Inspire Pilates

A massive thanks to everyone who donated. My daughter and I managed the target of 200 miles and walked 245 miles over June. I thought it would be an easier challenge but busy days meant I couldn’t walk as much as I’d like .We made it to almost halfway in fundraising. ❤️❤️ If you’d still like to donate, you can!

Some of you know I have worked as a nurse and now as a Practice educator in NHS Lothian for all of my working career. Times are tough in the NHS right now and I am hoping to raise some money for NHS Lothian charity. Take a wee look at my just giving page if you fancy supporting this cause.

Meanwhile, hats off to my existing clients who continue on their Pilates journey. Some with health complications who despite difficulties, explore movement to maintain health and wellbeing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’ve been enjoying teaching with Vocal carers organisation over the last few weeks. It’s a privilege to share some self care time with carers . Also delighted to be asked back in October to run more sessions 😁. If you are an unpaid carer, there is help and support from this fantastic organisation.

Very pleased to receive my teaching qualification through Queen Margaret University. This will support all my work in the NHS and enhance the quality of teaching you all receive from me in Pilates ❤️

Well it’s been a busy few years. Life has taken many twists and turns Many of you know that I am a full time nurse and part time Pilates teacher.

I have still been working away with my 1:1 clients and studying teaching adults in higher education.

I am now working in education in the NHS and very excited to be delivering some online classes for Vocal carers in July. If ever there was a group of people who need to take time out for themselves, it’s unpaid carers.

I look forward to meeting everyone in July 🥰

I’m sorry it’s been so long since I’ve looked or posted on this page. So if I’ve missed anything forgive me. I’m still practicing as a Pilates teacher but mainly 1:1’s and pop up classes.
I hope to post little Pilates related bits and pieces for anyone interested ☺️.....
One of the things that got me posting again was how inspiring I find working with my 1:1 clients. How sometimes , even when things are difficult and uncomfortable you guys find the courage to keep exercising and moving. Everyone has a right to feel better in their bodies and Pilates is one way of achieving that..
Thanks to you all💪

Dear Pilates People,
I’ve had a number of enquiries from people asking if I’m going to restart my class. Unfortunately I’m unable to do this at this time due to my current job being so busy 😖. Missing you all and hopefully this will change by next year. If a group of you want to get together then perhaps I can come to you for occasional workshop style sessions?
