BMoved4Life

Some Monday mornings are tougher than others! 🫣😆

Abbeyfield Belfast Society and Barrhall Residential Home this week for some inclusive movement. Lets hope for better luck with my coffee machine!

A lovely morning at Copelands yesterday and was asked an interesting question that I thought I would share.

I was asked if my teaching held an eastern religious bias and I confirmed that it did not. I teach functional movement for health and welfare, rather than a traditional yoga practice that is rooted in a certain belief system.

If anyone wants that style of yoga I always direct them to a practitioner who teaches in that manner.

Both are equally relevant and acceptable but my teaching is secular. Very happy to chat about this if anyone has more questions!

Delighted to continue my training this week in advanced modified Tai Chi (Chi Me) with Lifedock.

Always trying to develop and learn to bring the best classes to our local care homes and carers groups x

Its been a busy week so far and its not over yet!

After visits to Abbeyfield Belfast Society and Copelands I am on my way to teach, and also to speak about Enduring Power of Attorney, at the Carers NI conference in Downpatrick.

Beautiful morning for the Strangford ferry!

I've been reading lots of research recently that clearly highlights the importance of structured exercise classes in residential and nursing homes.

Keeping both the mind and the body active, engaged and connected is so vitally important to the health of our seniors as they age.

The research below highlights exactly why I started BMoved4Life, and offer inclusive, adaptive chair based yoga and Tai Chi.

By investing in the health and welfare of your residents, you can make a real difference to their quality of life as well as the potential to reduce falls and preserve mobility.

I am so delighted that I have amazing regular clients and I would really like to add to my list so please do share and help me reach more people!

Back to work today after a very hot city break to London this Easter! My feet are nearly worn away by all the walking!

Available for bookings through May, June and the first two weeks of July x

Unfortunately I have been struck down with a very horrible lurgy. No visits at all this week while I try to recover 🤒🤧

Apologies to all my clients for cancelling and thank you for your understanding x

A sleepy start to Monday!

Abbeyfield Belfast Society on the list for this week's visits and then I shall take a short break over the Easter holiday.

Still one space left for regular visits so please do get in touch if your care facility or adult learning disability group would like to book in.

I have space for one more residential or nursing home for regular visits. Please share and hopefully the right home will see this!

Busy busy with care home visits and sometimes I forget to post on social media!

Delighted to have been asked to take a Relaxation and Movement session for a forthcoming Carers NI conference next month.

The day will also highlight the importance of Power of Attorney and I am delighted to say that I have also been asked to speak!

Spaces are very limited to make sure to book with Carers NI quickly if you want to attend x
