New Thursday morning class

Priya TewLeave a Comment on New Thursday morning class

Due to a number of people asking I am happy to say I’ll be running a Thursday morning mixed ability pilates class, 9.55-10.40. This class will suit beginners as well as those with some previous pilates experience. As I only take 6 people per class the sessions will be tailored to you.

Cost £20 for 4 weeks or £5.50 per class.

I currently have 2 spaces left for June so let me know if you’d like to attend and I’ll help you get those core muscles working, toning and fat burning!

Spaces available in Post-Natal Pilates class

Due to a couple of mums moving on and moving away I now have a couple of spaces available on the post-natal class. This is a fun-filled fantastic class for mums who are looking to tone up and strengthen their core muscles after having babies. Pilates helped me tremendously both during my pregnancy and post-birth, it meant my core strength returned very quickly helping with all the lifting and fun of early motherhood 🙂

Babies come along to this class too, best suited to non-crawlers. We have our very own “Daddy daycare” to help look after babies, he does a fantastic job and being a Daddy is experienced at nappy changing, feeding, playing, singing, rocking and carrying babies! He has been seen lining up and rocking 4 car seats one after the other keeping all the babes asleep.

Let me know if you would like to try it out.

New Class Idea

So as well as Pilates I also teach/can teach aerobics, step aerobics, body conditioning and toning, spin and circuits. My favourite classes are Step and conditioning classes. Currently I teach Step twice a week, however thats going to be reduced to once a week due to it being holiday time. Now I always miss that second class when its not there, as not only do I enjoy teaching it, I also enjoy doing it! Which got me thinking, maybe I could put on a similar class in that time slot to fill the gap. Now my Pilates studio is tiny so if I ran it at home I could only take a handful of people 5-6 I think, but if there was enough demand I know a couple of decent halls to hire. Hmmm.

So here’s the question…anyone interested in a class on a Thursday and what type of class? I don’t currently have Steps (apart from one for me), but some of you may have them lying around at home or I could maybe try to borrow a couple. Alternatively I could run a body conditioning class using low impact aerobics moves, resistance bands and free weights. Anyone up for it?

Beginners Class on a Thursday

Priya TewLeave a Comment on Beginners Class on a Thursday

There will be a beginners class running on Thursdays 5.30-6.15pm in Bitterne Triangle from April 7th. Cost £20 for 4 weeks.

This class will be suitable if you have had no previous experience or if you have attended one of my beginner courses.

Limited spaces as these classes are kept small so each individual can get one to one instructor help with ensuring they are doing the exercises safely and effectively.

Please contact me if you would like to come along.

Pilates with Babes is going well

Priya TewLeave a Comment on Pilates with Babes is going well

Post Natal Pilates for mum and babies has now been running for 5 weeks. I’m loving these classes, its a bit loud, at times a bit chaotic, a bit messy but lots of fun and it means mums get a chance to do some exercise without needing to worry about a babysitter. James is there to help with babies and has been know to be surrounded by a sea of car seats, rocking them one after another! Today he was playing with a toddler with holding another babe and rocking a car seat…and they say men can’t multi-task!

So if you are having a baby or have recently had one and fancy it, please do get in touch. Its also a great place to meet mums and get some tips.

As for me, I teach the class with my baby in a sling on my front, it certainly makes Pilates a lot harder to do and is something I hadn’t expected to be doing.
