Joe said this one year before he died at the age of 87.

Well luck him he started young – for us unfortunates who do have injuries and postural issues etc – thankfully Pilates  is keeping us together !

Never to early or too late to start – so lets get out there and knock on doors and inspire the young and not so young to get involved is this timless wonderful technique

Have a fanastic day

-Joseph Pilates, letter to clients, 1939

Good morning every one Happy Wednesday — have you managed to move this week ? 30 minutes of Pilates every day will not make you feel better, help with the activites of daily living (ADL’s) but will give you 30minutes to your self. where your mind can unwind and for that brief moment you will feel fully connected

So come on find some space and time and just a few flowing movements to open your joints, your muscles, your heart , your lungs and your mind …  get moving

Namaste to you all today

Joyce

But we had a great time as well, what a lovely group of ladies at our most recent Mat I II course. Now the hard work starts girls, so at least 1 hour per day practice between here and your exams

And remember dont be strangers any questions in the meantime come back immediately

Great to have met and worked with you all

Regards Joyce

Emma and myself had a great time working with you.

Our 3 phase approach with bio-mechanical knowledge will cover all sports and offer you a wider client base.

I hope your clients find all the new information about corrective flexibility and injury prevention utilizing the Pilates Method useful and effective

Good luck with it and look forward to seeing you all again soon

Regards Joyce

In our busy lives  and indeed the older we are getting while we still need to move for health we sometimes cannot face the hours of exercise we where once capable of.

Isn’t great that there is such a wonderful system like Pilates – this system with as little as 30 minutes per day will have such a positive effect on your posture, well-being and ease of movement.

So come on either in a class, personal training or indeed solo at home – get into Pilates – its never too late ! and I should know I am now a proud member of the over 50’s club !

Folks below is another inspirational quotation from the great man himself

have a great week everybody

Joyce

“Contrology (Pilates) is complete coordination of body, mind, and spirit. Through Contrology you first purposefully acquire complete control of your own body and then through proper repetition of its exercises you gradually and progressively acquire that natural rhythm and coordination associated with all your subconscious activities. “

Health and wellness from controled movements

A few well-designed movements, properly performed in a balanced sequence, are worth hours of doing sloppy calisthenics or forced contortion.

And WOW was it a super Saturday – guys I was in the Reformer Studio working away, and the laughter and groans (in equal measure I might add! ) coming from the Mat Work studio was incredible what on earth was Mathew doing to you !!!

Who would have thought you could have so much fun finding places for a Pilates Fit Circle and Fit Ball !!!

It was great to see you all and we look forward to seeing you again soon    Cheers Joyce
