In “BBX Heroes” we shine the spotlight on some of our awesome BBXers. Each time we ask the same set of 10 questions and let you tell everyone about your health and fitness journey in your own words, so that you can hopefully inspire others who may be struggling to deal with their own health and wellbeing issues, or who may just need a little bit of extra motivation as they work towards their own goals. Here we are delighted to feature the lovely
Urmla Malhi!

Q: When did you start with Bhangra Blaze/BBX?
I started in October 2021.
Q: Why did you join the class/platform?
I wanted to combine Fitness with fun. I needed to do something to help not only physically but mentally too.
Q: How often do you do BBX Bhangra workouts?
Once a week.
Q: What difference has BBX made to you physically?
BBX has made a huge difference to my strength, balance, stamina, flexibility and endurance.
Q: What difference has BBX made to you mentally?
BBX has made an extreme difference to my mental wellbeing. Around September last year I started going through peri-menopausal symptoms. It affected me physically and I struggled mentally. Foggy brain, my self-confidence, forgetfulness, no focus, the list goes on. Over time, BBX has helped me through this struggle. Week on week, over time I noticed the benefits of attending these classes . A year on, now I’m in a much better place. I feel amazing and back to being myself.
Q: What other types of exercise do you as well as the BBX workouts?
I also do long daily walks.
Q: Which is best – BBX On-demand workouts, Virtual Classes or Live Classes? …and why?
The BBX live workouts with Bally. As well as pushing us hard, Bally makes the sessions fun and enjoyable.
Q: What do you like most about being a BBXer?
Being a BBX-er, I am part of a family of dancers, coming together from all walks of diversity.
Q: What are your future health and fitness goals?
As well as the live workout class, I want to attend the weekly Zoom class too.
Q: Would you be happy to recommend BBX to your family and friends?
Ever since I’ve become a member of BBX I’ve recommended it to all my family, friends and colleagues.
