Had a lovely time in Belper this weekend - teaching a Pilates class for Steph’s hen doo! Fabulous group of people - a lot of whom love Pilates almost as much as me, and a few brand new to Pilates 🥰 We had a great time in the sunshine then lay in the shade to recover and relax 🎉 Fancy your own private Pilates party?

One of the first changes you may notice when you start Pilates is not just strength or flexibility, but the relationship you have with movement/exercise itself.

People often then become more physically active because movement no longer feels intimidating or uncomfortable. Body confidence grows, you’re comfortable with what your body is - or is not - happy to do.

Making the commitment to looking after your body may feel difficult at first, but the benefits stretch far beyond strengthening or “toning up”.
You’re stronger yes, but your joints are more mobile, less “creaky”, you breathe better, more fully, your pelvic floor health improves, you have more energy, you know how to attend to niggles and aches. You are more willing to try new things, with the confidence in what you know your body can do.
Pilates is for everybody - men, women, young, older, very old, stiff, bendy, injured, recovered - there is a level for everyone.
Just when you think you’ve mastered it - there’s always more to learn, more the method can give you.
It’s a life long journey of discovery and wonder - of just what your body is capable of.

We move our bodies, learn the Pilates method, work to our own individual levels, learn about our bodies, strengthen, lengthen, stabilise - increase our mobility, but above all - we have a nice time 🥰🎉

Taught my last class for the Carers’ Network this afternoon - I’ve been teaching chair pilates classes for carers and their cared for, for around three years. End of an era!
