✨🌿Outdoor Mat Pilates🌿✨
A lovely group of our team took part in our Outdoor Mat Pilates session this evening! A huge thank you to Niamh for leading such a fantastic class. Niamh is a wonderful instructor who also teaches at Body Social in Castle Donington and we’re so grateful for her time and expertise.
We were incredibly lucky with the weather – after a huge shower just before we headed outside, the rain held off perfectly until we were enjoying our final stretches!
There really is something special about exercising outdoors. Surrounded by the birdsong and the beautiful scenery of our nursery grounds, it was the perfect way to relax, unwind and look after our wellbeing together.
Thank you Niamh, for a wonderful evening. We’re already looking forward to the next one🧘🏻♀️💫
