One to one classical reformer pilates with Becky who owns Stourbridge Pilates Rooms. Lovely lady but there is no way on this planet that this torturous exercise can be described as a massage!!! The pain is real ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ฉ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

I still highly recommend her though ๐Ÿ˜‚

Just a reminder classes are on as normal this week and next (not that you needed reminding - where did you all come from yesterday??!)

Iโ€™ve added a Stretch and Relaxation evening to ease me gently into my week off on Wednesday 26th August, booking link below. Half of the spaces have already gone so if you want to come please reserve your space asap to avoid disappointment.

Bank holiday week commencing 31st August there will be NO classes as Iโ€™m taking a week off before it gets crazy in September with the run up to that word that happens in December that Iโ€™m not going to mention ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Thursday evening classes this week are at my studio and not Lapal again due to the caretaker being on holiday.

Have a wonderful day all, Iโ€™m sat enjoying a coffee after being put through my paces with the amazing Becky at Stourbridge Pilates Rooms. I donโ€™t think anyone can see my arm shaking as Iโ€™m lifting my coffee cup ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Classes today at my studio ๐Ÿ’—

Purely barre 6.30pm

Iโ€™m unable to tag him because heโ€™s only on instagram but I have just had an appointment with Dan Ripley who in the space of one session has dramatically changed how I feel both mentally and physically.

As most of you know I tore my bicep tendon back in November and then had a horrible fall on my shoulder only a few weeks after. I think I underestimated just how much damage I did to myself. Iโ€™ve been unable to move freely with my arms and painful shoulders, my neck has been a constant site of tension and my jaw has been locked with stress. I went to the dentist last week who said my teeth were not sitting together properly which I knew about every time I was eating and catching myself clenching my jaw.

Roll on today after my session with Dan Iโ€™m sat eating a sandwich and Iโ€™m able to chew properly. I feel lighter in my neck and shoulders and the stress from the pain has totally gone. I have some exercises that I need to do daily until my follow up appointment in three weeks but honestly if I can feel this good right now I canโ€™t wait to see how I feel by the next time I visit. He is amazing - I canโ€™t even tell you how he does it because it doesnโ€™t even make sense to me how such small adjustments can make such a huge difference ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

I am so determined to get myself back on track with my private sessions at Stourbridge Pilates Rooms and Dan. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel at last!

One to one session today with the amazing Becky who owns Stourbridge Pilates Rooms. Wow does she know her stuff ..!!! My shoulder is feeling great after being put through my paces on the reformer and the Cadillac. And then for a lovely surprise (!) we finished on the foot corrector .. Oh my goodness, I think I shook my way back to the car ๐Ÿ˜‚ This place is just amazing. Iโ€™ve achieved so much already in my recovery for my shoulder (oh and found out my feet also need a lot of TLC!) Highly recommended ..

Now for a coffee before teaching Barre and Callanetics ๐Ÿ˜‚ See you in a little while ..

With the temperature rising and peaking at 34 degrees I will be teaching Thursday evening classes at my studio and NOT Lapal Primary. If youโ€™re coming these classes will need to be booked due to the limited space. Everything else will be where it should be this week! Link for Thursday evening below. You can add your name to the wait list if itโ€™s full and please if you have to cancel give me as much notice as possible because your space can be filled. Have a great week all, see you on the other side ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿ˜‚
