Callanetics at MMfitness - Bishopbriggs CALLANETICS® body shaping. Controlled small pulses tighten and strengthen muscle groups, resulting Come and join the CALLANETICS® Community today!

CALLANETICS® was developed in the 70's as the brain child of a Callan Pinckney. She developed it as a self help method to alleviate injury and pain, after extensive travelling. As it was low impact, it immediately gained popularity and claimed to allow users to turn back the clock on their body. Essentially, you perform an increasing number of small controlled pulse like movements on major muscle groups in the body. Through this deep exercising of the muscle layers, they became leaner and tighter through contraction and stretching, which allowed users to gain a sleeker silhouette and hence look as they did 10 years previously. Today, the whole CALLANETICS® movement has developed and newer more advanced techniques are used. All moves are biomechanically assessed prior to use and tested through instructors to ensure they produce results. There are no barriers to participating in CALLANETICS® through the Mary Adams technique-neither age, gender or ability; only a will to improve your general well being, strength, confidence and physique.

Morning all, hope you are having a good September weekend so far? It was dry and busy in Millport with lots of organised activities. Great to see families enjoying sandcastle competitions and crab catching for the wee ones. All the local businesses had decorated their windows and lots of street entertainment. The finale of a fireworks display at night was just wonderful - though the ferry queues not so wonderful! Yesterday was really wet everywhere I think, so a day where I felt housework was the only option - yugh! Obviously our holiday girls are still having sunshine and Dee is having 3 weeks of it in Gran Canaria just now! Wishing Fiona C a very happy birthday today and Yvonne for tomorrow. Hope you both get spoiled girls! Set this week is back to weights, but remember they are always optional. Listen to your body and do what works for you. Studio times as normal until the October week when I will take a few days off from the Tuesday to the Friday. I'll remind you nearer the time. Well done to Lippy for giving herself another challenge and walking the first 23 miles of the WHW again. Fortunately it was dry this time around. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Morning all, been another quiet week in the studio. Lots of throat and chest lurgy around so look after yourselves. Tee struggling with her back pain and 3 of you down with throat and chest issues. Good to see Fiona R back in the studio this week, looking great and well on the way to recovery. Maggie in the zone and losing weight non stop - she has reached a stone and a half now after a difficult year of fractures and associated muscle damage. Well done Maggie! Poor Malaga suffering with a rather large extraction - we've all been there where you are only aware of what you perceive to be a gaping hole in your mouth. Hope it heals soon. Heldo off on holiday again again - to Morocco this time on an 11 day break and even on day 1 she has posted amazing images. Mike also away on holiday so won't be in the studio for the next two Mondays. Ash now using our studio and in due course will post his details. Lovely to see the studio being used more often. Salvatore will be here on Monday so let me know if you wish any supplies through a message please. We are open this September weekend should any of you not be away on a long weekend break. Think lots of you are, but I'll be here Monday should you manage down. Enjoy the break if you're away and look forward to seeing you all later next week.

Morning all, hope you had a good weekend. Birthday shout out this week for George tomorrow - wishing you a very happy day George. We're all moving into the bigger numbers now, but always a good excuse for a party if we hit a new decade! Think we'll be back to a full house for most of this week, now that our holiday makers are back. Mike is in the studio this morning after class and Ash is now going to be doing personal training in some of the gaps when the studio is free. Just keeping you all updated as you may see lights on at a time when you know there are no classes. The set this week is the small looped straps and more balance work. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Morning all, hope you're all doing well. Quiet start to the week but good to see many of you back mid week onwards. Anne K and Heldo enjoyed a day of extreme travel to Copenhagen this week, so they'll no doubt be exhausted this morning! Suzanne off on holiday and Carol Ann, Málaga and Mary V heading home. Jenny flew back from Canada on Tuesday morning and still made evening classes - what a girl! Happy birthday to Maggie this weekend - hope you have a great day Maggie. Lippy has managed to book a few of us a court for Padel this afternoon, following on from our first experience in Jersey. I have a feeling she'll be disappointed in our performance but it should be good fun and a bit different from our usual workouts. Well done to those of you who are improving with our balance exercises - we need to work a bit more on it though. Smiling at the posts on the Bishopbriggs page about both the traffic control causing huge grid lock areas and the large speed humps - putting many of us over the edge of sanity, while questioning where on earth they get their ideas! Maggie tells me Bearsden is the same. Walking to walk is preferable to this nonsense! Anyway, hope you all have a traffic and stress free weekend with family and friends. Keep that focus!

Morning all, weekend weather a bit better than predicted, so with our grandson managed Callander again and some good walks. Happy holidays to Anne K, Carole Ann and Heldo this week. Enjoy your breaks girls and safe travels. A few of you back from holiday this week so looking forward to seeing you all and catching up on your lovely holiday snaps. Great to have Audrey join us on a morning walk this week - we walk at 6 on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday and a bit later at 6.30 Tuesday and Thursday. Mind and message to say you're joining us so we don't leave you behind! All classes as normal this week after messing you about a bit last week. Thinking of all of you who are under par just now and hoping life improves soon. Gillian soldering on with her issues, Tracy barely coping with her back pain and poor Fiona C is struggling to shift a cough that is keeping her company for way too long. Mike in today to see some of you for the first time and others for a top up as we say. See you all at the barre and keep that focus!

Morning all, bit wet yesterday wasn't it and the weekend looks damp too. Happy holidays to Malaga and Carol this week - your weather has to be better than ours. Happy birthday to June today and hoping your weather in Arran is being kind to you. Maggie hope Tilly got on ok at the vet? Our pets become like family members don't they and we worry when vets suggest further investigation. Been a quiet week as I've had to cancel a day and of course so many of you are on holiday. Hopefully next week we'll see more of each other. We'll continue with the weighted gloves and add in feet on the mirror for the core set . Thanks to all of you who look after the studio in my absence - appreciated. I'm still battling Scottish Power who seem to be supplying me weekly with a new account - very difficult company to deal with. Onwards and upwards. Good to see that more of you are using Mike on the Mondays he works from our studio. He has produced new leaflets with a clearer explanation of what he does, so hopefully that clarity will help our understanding of his work. Wishing you all a good weekend whatever you do and take a brolly with you when you head out! Keep that focus!

Morning all, hope you're all doing well. I had a lovely break wandering around Scotland and ate and drank way too much - the down side of relaxing! I think I'll find it hard getting back into a routine even although it was only a week off. I hear some of you had sad news of friends that have passed - sorry to hear this. I too had some bad news when in Aberdeen, a cousin of mine had passed on, so sadly I have to cancel some classes. The funeral is Wednesday morning in Kintore, so a long drive up and down. Fortunately, some of you are going to run the morning classes in my absence, but the 5.15 will need to be cancelled. Apologies for this. On a brighter note, our holiday makers to sunnier countries seem to be having a lovely break. Despite it only being September, both the mornings and the evenings are just a wee bit darker than I would like. Before we know it we'll be in gloves and hats, though can't complain as still warm albeit wet some days. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Hello there, it's the weekend and you all get peace and quiet from me for a week. Lovely to see so many of you in the studio this past week. Delighted to welcome Mhairi to our fold and good to see Kirstie again after joining us last week. Birthday shout out to Michelle for during the week and Marie for the weekend. I'm sure you both were/will be spoiled. Adele finally recovered from her birthday celebrations -naturally she's blaming the neighbours for an impromptu gathering! Happy holidays to many of you who are away next week and the following; Mary V off to Italy ( she'll come back with more new coats), Di to Fuerteventura -she'll come back beautifully tanned, June to Findhorn then Arran, Yvonne and the family to Portugal and Toni to Greece to top up that tan with her friends. I'm heading up north to visit family and chill for a week - no doubt the rain will follow me, but a change of scenery will be good. So keep the focus, keep up the walks and enjoy life - make sure there is laughter in every day!

Morning everyone, wasn't that a glorious weekend of weather? Bet you all did the usual - strip your beds, towels and grab everything you could possibly wash to get it outside to dry. Then of course the garden would beckon you. I did all of the above and am back at the studio for a rest. The Kirkintilloch Festival was on this weekend too and I was there with my grandson, trying out the games at the church adjacent to the noisy and very fast show rides. Made my stomach lurch to look at them! Birthday shout out this week for our Adele - hope you have a fantastic day and get spoiled! Well done to the weight loss girls - great focus planning your healthy meals while adding in some extra exercise. I am holiday next week, but feel free to use the studio as you wish. I'm not going abroad, but taking a bit of time to relax in our beautiful Scotland - fingers crossed it stays dry for some walking. Set this week is a classic one with no weights or toys. Weights are always optional and some of you like a set of light weights to do your core work. Finally, Mike is in the studio today, but like me, some of you are finding it difficult to log in - if in doubt just email him. See you all soon!

Morning all, been a tricky week with Scottish Power cutting off the power supply 3 times. An emergency team came out yesterday and replaced the meter. Hopefully we have full power from here on in. Congratulations to Donna this week on the birth of another grand daughter. Lovely to see the photos of these beautiful babies. Delighted to welcome Kirstie to our community. Thanks for choosing us and hope to see you soon. Pleased that June managed in to class for a catch up after her fall. Still uncomfortable, but wound improving slowly. A throat lurgy doing the rounds recently, so look after yourselves. Heldo back from Lisbon and Lippy off to Mallorca for a break now. It's a revolving door of holidays here. Best to catch the sun while you can, it's a long dreich winter in Glasgow.
Michael has asked me to attach a link so you can book appointments. It is
