2024... what's on your health plan?

“You will feel better in ten sessions, look better in twenty sessions, and have a completely new body in thirty sessions.” Joseph Pilates

He certainly wasn't a man who was backwards in coming forwards 😂🥰 ... but I have to say that many of my clients would agree with this bold statement!

Whether you're brand new to Pilates or simply have remembered how good it makes you feel, we have just a few spaces left for our new term; starting w/c 8th January.

Mon 10am - Beginners @ Bradmore - 2 spaces
Mon 11:30am - Chair Based @ Bradmore - 1 space
Thurs 6:30pm - Beginners/ Mixed - 2 spaces
Thurs 7:45pm - Mixed Ability - 1 space
Fri 9:30am - Beginners/ Mixed - 1 space

Each term is 4 weeks long and is just £34 for all classes, with options to catch up (or do extra) online if you need to miss your usual class.

Building strength in your core muscles, stability in your joints, flexibility in your muscles really is key to living life to the full in 2024!

Wishing the happiest of Christmases to all my wonderful therapy clients and pilates family (so many of you who I'm also lucky to call friends 🥰🥰🥰);as well as all my supporters and online community. 🎄❤️🎄

I know for many of you Christmas isn't an easy time and that far too many of you are facing Christmas this year with someone missing. And lots of you this year are facing extra health or family struggles - so this Christmas is not what you'd planned. So sending an extra Christmas hug to you all and I hope you find some peace and are able to surround yourself with loved ones.

Much love, Natalie ###

Have I mentioned how amazing my clients are? No... well they are!! ❤️
This week is Christmas Jumper "Week" at Essence (who wants to stop at a "day"?) - raising money for the annual fundraiser. Two years ago we took on the challenge and raised £138.. last year we smashed that total with £233. And this year... well, bearing in mind it hasn't yet started, let's say it's going well... 🥰🥰🥰
A huge thanks to all who have so far donated and to all those who will no doubt support over the coming week. You are truly a fabulous bunch!!

And if anyone would like to support us (and make the wearing of our somewhat humiliating festive wear very worth it..) here is the link🎄🎄🎄

Christmas Wellness Vouchers...

You know the saying.. "fit your own oxygen mask first"?

I bet you also know at-least one person who is too busy tirelessly fitting everyone else's oxygen masks, with their fingers in their ears to that advice; all the while going blue from asphyxiation themselves! Because some people will never make time for their self care; that is unless we give them a gentle nudge (or perhaps a massive loving shove 🥰🥰🥰) in the right direction.

That's where giving the gift of self-care comes in handy. Because not only do you take the "financial" excuse out of their repertoire of reasons. But you can also guilt them into making it a priority by continually reminding them about the voucher you so thoughtfully got them! 😘 Job done!! 🙌🙌🙌

And trust me... they don't know how much they need a bit of TLC until they have it! ❤️❤️❤️

So whether it's a Deep Tissue massage to undo their endless knots; Reflexology to ease other symptoms or even a Hypno-Relax session to quieten down their anxious mind... get it touch!

I'm a big believer in the concept of "what you focus on grows".... usually.... and yet, this week I've fallen into the trap of dwelling on the fall out from last weeks hacking.
But that's okay... I'm only human after all... So having licked my wounds a little, and caught myself sinking into a pit of Woe is Me, it's time to move on.
And today, im encouraging you to focus on the stuff that nourishes you; ignoring the stuff that depletes you, especially those things outside of your control. Life is, after all, far too short!!

I have the very best followers and you all know how much your support means to me.... 🥰
So flattery out of the way (😘😘😘).. I have a big ask....

As many of you will know, a week ago, my Facebook business page (and bank account), was hacked and eventually deleted. This page had taken more than 10yrs to build and frustratingly I had grown the page to 998 followers (id been so excited at the thought of hitting 1000).

It now looks very likely that Fb won't be able to recover it... so I've been forced to create a new page in the background.

Your support during what has been a really upsetting and stressful time; has been invaluable and is so appreciated - its kept me from giving up and allowing the hackers (aka f ) to win!

Over time, I hope to build the community back up to where it once was - so I'd be so grateful if you could please visit me on Facebook and give the page a follow/ like/ share.

Thanks for reading lovelies ❤️❤️❤️

Brand New Term of Meno Power Pilates - starts Monday 6th Nov @6:30pm

Whether you're just approaching Peri-Menopause; in the throes of hot flashes and hairloss (🙋🏼🙋🏼🙋🏼); or emerging the other side into a new phase of life... I'm guessing you're feeling like you've lost some of your power?

So now is the time to reclaim it... 💕💕💕

Our new term of Meno-Power Pilates offers something a little more than our traditional matwork classes in terms of pace and fitness. We'll still be keeping it low impact - let's face it, who isn't battling some degree of joint pain or aches at this stage of life? But with:
💕 A greater focus on standing strength-based Pilates moves,
💕Working with hand weights (no need to hide your hot flashes here!) 💕 Building strength & increasing mobility
💕 Improving our bone health (with a big focus on Osteoporosis prevention)
💕 Reducing symptoms
💕 Boosting our mental health
💕 Supporting one another

And all of this will be washed down with a large cuppa of chat and laughter - because adulting is hard enough and we definitely deserve a good giggle 😘😘😘

The classes are taught as 4 week terms, £34 for the block. Get in touch to book your space..
