And with that… the 2025 season comes to an end ✨

So grateful for every session, every conversation, every person who showed up - even on the days it felt hard.

This year wasn’t about perfection. It was about consistency, growth and learning to move with more awareness and care.

Taking all of that into the new year 💫

More connection. More balance. More strength - inside and out.

Thank you for being part of this space.

2026, we’re ready for you. 🙌🏽

Happy New Year! 🤎

30/12/2025

As the year winds down, this isn’t about a “fresh start” or fixing yourself.

It’s about softening. Listening. Letting go of what no longer serves you.

In 2025, we’re leaving behind:

✨ All-or-nothing thinking

✨ Punishing movement

✨ Ignoring our body’s signals

You don’t need to do everything perfectly for it to count.

Movement doesn’t need to hurt to be effective.

Rest, hunger, fatigue and stress are messages, not weaknesses.

As we move into 2026, let it be with more awareness, kindness and balance - supporting your body rather than battling it.

If you’d like guidance and support on your journey, I’d love to help 🤍

What are you choosing to leave behind as the year ends? 🌿

Breath of Fire 🔥

A powerful yet simple breathing technique to gently wake up the body.

This breath uses equal inhales and exhales with no pause, creating a steady rhythm that energises from the inside out. Start slow, let the breath even out, and allow the movement to come from the belly.

✨ Why you might use it:

• Supports digestion

• Great in the morning or when energy feels low

• Activates the sympathetic nervous system

• Creates internal heat and circulation

It can be especially helpful today if the body is feeling a little heavy - think of it as a gentle reset, not a punishment.

As always, listen to your body. If it feels too much, slow it down or stop. Breath is a tool - not a test.

Save this and come back to it whenever you need a little fire 💛

21/12/2025

As we ease into the Christmas week, things are a little lighter - but there’s still space to move, breathe and stay connected to your body ✨

For the week starting 22 December, gym access and virtual bookings are available all week, with a small selection of morning classes before Christmas.

🌀 Monday 22nd, 9am – Functional Circuit

🧘🏽‍♀️ Tuesday 23rd, 9am – BodyBalance

🔥 Wednesday 24th, 9am – Functional Circuit

From Christmas Day onward, classes pause so everyone can rest, reset and enjoy time with whānau.

Move when it feels good, rest when you need it - both matter.

Ngā mihi and see you in the gym 🙂

Hydration plays a key role in how your body functions day to day - from energy levels and focus to digestion, circulation and recovery. 💧

Even mild dehydration can impact how you feel and move, especially in warmer weather or when you’re training more regularly. Supporting hydration doesn’t have to be complicated - small, consistent habits make the biggest difference.

Sip regularly, pay attention to thirst cues, and remember that hydration is one of the simplest foundations of wellbeing 🤍

Upper body mobility flow | 14 minutes ❤️‍🔥

If your shoulders, upper back or spine are feeling tight, this simple mobility flow is a great way to reset and move with more ease.

• Shoulder rolls - 30s forwards / 30s backwards

• Cat cows - 1 minute

• Prone with press - 30 seconds

• Blackburns - 45 seconds

• Thoracic spine opening - 30 seconds

• Banded face pulls - 30 seconds

• Hanging scap depressions - 20 seconds

• Active dead hangs - 30 seconds

Perfect as a warm-up, cool-down or a short mobility session on rest days.

Save it, come back to it, and give your upper body some love ✨

A gentle reminder as the year winds down 🤍

You don’t need to do it all.

You don’t need to do it perfectly.

And you don’t need an all-or-nothing mindset to make progress.

Some days you’ll give more, some days less - both still count.

Consistency isn’t perfection, it’s showing up in a way that’s sustainable.

Be kind to yourself.

You’re doing better than you think ✨

🌙 Summer Sleep Support - Creating Rest in the Brightest Season

As the days get longer and the evenings stay warm, many of us notice our sleep feeling a little lighter or more disrupted. Summer naturally shifts our rhythms, but with a few simple habits, we can support the body to unwind, settle and restore more deeply.

It’s about giving your mind and body the space to soften after a full day, release tension, and settle into a state where recovery can happen.

These gentle practices are here to support you through the warmer months, so you can wake feeling more grounded, energised, and connected to yourself.

Prioritise the small moments of calm. Your wellbeing is shaped just as much by how you rest as how you move 🤎
