When you can't go to the swimming pool, why not swim on your mat instead?!

This exercise helps to strengthen the back extensor muscles that get weak from bad posture and too much sitting. A ball under the sternum will help you get into to position easier :-)

Djokovic on somatic movement and breathing - wow!

The recovery is more important than working hard to stay in the present, because it is almost impossible to stay there all the time. It's about how quickly you can get back and for me it is breathing, conscious breathing, that helps.

"It is probably the one ingredient that I would pick out as being the most important."

Novak Djokovic is famous for his dedication and meticulous preparation, but he may let some of his strict routines slip as he tries to defend his Wimbledon title.

Do you find it difficult to stick to regular exercise?
Here are 4 tips to getting back to exercise:

1. Set realistic goals: Pushing yourself to exercise 5-7 times a week might result in you missing it all. So try a smaller goal to begin with - you can always increase it!

2. Schedule your workouts: Write it in your diary/calendar, just like you would an appointment.

3. Be patient: Don't worry if you miss out on a session. The most important thing is that you stay consistent and you keep going back to your favourite exercise!

4. Find a workout buddy: Setting goals with friends/family/colleagues will motivate you to turn up as you would not want to turn them down!

When on holiday, I take the opportunity to have a well-deserved rest. But there is always time for a cheeky Pilates, when I recharge my batteries and be ready to teach again - so that I can come back refreshed, with renewed ideas and energy for you when we meet for our next class. Can't wait!

I'm often asked about the 'right' age to do Pilates. I have taught teenagers and my eldest client was 87 years old!! The age is never an issue, because Pilates is for everyone. And I mean EVERYONE.

Here are two photos of my senior classes.
