Which was the most popular out of these three? Can you guess?
Our equipment order goes in today at 3pm, and the most popular that's been ordered so far surprised me.
If you're after anything make sure to get in touch with reception before 3pm.

Client with back pain sleeps 'like a baby' til 7am!
Receiving this email made me smile!
Have you ever woken up in pain or had trouble sleeping?
If your only response to aches and pains is popping pills you're missing out.
A client came in this week with a flare up. Her back was sore and causing discomfort at night when she was trying to sleep.
In that Pilates studio session:
- I listened to her describe what was going on
- I assessed her posture and joint restriction
- Felt her back muscles
- Assessed her movement
- Had a discussion about the causes and long term strategies to get rid of the issue so it stays away for good
Knowledge is very powerful when put to action.
Pilates taught well, is lethal on chronic pain when unleashed.
If you don't understand why your pain signals are being triggered in your brain you'll be forever chasing your tail.
Stuck in the chronic pain cycle so many people struggle to get out of.
Our Pilates program is amazing at helping you identify the causes of your pain signals. We offer many different progressions, regressions or modifications of movement where needed.
It's not a one size fits all approach.
It's the opposite.
It's not an overnight fix.
It's learning your patterns.
Movement, thoughts, behaviours.
Understanding what your body is trying to tell you when it produces pain and learning to settle your nervous system accordingly.
When you start listening to your pain and working to calm your nervous system, your pain disappears.
You know how to keep your body painfree.
You choose behaviours that respect your body instead of punish it.
You regain control.
It's a powerful thing, and I see it happen everyday in our studio.
Stop trying to get rid of your pain.
Start understanding why it's there in the first place.
When your body talks, listen.
Then get to work and start addressing its concerns.

We're back!
Aaaaand I've bought a new pack of cards π
Pilates cards that is.
The deck of cards is a bit of fun I'm introducing this year. Today's 5pm session pulled these ones π
Sometimes we have to work up to doing the exercise, sometimes we get a laugh and other times we realise we're more capable than we thought! πͺ
Watch out for them when you're at the studio this week.
Also goal setting for this year is whats on at the mo.
Check your inbox tomorrow for an autofill worksheet that helps you reflect on last year and gets you inspired for the year ahead!
Welcome back to the studio and I cant wait to see you next session! π
