I absolutely love teaching these occasional Saturday morning, challenging Pilates classes. We normally arrive a little tired and leave feeling awake, pleased with our achievements and ready to enjoy the weekend!

As some of you know I have had a long term problem with my Achilles and had a partial tear to it and calf damage back in August. I have been working hard on my rehab since then. The part that is still attached is healthy but unfortunately isn’t strong enough to support my balance or enable me to walk pain free so I am having a reconstruction operation at the end of March. This will mean I will be off my feet for a while so live classes will unfortunately have to take a break for a while.
Until then I look forward to seeing you at classes over the next few weeks.

Always forget to take photos as I am enjoying being in the moment teaching! Yesterday morning I taught an intermediate/advanced Pilates mat class in Eccleshall for 8 wonderful clients who worked so hard! I loved challenging them and seeing their achievements. Looking forward to running another one again soon.

Nice bit of variety to my day today with a private Pilates client first thing, catching up on admin and then at Eccleshall Community Centre for a seated and standing Pilates class followed by an hour of dance exercise to music with the Dancing On over 50’s class. Now home for a bit more admin and a cuppa ☕️
I have been a little quiet on social media for the last few months. It has been a busy time with lots of changes. Our eldest child moved to university and I had a special birthday and have dragged out the celebrations! Also at the end of September I finally had confirmed that I had a partial Achilles tear and damage to my calf. I have hunkered down a little, just done the essentials and have been concentrating on my rehabilitation. It is still painful when I walk and it has definitely slowed me down. I have been managing to teach and my wonderful clients have been patient and supportive when I have needed to sit down or have been a little wobbly! It’s a slow process but hopefully it’s heading in the right direction and I will be back pain free and with more energy again soon. Thank you all for your understanding. I really appreciate everyone’s kindness xx
