ALLY TAYLOR

“I stumbled into fitness after completing my Dance and English Literature degree, unsure of my next steps. My mum suggested I take a course and work at a gym while figuring things out. I did a fitness diploma including gym instructor, personal training and exercise to music! My first class I ever taught was Legs, Bums, and Tums.

Since then, I’ve completed over 50 courses, including advanced personal trainer qualification, many class certifications, a Level 4 in Low Back Pain, and I’m qualified in GP referrals and pre/post-natal fitness.

Over 23 years, I’ve progressed from gym instructor and equipment cleaner to personal trainer, class instructor, studio manager at three health clubs, tutor, assessor, presenter, and national trainer for FitPro, MOSSA, and PTA Global. Now, I’m a studio owner (and cleaner again!).

Fitness is more than a job for me; I love seeing how exercise improves people’s lives physically, mentally, and emotionally, and the sense of community it builds.

On a personal level I have struggled with anxiety at various points in my life, at times crippling - I know you wouldn’t think it when you interact with me or see me up on a stage or in front of a room! Exercise helps me manage it when im having a flare up and I try and move my body in some way most days! “

💕 NEW 💕

🎊 MEMBER OF THE MONTH 🎊

Something new for us as we launch our monthly newsletter! We will be bragging about one of our fabulous members each month and what they are achieving here at Amovida!

🎉 CLAIRE SMITH 🎉

WHY ❓

Claire is about to be our first member to hit 100 classes!!! Claire embraces every class with joy and fun and will try everything at least once! Her technique has come on leaps and bounds and you can see all her effort paying off!!!
WELL DONE Claire, we’re so proud of you!

LETS GET TO KNOW THE WOMAN OF THE HOUR ❗️

AMOVIDA: ‘’ What made you join Amovida?’’
CLAIRE: ‘’I joined Amovida to improve my strength and flexibility and to help deal with my lower back and hip problems.’’

AMOVIDA: ‘’What do you feel you get out of it’’
CLAIRE:’’I get a huge amount of encouragement from Ally, Grant and other members which helps to maintain my motivation. I didn’t expect the Amovida to be such a sociable place. It has been fun to exercise alongside like minded people even when I don’t always get the moves right. We just laugh and try again.’’

AMOVIDA: ‘’What is your favourite class?’’
CLAIRE: ‘’My favourite class is probably Centergy. I like the pace and flow of the class, which is supported by the great music, and the progression of new routines. However, I also enjoy the Core and Move for Life sessions which get the heart rate up and the blood pumping. I am grateful for the air conditioning in the studio as safe to say I am glowing like a beacon by the end of those classes. Great job Ally and Grant: you have made me a gym convert.’’

After a great week with our Mossa USA friends at head office doing programme filming for the January routines, Ally is heading home with a package of special risers for our steps which will keep them in place when we ramp them for Group Core and Group Power! Look forward to being able to use them from next week peeps ! 😃

You’ll have to wait till January for this but it’ll be worth the wait!!

From Canada to Australia, England to New Zealand, and spanning 20+ states in the US, Centergy testers turned in high scores (9.7 for both programming and music) and shared these comments:

Maddie at Bay Club in Oregon said, "One participant mentioned that they were able to progress and challenge themselves more each time, because this release has allowed them to grow."

Kim at Healthtrax in Connecticut said, "The flow was everything for this release. The beginning of the class had its flow. The core had its own flow. And the restorative tracks had their flow. It was great "

And one last trip back to Oregon for Marie at Courthouse: "I know it must take so much time to find the songs that convey what each track delivers and you do it so well every time."

Scores are in for JAN25 3D30 and the new year will be loaded with high-scoring variety! Testers gave the workout's programming and music each a 9.6/10.

Rachel from Alive Health & Fitness said: "Packed a punch where needed and challenged coordination just the right amount."

And Grant, testing at Amovita, said: "Members commented how much they really enjoyed the variety across the workout, which left them feeling and moving better for doing it."

🏋🏻‍♀️Can’t get in 5 workouts a week? Do 3.

🚶🏻‍♀️Can’t hit 10k steps? Go for 7k.

⏱️Can’t workout for an hour? Do 30 mins.

😳 Stop worrying about what you can’t do.

😊 And start focusing on what you can.

Results are the sum of thousands of seemingly small actions taken consistently over months to years.

It’s doesn’t matter if you didn’t start in childhood… you can start now!

The stronger and fitter you are going into old age… the better your quality of life and potentially the longer you live… and live well doing the stuff you enjoy.

On that note…Did you know that the exercise guidelines have changed on Osteoporosis?

It’s now recommended to lift HEAVY weights and do IMPACT in a dosed and progressive way. Start small and build up both. No longer is the recommendation to back off and just do aqua, Pilates and yoga… in fact those modalities, as great as they, don’t help osteoporosis as they don’t create enough stimulus for the bones… only load and impact will do that. So don’t be afraid of moving your body, we are more robust than we have given ourselves credit for!

🚨 Bridging the gap between strengthspan and lifespan 💪

NEW 📄

1️⃣ Start strong - childhood 📈
2️⃣ Be strong - adulthood 🏋️‍♂️
3️⃣ Stay strong - old age ✅

⚠️ Advanced Warning ⚠️

UPDATE 25/4/25 ‼️

We have heard back from the planning team at Affinity.

“We would like to apologise for taking this long to get an answer for you. We have recently found out that the road will be closed by the Butchers on Ockham Road South, to carry out remedial work for the mains renewal that happened between October 2023 and February of this year. This has been scheduled under an emergency permit and will only be closed for 2 days. The diversion route that will be put in place will be the same one as when the initial works were going ahead. We apologise for any confusion this has caused.”

🤩 we are super excited for our new class to start tomorrow, with the lovely Caroline, who had put this together especially for us!

A mat based fusion of ballet, Pilates and yoga to help you feel longer, stronger and more graceful!

10.30am Monday
