Mindful Movement with Becca

I’ve seen some newcomers to the page recently. 👋🏻 Hello and Welcome!

I’m glad you’ve decided to join our community! It’s so good to have you here.

If you ever have questions about me, my background, services or just want to chat, drop me a message. I check them 3 times a week and [email protected] emails daily ✨

As summer draws to a close, we’re settling back into our regular routine — and I’m really pleased to be welcoming Chair Circuits back to the timetable.

So, with September just around the corner, here’s a little refresh of my current Chair Community Classes in Peterborough.

These classes are all about helping you move well, stay strong and feel confident in your body.

You don’t need to be super fit, flexible or experienced. Everything can be adapted to suit you, and while we use the chair for support, that certainly doesn’t mean the classes are easy!

📍 SOUTHSIDE METHODIST CHURCH

TUESDAY
10:00am – Chair Fit
11:05am – Chair Yoga

THURSDAY
11:30am – Chair Circuits ✨ RETURNING FOR SEPTEMBER
12:30pm – Chair Yoga

Chair Circuits brings a little more strength and functional fitness into the week, using simple resistance exercises, balance work and everyday movement patterns to help keep us strong for the things we want and need to do outside of class.

📍 COPELAND BAPTIST CHURCH, SOUTH BRETTON

TUESDAY
1:00pm – Chair Fit

A friendly, upbeat class combining seated and supported standing exercise to work on strength, mobility, balance and cardiovascular fitness — with plenty of options so you can work at your own level.

Classes are friendly, relaxed and welcoming, with a lovely community around them. You’re always encouraged to listen to your own body and make the class work for you.

£7.50 per class when booked as a monthly block
£10 weekly drop-in

If you’ve been thinking about joining but haven’t quite taken that first step, September is a lovely time to start.

Come for the movement. Stay for the people. 💛

Join Becky on the green for hatha yoga this summer!

Her style of teaching blends the gentle breath linked asanas (poses) of hatha yoga into more of a vinyasa based class that encourages smooth fluid transitions rather than long static holds. It's a great way to build strength, flexibility, and inner calm.

Yoga promotes circulation, improves focus and brings people into a more relaxed nervous system so it's a great way to start a Sunday by inviting some restorative movement in.

Sunday 2nd August @ 10.00

Sunday 23rd August @ 10.00

Who’s joining me tomorrow for some outdoor yoga? 🧘🏻

This is my penultimate one of the season, last date is Sunday 6th September. (The classes will still run between those dates with the wonderful Rise and Shine team leading)

Looking forward to moving with you all and easing into our Sunday ☀️

I want to take a moment to acknowledge the Light Project Peterborough for their ongoing contributions to our community.
Last week, they dropped in on one of our group sessions, and it was great to see Lindsay engage directly with the class.

Their work in using local resources, like churches, to support older adults is truly valuable. It connects with my beliefs about making exercise accessible for everyone and ensuring that people can stay active and supported close to home. Thanks to the Light Project for your important contributions and the lovely write up in this weeks newsletter.

I love coming across stories like this, people who are redefining aging and diagnoses. Whilst I don’t know Bill, I am lucky enough to meet so many great people in my line of work just like him.

In our chair community we have 3 women in their early 90’s all still practicing yoga and doing a wonderful job of it.

In my work at the Sports Centre I’ve met clients who have defined the odds against numerous long term conditions and one thing I’ve learned from them all is that mindset plays such a pivotal role.

When we stop seeing fitness as a purely physical activity and work on mental resilience and challenge limiting beliefs, incredible things can happen. 🫶

Huge respect to Bill 🙌🏻✨

98-year-old Bill from Woodbridge does at least 40 press-ups every day without fail - 20 in the morning and another 20 in the evening. He recently celebrated his 98th birthday and said he was hopeful he would still be doing his press-ups when he hits 100. "The key to long life is getting good genes," he said. "I've had good genes passed down to me, and obviously they're working well." 📲 Tap the link in bio to learn more about super-sprightly Bill's workout routine 💪

Thank you to everyone who attended today’s new class at Copeland. 🫶✨
