Pilates festivities and a successful charity event

Festive Pilates shenanigans  

My official last pilates class of the term was last Friday 16th December. Of course it was obligatory to bring along bucks fizz and mince pies to enjoy after the class, always nice to close off the end of a year of classes with very special clients.  

When your class members take you literally...

As a surprise one of my class members, the lovely Laura Caldwell, bought along some Prosecco, not necessarily for drinking I might add but to prove to me that she could balance a tray of Prosecco on her back whilst performing a quadruped Pilates exercise, an analogy I have used in the past to encourage the correct technique (need to take more care with these in future). Well as you can see by the below pics, Laura was very successful and kindly shared the Prosecco with us after. My class members ended up rather jolly for 2:30pm on a Friday afternoon the school run later was a fun one!😉

Charity event

Tuesday 20th was our Christmas Charity Class for The Maypole Project. I was so pleased to support this wonderful cause and wanted to say thank you so much all who attended and donated. Your generosity helped us to raise £172!  Simply a Pilates class followed by coffee, mince pies and a raffle. I have to say it was an amazing feeling to drop in to the project and be welcomed by my step daughter Hannah and hand over the cash. I hope to do something like this again at the end of next term.

Thank you so much everyone for all your support this year attending classes and 1-1s. I truly love my job and know how lucky I am to be surrounded by such lovely people on a daily basis.

Well all that is left to say is.......

Merry Christmas and a Very Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year!

Looking forward to seeing you all back on the mats in 2017
