In December we have our switch off at the end of each Pilates class.
Please bring a blanket if you would like to. It’s just 5-10 minutes to just simply be present.

This year we have the stunning setting in the millennium centre, with the fairy lights above us like stars 🌟

A very inspiring story for you to read.
I’m very humbled to have done this interview and write this up. 🫶

As a reminder we have no classes on Thursday 20th November as I’m on cardiac rehabilitation training.
On Monday 1st December it is HIIT at the earlier time of 6pm due to another room booking. There is no Pilates on that evening.

Did you know there are many forms of incontinence and it doesn’t just come with weakness?
The human body is remarkable if you know how to look after it. The key is in the balance.

I have experienced both these states, neither of them is pleasant.

Notice how weakened pelvic floor and overworked pelvic floor can carry the same symptoms? So it is important to really listen to our bodies and really understand them.

Similar to working out in the gym, if we over do it and don’t take that down time to stretch and recover we can cause injuries. Muscle tightness can pull on joints and send our body out of alignment.
If we don’t work out and don’t take part in healthy movement with too much down time, we can cause injuries. Muscle weakness can cause our bodies to fall out of alignment.

When working on yourself, such as reversing weakened pelvic floor, it is important to relax and stretch too to ensure we get that balance right.
