It’s Lubenham Scarecrow Festival this weekend and Bob (previous jobs include bellringer and window cleaner) is trying his hand at being a Pilates Instructor.

I’ve never seen single leg stretch look like a footballer with a hamstring injury!!

🍂 Return to Life 🍂

This September, our Pilates theme is Return to Life, inspired by Joseph Pilates' book of the same name.

As we do each September, we'll return to the fundamentals — revisiting, reconnecting and then building from there.

Why? Because sometimes it's good to look back and notice how far you've come. Movements that once felt difficult may now be familiar; your body has remembered and embodied more than you realise.

For those new to Pilates, it's a chance to learn the foundations without feeling pressured to keep up. For our regulars, there will always be opportunities to deepen your practice through adaptations and progressions.

Wherever you're starting from, we'll start there — and build together.

Join us this term:

📍 Where: Crick Old School, Crick

🗓️ When: Tuesday Evenings, 7pm-8pm

📅 Term starts: 7th September 2026

Hello everyone! 👋

The Summer holidays are drawing to a close and I hope everyone enjoyed them and had relaxing moments.

I am popping on to say that my Pilates sessions are starting back this week with the theme of 'Return to Life'. Following the name of Joseph Pilates book, this term we arw working deeply into the Pilates system.

Ready to join me? You can book your place via https://newskins-collective.square.site/matpilates. I’d love to welcome you to a class!

A Bit About me?
I am Claire and I have been teaching Mat Pilates for 8 years. I use community halls over gyms for the local community feel and can even come to you where needed. I teach Classical Mat Pilates with modern adaptations, creating sessions that support the different needs, abilities, and bodies in each class.
Our bodies can feel different from day to day, so these wholesome, friendly sessions are designed to meet you where you are. Expect mindful movement, a welcoming atmosphere, and Pilates that can be adapted to suit you.

While this warm weather continues (and as my usual venue is closed for maintenance), I will be holding two WILD Pilates sessions this week. Why not join me for a beautful eveing of moving in nature?

What is WILD Pilates?
Wild Pilates is a unique approach to movement and wellbeing that brings the principles of Pilates out of the studio and into natural, green spaces. Surrounded by fresh air, open skies, and the calming presence of nature, participants can experience a deeper connection between body and mind. Sessions are designed to improve strength, flexibility, posture, and balance while also reducing stress and enhancing mental clarity. By combining mindful movement with the restorative power of the outdoors, Wild Pilates offers a holistic way to support both physical fitness and emotional wellbeing, making each session feel both energising and grounding.

WILD Pilates this week:
Dates: Wednesday (5th August) and Thursday (6th August)
Time: 6.45-7.45pm.
Location: Westgate Lane Green, Lubenham.
Price: £10.00

Thank you Lubenham for a beautifully relaxing ‘Pilates in the Park’ this evening. The birds were singing, the breeze joined in and the whole experience was refreshing to say the least! I am looking forward to the next one!

If you would like to join me at the next WILD Pilates. Message me and I’ll add you to the announcement group.

It is important that your instructor (for any form of fitness) is qualified and vetted for the subject they are teaching. It isn't just about having knowledge from doing it, but having the knowledge to teach it safely and accurately.

At NewSkins, this is very important to us. There are lots of Pilates insturctors and studios appearing that do not have official, vetted qualifications, just a 'set amount' of hours learning. This can cause lots of issues for your safely and health.

At NewSkins, we use vetted educational programs and keep uptodate with the CIMPA regulatory board to ensure your safety and trust in myself and anyone who works with me.

As part of our values of promoting socialising, we do bi-annual socials at NewSkins Collective. Last year, I ran Pilates and Prosecco evenings, which worked better than expected. Therefore, I am offering this as an additional service for anyone wanting to host a fitness-style party.

It's been a while, but we are back with the next of our values: Being Social. It is important for our overall health to be in a community where you can find encouragement, support and a laugh. That applies to introverts and extroverts. At NewSkins, I try to create a space where you feel accepted and looked out for, either by myself and/or the others attending the sessions.
