Pilates resumes in Rusper tomorrow!!
I am nearly full so don’t miss out.
Mon 11.30am-12.30pm 7/9/26
£9 per session.
Small classes of only 10 so booking early is essential. If you can’t make this class do check out my other classes in and about Horsham.

My aim is to help as many people as possible to stay stronger for longer, being able to carry out their every day lives moving freely and with confidence.

Having stronger bones, stronger muscles focusing especially on the core muscles to ensure that our backs stay safe and are strengthened as a result.

Improving your balance and flexibility and sending you off with a sense of well-being.

No experience is required, if you think of a ‘stretch and tone’ class but so, so much more!

Class numbers will be limited to 10 and they will get booked up quickly so booking in advance is recommended through Gymcatch.

I very much look forward to seeing some old and new faces at these classes.

Much love

This is all about the impacts of AI on our brains and ‘If we don’t use it we lose it’!

Our bodies are just the same. If we sit for too long our bodies become stiff, our joints tighten and our muscles and bones become weaker. WE ARE DESIGNED TO MOVE EVERYBODY.

So this bank holiday weekend, enjoy the time with family and friends but get moving.

What are you doing this weekend to get your mind and body active?

If you don’t know where to start, then a great way to get your body moving is Pilates. 🧘🏻‍♀️ Check out my classes in Broadbridge Heath, Colgate, Horsham, Rusper.

My classes are for all ages and abilities and I ensure that you work at the level that is just right for you.

I look forward to helping you getting your mind and body working again.

Much love

LIFT IT 🏋️‍♀️ and then GIFT IT 🥫

Horsham Matters – Food bank collection w/b 24/8/26

This week we will be doing weights classes all week, strength training is important as we age. I always say if you don’t have weights then you could use tin cans instead.

I would like to collect these cans and make a group donation to the Horsham District Foodbank at the end of the week.

See the attached photo of what they urgently need.

Let’s see as a group what a difference we can make for families across our region this summer.

If you would like to donate and can’t make a weights class please message me.

Much love

Thank you to those who came to this morning’s coffee morning at mine.

It gave us the chance to say goodbye to Melanie Giacomelli who is living her dream and moving up to Alston in Cumbria to take on a whole new venture with her husband and family.

Good luck Mel.

Happy Sussex Day to you all. What do you love about Sussex?

I wasn’t born in Sussex, but I am proud to call it home and to live near the ancient St Leonard’s Forest.

We are lucky enough to have a beautiful coastline as well as the rolling South Downs all on our doorstep.

Do you know what the birds are on the Sussex flag and their meaning?

They are martlets and they represent the historic ‘rapes’ regions of Sussex:

Chichester
Arundel
Bramber
Lewes
Pevensey
Hastings

We are doing the Romanian Dead Lift in classes this week as part of our weights sessions. See the subtle differences perfectly show in these examples. I think my Tuesday morning class nailed this today. 👏👏

STOP doing deadlifts wrong ❌ Know the difference between SDL, RDL & DL 👇🔥 1️⃣ SDL (Stiff Leg Deadlift) 👉 minimal knee bend, deeper stretch, targets hamstrings 2️⃣ RDL (Romanian Deadlift) 👉 slight knee bend, controlled tempo, glutes + hamstrings 3️⃣ DL (Deadlift) 👉 more knee bend, Quads + full body movement, strength focused Same movement… different targets. If you want: 🍑 Glutes → RDL 🔥 Hamstrings → SDL ⚡️ Quads → DL Train smart. Get results. Which one do you feel the most? 👇 #glutesworkout #hamstrings #quads #deadlift #fitbody

It must be my Pilates training…
When I saw this my first thought was President Trump has awful posture. I’ll send him the details of my classes for when he comes to Horsham. 😂😂
