I have spent the last week absorbing everything I possibly can in this incredible country. The sights, sounds, smells and tastes… and of course the abundance of yoga.

I’m coming home refreshed and ready to share all I have learnt both on and off the mat. I can’t wait to see you in class ♥️

🌟 Pilates 🌟

This is now my busiest class of the week… so much so I added another one! You can now get two doses of matwork Pilates with me and one with Eileen, each week.

Monday - 11.15 (with me)
Tuesday - 11.00 (with Eileen)
Wednesday - 9.45 (with me)

We lengthen, tone and mobilise the whole body helping us to leave feeling stronger, lighter and maybe even a little taller! All abilities welcome.

It’s £8 to drop in or included in membership. Take a look at the Yogalicious Online website for all the details and to book.

I’ve had an awesome week with my family, wandering the Rockies National Park in Colorado. The scenery was far more interesting than any yoga poses, but still, here I am, being a tree, in front of many more glorious trees around a beautiful and very frozen Lake Lilly.

THANK YOU to everyone who covered classes, and to my wonderful clients who had a week off. I’m back and I’m ready for you all. Gentle yoga this morning is the perfect start!!!

⭐️ Motion is Lotion ⭐️
Cheesy I know, but one of my wonderful clients says this to me every time I visit and it’s currently renting space in my head!

The client, a man in his mid 70s, turns up to our weekly 1:1 Pilates session full of tales of the activity he has done since I last saw him, always ending with the phrase ‘Motion is lotion’, normally in a jokey southern American drawl. I just love it. I love his zest for movement and his desire for healthy and happy activity in his daily life, his 1:1 session with me merely complementing and allowing him to continue his own regimen.

My own daily movement has been following a similar outlook recently and I’m so happy with how it makes me feel.
❤️ less structure
❤️ more intuition
❤️ less planning
❤️ more spontaneity
❤️ less familiarity
❤️ more unknown
Whilst I am a fan of consistency I am definitely starting to allow more space for any form of movement. Consistently moving in whichever way the day leads me. Reminding myself ‘motion is lotion’ with each new step I take.

So today, after 14yrs of living in Shropshire, I hiked myself up to the top of Rodney’s Pillar, enjoying every unplanned step. Something new to add to the armoury in my fight to live well for longer.

How are you moving your body today?

I’m turning 40 at the end of the month and to celebrate I’m spending July with Rob and our children, travelling in Thailand. Thank you to everyone who is covering classes, I know you will be busy and I’m so very grateful. See you all in August… the start of my next 40yrs I hope ❤️
