Hello maternity leave 👋

I’ve now taught my last class for a little while 😢 I’ve sent my last email for a bit. I’m going to be taking a pause from social media as I retreat to my baby bubble and wait for this little one to join us land side.

To all my amazing clients, thank you for all your support these past 4/5 years, and especially during these past 10 months; I am so very fortunate to know each and every one of you 🙏

Thank you Valentine for introducing me to the world of hypnobirthing and a calmer state of mind amongst the crazy

Thank you for keeping me moving with all your fantastic Pregnancy Pilates and Physio

Thank you for all the brilliant prenatal yoga sessions 🧘‍♀️

Thank you for all the brilliant advice and yummy yoga

Thank you for your continued fantastic support and physio, what would I do without you!

Thank you for keeping my heavily pregnant bones well supported with your beautiful mats - I wish I’d found you sooner!!

With love, Aimée x

That’s a wrap on teaching for 2020!! 🍾 What a year this has been 🤯 Who would have thought this time last year how 2020 would turn out 😳

A huge bottom of my heart thank you 🙏🙏🙏 to all of my amazing clients who ventured online with me 9 months ago and have adapted so well to this new way of teaching. Seeing your smiling faces everyday and hearing your lovely feedback means the world to me. Thank you 🙏

For those of you who haven’t been able to join us online, here is my 12 Day of Christmas Pilates with Aimée style, I hope it will brighten your Friday evening 🌈

Whatever your Christmas looks like this year, may it be a good one, and may your 2021 be healthy and happy 🌞

Happy Christmas 🎄

Our last week of classes before the Christmas break 🎅 🎄

Under normal circumstances this would mean Christmas jumpers, dodgy Christmas music, Quality Streets, and my now traditional 12 Days of Christmas exercises 😆

Covid might have put a stop to the sweeties and music this year, but it can’t stop a festive outfit and The 12 Days of Christmas Pilates with Aimée style! 😆

It’s the start of a new week, a new month, and the sun made an appearance today! 🌞 Lockdown might be on the horizon for those of us in England, but rest assured I’m still here for you, teaching my Pilates classes online for those of you who’d like to keep moving and nurture your body during this strange time.

We must bend so that we don’t break.

Mental health can affect anyone at any time. No one is immune, and goodness knows this year has tested the strongest of minds.

Tomorrow is World Mental Health Awareness day. To protect my mental health I try to avoid social media at the weekend so I’m getting in early today with my top 5 tips for keeping a healthy mind:

🌴 Start with the basics: good nutrition, good sleep (sometimes easier said than done) and daily exercise
🌴 Get out in nature every day, come ☔️ or ☀️
🌴 Let go of worrying about the things I can’t control and focus on the things I can
🌴 Keep connected to loved ones
🌴 Breath work – try this one with me:

🧘‍♀️ Sit somewhere quiet and comfortable, with your back supported
🧘‍♀️ Place 1 hand on your heart and the other on your belly
🧘‍♀️ Bring your awareness to your breath and see if you can inhale deep in to your belly for 4-5 counts
🧘‍♀️ Gradually lengthen your exhale until you can breathe out for 8-10 counts
🧘‍♀️ Repeat for as long as you have the time
🧘‍♀️ If your mind drifts, acknowledge the thought and simply bring your awareness back to your breath

Doing this exercise for as little as 1 minute a day can have a significantly calming effect on your body and mind 👍

Give it a try and let me know how you get on.

What tips do you have for keeping a healthy mind?

If you’re in crisis right now please reach out to your GP or The Samaritans (freephone 116123). You are not alone, and remember, this too shall pass.

We’ve been working with weights (or tin cans!) in class this week. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly a 1lb weight can get so heavy when held under tension for a time. I love how these little weights can help us connect with our centres in exercises like rib cage closures, challenge us in half roll backs, and assist us in full roll backs. So versatile! 💖

Hello September 🍁 How I love this month ❤️ Warmth in the sun, nature’s bounty in the fields and garden, warming comfort food and log fires to look forward to 🔥

Having completed a Covid awareness course and a detailed risk assessment I have decided to keep my teaching online for now. If lockdown and/or the summer has got in the way of your Pilates practice, or you would like to start a new hobby this autumn you’d be very welcome in my warm and friendly online classes. Flexible payment options available. DM or contact [email protected] for more info and to book your place.

CPD looks rather different in 2020! 🤓

My back absolutely loves this pelvis and spine mobilisation sequence 💓💓💓 It’s great prep for Corkscrew too 🙌

8x Pelvic Clocks in each direction
8x Corkscrew Spine Curls, alternating the direction on each one

I then finish with a couple of normal Spine Curls to rebalance 🧘‍♀️
