Hair Metal, Side Ponytails, and Coachella

By Kym | Published: April 18, 2012


Uhhhhhhhhhhhh.
From 3 days in the desert at Coachella, to my last 2 classes in LA, to 1 long flight home… my head is reeling!   Here is a record 3 playlists for you music junkies.  Get your fix!

Coachella Playlist: After spending the weekend in the desert, dancing till I could hardly stand, I woke up early on Monday morning to drive back and teach one of my last classes at Soulcycle LA.  Coachella was still in my blood.
**NOTE The first song was “The Morning”  by The Weeknd- not on itunes. DOWNLOAD all Weeknd albums @ The-Weeknd.com

Bands of the Sunset Strip:  For the past 2 months I’ve been teaching sweaty spin classes on Sunset Strip. So why not Read More »

NonStop LA –> NYC

By Kym | Published: April 11, 2012


Los Angeles! It’s been real.  MAD real.  You’ve won my heart these past 2 months and while NYC is still my home- the war of the coasts has officially begun! L.A. is shouting “stay!” NY is crying “come home!” Read More »

The Great Juice Debate

By Kym | Published: April 5, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wasn’t intending to challenge the cult of juice fasting. (I was going to post this article about healthy prepackaged snacks.) But then I spotted this article on HellaWella:

WHY A JUICE CLEANSE IS A WASTE OF YOUR TIME AND MONEY.

HUH????
I thought I was alone in my (silent) criticisms of juice cleanses. I mean, it’s rare to see a health & wellness blog de-bunking them!  In the past years, juice cleanses have become like a David Guetta song: popping up everywhere, overly hyped, tough to get through, but yet everyone’s seemingly into it.  Honestly- I’ve been anti-cleansing simply because I love eating food.  And because this to me sounds like hell:

 

I spent the evening drinking broth and messing about with this programme that lets you put your face on a celebrities body! Bit silly I know, but the first three days of a juice fast I tend to just chill out, maybe do a bit of yoga but not anything too strenuous. JuicingFastingSupport.com

MY MUSIC ROCKS! (says RateYourBurn)

By Kym | Published: March 26, 2012

I made the list of 7 instructors whose “playlists blow our minds” !!!  Check out the full review on RateyourBurn.com

 

KYM PERFETTO:
if you wanna be ahead of the musical curve. 
 
…”Haven’t been to her class in a while (come back from LA, Kym!) but I still have flashbacks to her slick playlists from this past summer.”

 

 

  • Kym is in a BAND people. She plays their MUSIC IN HER CLASSES.
  • Kym is another instructor who posts her playlists to her blog but she also occasionally posts links to DOWNLOAD the songs. I love you Kym, thank you for giving me the long trench coat to assist in my musical flashing.
  • She played “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye in her class way before it was popular. Just sayin’.
  • She introduced me to Foster the People, and not with the uber-popular “Pumped Up Kicks”, but with “Call It What You Want”, a jam I still love.
  • She has a half-shaved head. Which has nothing to do with music but is cool.  “
