New Year, New Me?

January arrives and, after plenty of good food and drink, many of us feel ready to get back on track. Maybe you want to shake off that sluggish feeling, or maybe this is the year you finally do something you’ve never done before.

Sound familiar?
If so, it sounds like you’re ready to take action 💪

The first step is setting a goal – and setting it well. Here are a few tips to help:

Tip 1: Make it attainable
Thinking big is great, but your goal needs to fit into real life. Make sure the training or commitment works around family, work and everything else you have going on.

We’re actually big fans of thinking small (sounds strange, we know!). A simple, sustainable habit can be life-changing. Something like a 30-minute walk every day may not be a marathon, but it’s a habit you can keep for life — and that’s where real change happens.

Tip 2: Give yourself time
Very rarely does everything go perfectly. Build in some flexibility and allow for a few bumps in the road when setting your timeline.

Tip 3: Break it down
Set mini-milestones along the way. Small wins add up, and ticking them off as the weeks go by keeps motivation high.

Tip 4: Plan for obstacles
What stopped you reaching your goals before? Write down what you’ll do when things don’t go to plan.
For example: If I get injured, I’ll see a physio and get back on track.

So there you have it — set the goal, plan for real life, and take that first step.

Here’s to achieving your goals and making 2026 a healthier, happier you ✨

Last remaining spaces in our beginner Physio Led Pilates Class and our Physio Led Male Only Fitness Class.

Some points to note:
Beginner level pilates is perfect for those returning from injury or those wanting to start into pilates but at an easy level.

Our Male Only Fitness Class is a relatively new class. We felt that men over the age of 50 have very little options to choose from when it comes to getting into some exercise. The class is a great way to start doing some basic weight and cardio training in a safe and controlled environment.

Take a look at our class schedule and see if something suits 🗓️

Some more spaces will become available as new blocks are starting in November.

A little seasonal reminder for all of us!

As the evenings get darker and the temperature drops, it's the perfect time to think about a few small, proactive steps to stay well through the winter. Here are two key things that come to our attention every year:

1. Keep Moving, Don't Start from Scratch in Spring! 🏃‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Every March and April, we see a spike in injuries from people who dive back into gardening and outdoor activities after a sedentary winter. The common cause? Our bodies have deconditioned.

The Solution: Consider joining a class to stay motivated—Yoga, Pilates, circuit training, or Zumba are all great options. Signing up and committing is half the battle!

2. Support Your Body with Vitamin D ☀️

With our precious sunshine in short supply, it's not uncommon to feel increased fatigue or low mood. This is where Vitamin D comes in.

Why it Matters: Supplementing with Vitamin D can help combat that seasonal slump. Crucially, it also plays a vital role in supporting our immune system, helping to decrease our chances of picking up those common winter colds and flus.

A little preparation now can make a big difference to your winter wellness. Stay active and stay well!
