We Flourish: Authentic Pilates

25/09/2026

Sometimes in Pilates you need the equipment to guide your body and your movement.

I'd argue that that is the essence of Pilates.

This is me (in the distance there) doing the teaser exercise on the Tower and then on the mat. I'll confess, the second version was wild, i do usually have more control on that. Honest :-)

Have you tried the teaser on the tower and the mat, which one worked best for you?

Class changover at can lead to some marvellous connections. Today yoga teacher Maxine and I had one of our in between classes chats, which lead to me doing a bit of yoga with her in the studio.

It's always so lovely to be in well trained hands.

I need more yoga in my life.

How about you?

I really enjoyed having these two lovely ladies who have been coming to my reformer classes at for a few months, in the Sunday morning mat class.

Joseph Pilates created exercises to execute on the mat and the reformer, so it was no surprise that they felt the similarities.

In the end, the reformer was easier or I'd just given them a really good workout on the mat ;-)

Which do you find more challenging?

In a beginner-friendly class, we focus on:
• Gently releasing tension so your body feels looser
• Improving posture and movement (especially for desk-based work)
• Building strength in a way that actually feels good, not exhausting

I’m running a free beginner Pilates taster class in Whetstone:
Monday 20 April 6:30–7:30pm, Peak Performance - High Road Whetstone

If you’ve been meaning to do something for your body but didn’t know where to start, this is a really easy way in.

Hello Barnet neighbours,

I’m hosting a charity mat Pilates class and would love to see some local faces there.
The class will be completely beginner-friendly, so yes, it’s perfect for you, even if you've never tried Pilates before.
Money raised will go to Barnet Foodbank, which does such important work supporting people in our community.

- Wednesday 25 March 2026  £12.35 per person -

It's a lovely way to try something new, look after yourself, and give something back to the local area — all in one go. I'd love to fill the room with friendly Barnet faces.
