Cathe,
Hi my name is Rebecca Dotson and I am 13 years old! I recieved your body blast series as a Christmas present yesterday and absolutely love it!! The step choreography is unbelievable and you are such a motivation! I have tried various types of workouts and instructors and you without a doubt are the best! You are truly my role model because you seem to be very close to your family and had developed your carreer before you even got married. I have a lot of respect for that.;-)
I love your workouts and will continue to save up money and buy them!! It would be my dream to meet you some day and take one of your classes at four seasons. :7 That would be sooooo awsome!! Especially if it was kickboxing!! Kickboxing is really the 1st cardio I really began to enjoy even though I love it all!!
I aspire to recieve my Primary Group Exercise Certification when I am 16. I have already taught (volunteer) the abdominal end of a kickboxing workout for my favorite instructor twice!! I really want to be successful in this field and hope to have a lot of experience before I even get certified. I was wondering if you have an audition process for your videos! That would be awesome after college to be able to do that!!
One of these days I would really like to meet you and find out how you got into the field and how you built yourself up to now have over 50 videos!
You are an inspiration to me every day and I would give anything to meet you! I hope and have big aspirations of being just like you when I grow up!

Thank you for all you have done for me and will do for me in the future!

Rebecca, I really hope Cathe sees it! I'm sure she wouldn't want to miss it! You're incredible!

Rebecca I wish you the very best at what you want in life and never give up on your dream!!!

I want to thank Cathe also.... she is an awesome woman. I love your workouts and you have excellent cuing. Your workouts are easy to following because of your gift of being a outstanding fitness professional.... I am a kickbox instructor and I am working on being able to talk and cue as well as you... all while smiling and catching my breath! :7
 
...bumping for Rebecca (since Cathe has been on the forum today!)

What a well written heartfelt letter to Cathe. You'll soon be a Cathe addict like the rest of us- Actually, it sounds like you already are:p

And, NEVER give up on your dream! As I heard the other day, "No" is a foreign language you should never understand.:)
 
You guys motivate me every time I get on the forum!!!

I am so excited! I get to teach the warmup for a kickbox class next Saturday so I have to go watch all of Cathe's warmups that I have and decide what I am going to use!!

Yes, I think I am already a Cathe addict!! I just love her and admire her so much!

Kick, Punch and Crunch here I come! (I'm gonna go work out with my favorite workout in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD!)

Hi Rebecca! I have been wanting to reply to you all day since reading your post earlier this afternoon but had one of those days that kept me from being able to focus on any one thing for too long.

You are just too sweet to say all of those very kind things about me. I am more than flattered (and blushing quite a bit too). Thank You!

I would certainly welcome the opportunity to chat with you to answer your questions. I think it would be great fun. We can set that up through email.

But for now, if I were going to give you any advice it would definitely be to "follow your dreams and they will take you far". I can tell by your post that you have the passion and the burning desire to pursue this field. That is the most important ingredient right there. That was the same itch that I experienced as a young teenager. An energy that nobody could tame. A pursuit that needed to be fulfilled.

I shared (and still do) the same excitements, strived to learn more, wanted to be fully prepared, wanted to be the best I could be and wanted to probe the minds of others who were in positions that I wanted to be in. I had an insatiable desire to never settle, keep reaching for the next star, and establish professional relationships along the way that would help me grow and continue to grow(and vice versa).

I see that energy and desire in you already at the age of 13. How inspiring. I can see that you will go very far and I'm honored that I was able to play a small part in igniting that spark in you.

Looking forward to chatting more in the future!

Take Care Rebecca,

Cathe
 
Cathe,
I may have a person(instructor that has produced 5 or 6 videos that is an instructor at the YMCA I have a membership to) that could give me your email address, if it is still accurate. I won't say her name but she lives in Kingsport, Tennessee if that gives any clues. That way you or I wouldn't have to supply any personal info on the forums to be able to communicate. :)

Of course only if that is ok with you for me to have your email address!

Hope to chat soon!
Rebecca Dotson
