How to get on and off the reformer!!
🎥 Step 1: Get on the reformer.
🎥 Step 2: Try to look graceful doing it.
🎥 Step 3: Accept that the reformer usually wins. 😅

It may sound silly, but this can seriously be the hardest part of class!
We promise — once you’ve nailed your mount and dismount, you’re basically a pro 💪✨

Come a few minutes early and say hi — she’d love to see you! 🧡

What do our instructors do between classes? 🤔Here's a couple of ideas!

Which one would you choose?

🚨 Travel Update for Sunday’s 9.30am class 🚨

This Sunday, the Chester Marathon is taking place, which means some roads around Chester will be closed in the morning.

✅ If you’re heading to our Dodleston studio, please allow a little extra travel time
✅ please check map for road closures, A483 remains open as does Lache lane!
Don’t worry — you’ll still be able to reach us! Just plan a few extra minutes so you arrive relaxed, ready to stretch, and flow. 💪✨

✨ And of course, a big GOOD LUCK to all the amazing runners taking part in the Chester Marathon this weekend — we’ll be cheering you on! 👏🎉

🚫✨ Reformer Do’s & Don’ts ✨✅

There are a few golden rules to keep you safe (and make your session more effective!) — like stepping on the platform first, moving with control, and not letting your shoulders creep up to your ears.

And honestly… this is just the start! We haven’t even touched on the importance of breathing, pelvis placement, ribs, and alllll the other juicy details that make Pilates such a mindful practice.

Moral of the story? Slow it down when you need to, focus on form, and remember: it’s not about being fast — it’s about being connected. 💪🧘‍♀️

Tonight we used the thera bands to add in a little strength work, especially for our upper bodies. How fab does the hall look with the VE bunting! No, I’ve not shrank, that’s my ‘mini me’ joining in with the warm up. Nice for her to see what we get up to but she was disappointed no back walkovers!
