Just finished a week of Pilates classes featuring the magic circle, although class members have happily renamed it anything from 'the circle of torture' to 'the hoop of hell'... 😆

Yes, the magic circle does add challenge (although it can be surprisingly helpful in other moves) but what I love about this piece of small equipment is how it allows you complete control of how hard you want to work. Through the exact same pattern of movement, the magic circle will allow everyone, whether you are 25 or 75, to find their appropriate edge.

Well done to everyone who took hold of their magic circles this week with a smile/grimace on their face and got stuck in - you are all stars...🌟💛 👏

P.S. And just a little mention for all those Pilates instructors out there who have done these classes multiple times this week. Feel the burn and do it anyway! 🤣

I’ve had to slow myself down this past week.

A minor injury has meant pulling back to where my body feels comfortable and supported — and for me, that’s Pilates and walking. 🌿

Pushing ourselves and training hard has its benefits, don’t get me wrong. But you can also achieve a lot through regular, lower-intensity movement.

Sometimes the key isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about listening to your body, finding what feels right for you, and being consistent.

If you’re looking for a way to move that can be both supportive and challenging, Pilates might be just what you’re looking for.

If you’d like to try a free taster class, email me at [email protected] and let me know which class you’d like to attend:

*Tuesday* — 9am or 6pm, Raglan
*Wednesday* — 9am, Raglan or 11am, Abergavenny
*Thursday* — 9am, Abergavenny or 6pm, Raglan

I’d love to welcome you to the mat.

P.S - Hope you enjoy the no filter sunset picture I took last week...

Taking an afternoon for myself after another fabulous massage from the lovely Lily Sequoia. 💛

Rest is such an important part of looking after ourselves, yet it’s something we can often feel guilty about.

Yes, our bodies need exercise, but they also need recovery. And sometimes looking after ourselves means doing something simply because we enjoy it — or doing nothing at all.

Give yourself permission to pause, without feeling that you ought to be productive.

Be a human being, not a human doing. 🌿

Happy Friday everyone 💛🌿

What a lovely view from Crawley Hall this morning! So calming to see the horses and sheep grazing while we get ready for our Pilates class. This is Pilates, Monmouthshire style! 😂💛🐴🌿🐑

I love teaching Pilates in the Dance Blast studio! It is such a calm and comfortable space. It reminds me of being in the drama studio as an A-level student. There was something about all that black that made me feel like the world had paused and I was in a little bubble, away from everything else.

Each week, class members walk in carrying the joys and sorrows of what has happened to them that day, week, month or year. I hope my classes can provide a space where everyone can take some time for themselves – not just to move and feel better in their bodies, but to pause, breathe, switch off from whatever else is going on and leave feeling a little calmer and a little clearer.

If you would like to try a free taster Pilates class with me, send me an email at [email protected]

I’ll hold a space for you.

Research has found that working out in a group setting brings a wealth of social and emotional benefits beyond just the physical. And, if you're having fun and feel like part of something, it's easier to keep going - and continuity is one of the key factors in staying fit and healthy.

If you are interested in trying a free taster Pilates class with me (Amy), email [email protected] and reserve your space today 💛

I don't always feel motivated to go running, but I never regret it once I'm out. Especially when I'm rewarded with an early morning sunrise like this one.

I used to take my body for granted and, if I'm honest, some days I probably still do. But as some of the things I took for granted in my youth begin to change, I'm reminded that I can't take my health and fitness for granted either.

My body needs me to make choices that support it, so that it can continue to allow me to live my life the way I want to — moving with strength and fluidity.

So today, I'm grateful to myself for making the choice to step outside and move. And I'm grateful to be well enough to experience the world, to move through it, and to see something beautiful along the way.

I hope you find something, however small it might seem, to feel grateful for today. 💛🌿
