my wish list. I looked on Amazon, and someone is selling it for $5,400!
