Haunted Pilates

I’m not sure *where* I got the idea to do a themed night on Halloween . . .

My spooky get-up comprised of skeleton leggings (eBay) and the most AMAZING Sugar Skull makeup by one of my very talented clients Lisa Shaw we made a little movie to show her at work:

Next I needed a spooky Pilates playlist.  Whilst I could go for Ghostbusters and Thriller etc for my fitness class, this wouldn’t do for Pilates. I was stumped! But then I asked Facebook and they knew the answer, well, actually my neighbour suggested spookysoundtrack.com where I found lots of classical tracks that were perfect.

I didn’t film the Haunted Pilates, it was just too scary . . .  but here is the Spooky Step class I taught on the same evening:

Posture workout for you to do at home

Phil from Saddleworth Studios mentioned that he had some new kit he wanted to test out and if I needed anything filming  . . .  We made this short movie with Posture exercises you can do at home, give it a go and please do let me know how you find it.

We also made a movie about choosing the right mat for Pilates

Camel Stretch (and Camranger)

I loves a gadget, and a demo!  In this little film I show you how to do the Camel Stretch, great for hip flexors, your chest and a nice little bit of extension for the spine.  Also, for the Nerds, is a demo of Camranger a neat device that allows you wirelessly control your DSLR.

We are moving: new Stalybridge venue

We are saying goodbye to St George’s Church and send them warm thanks for offering us a nice refuge after the fire at Stalybride Labour Club.

Our new Monday morning venue will be Stalybridge Methodist Church, the room we have there is just perfect, a big thanks to class member Anne for hooking us up.
