Happy New Year folks!
Don't know about you but I’m gently opting out of frantic resolutions and “new year, new you” energy.
The last couple of weeks have been a reminder of that in an unexpected way. After 2.5 weeks of waste water flooding in the studio, it turns out the cause was a narrowing cast iron pipe. A bit like a sclerotic artery: things age, systems stiffen, flow reduces.
Without attention and movement, function quietly declines. Our bodies aren’t so different.
What I do care about for me is starting the year feeling more at ease in my body: a bit stronger, a bit clearer, and more confident about how I move. Do you feel the same?
If so, from mid-January, I’ll be running a small Beginners Pilates: Foundations series on Sunday mornings at Renfrew Wellness Hub PA4 8PQ.
This series is for you if:
– you’re curious about Pilates but want to understand it properly
– you’ve been to classes before and felt slightly lost (and wondered if it was just you, it wasn't by the way)
– you want to build strength without rushing, forcing, or hurting yourself
– you appreciate calm, clear, physio-led teaching.
I’ve been teaching movement for over 15 years, trained through Polestar Pilates, and I’ve worked with thousands of different bodies in Pilates and Yoga studios, wellness clinics, and classes, both here and far further afield.
This foundation series will help you build solid foundations so that Mat-based Pilates makes sense in your body and your mind.
More details in the next few days.
For now? May your 2026 begin grounded with long slow exhales.
Remind yourself. > You are not broken.
Your body doesn’t need fixing.
Your body just needs moving: kindly, consistently; so that it can keep being itself to support you.
Movement is medicine.
Prescribed with care.
Love, Megan
