A little outdoor pilates today ….

16/07/2025

3 years ago I started on a mission..

To design a pilates class that was accessible to all.

I opened a class in St Peter’s Church Hall in October 2022.

We started working on chairs.

Now, today, we did this!

They no longer work with chairs 🪑

(However, if anyone comes along needing a chair then they will still be welcome and adaptations made for them).

Super proud of them all….

Morning all,

I’ve been chatting with friends and class members recently about breakfast 🥞 .

One problem that ladies (maybe men too) seem to have is getting enough protein in.

This is my go to breakfast:

Oat based pancake. 🥞

Protein ✔️
Carbs ✔️
Good fats ✔️
Berries ✔️

I’ve started batch cooking these in a silicone tray.

I then heat up in the microwave (also delicious cold) top with 0% fat Greek yogurt (preferably to Greek style - more protein).

Top with berries or seeds of choice - as you can see 👁️ I’m taking advantage of the summer berry 🫐🍓 season.

I do sweeten 🍯 a little.

Sweetener choices:

Agave Nectar (my fave)
Maple syrup
Honey
(Be careful to only use a little 😁)

Enjoy 😊

Give me a 👍 if you fancy the recipe.

I’m very lucky to have a wonderful job.

Yesterday, both classes that I run at Pontardawe Leisure Centre went for a lovely meal, (we have our Christmas party in January).

I was overwhelmed by their kindness. Especially the wonderful poem penned by Carolyn.

Thank you all of you ❤️❤️

Let’s talk Bone 🦴 Health 🩻:

🤔 Did you know ❓❓

🤔 Women are more at risk of loss of bone density after the age of 50.

❓How can we help prevent it ❓

🏋️ Weight bearing exercise is essential.

❓ Did you know ❓

🧘‍♀️ Pilates is a weight bearing exercise.

🧘‍♂️Our own body weight is used to strengthen our muscles 💪🏻 and bones 🦴 .

Using resistance bands we add intensity

What else should we do? 🤔

Work Balance ⚖️ and Flexibility, key elements to helping prevent trips and falls.

🙋🏽‍♂️🙋🏼‍♂️🙋‍♂️ ❓What about Men❓ 🙋‍♂️🙋🏼‍♂️🙋🏽‍♂️

Yes, of course Men need to look after their bodies too and also need to strengthen through weight bearing exercise.

In one of my pilates classes you will improve your balance, flexibility, strength and your core strength.

So…. Why not Start 🏁 Now❓❓

I have limited spaces available in my class in Newton Village Hall (St Peter’s Hall, St Peter’s Church) DM me for further info.

Strength is the key to a strong life!

Oh…. One 1️⃣ last thing… It’s NEVER too early or too late to start.

Exercise, including lifting weights if possible, and eating foods with calcium and Vitamin D can help.
