Had a lovely Christmas morning workout yesterday! Set me up for a day of SOOO much yummy food. I hope you’re all having a lovely Christmas so far 🙏🏼❤️

Hi all I’ve mentioned to a lot of you about doing a December stretch/relax mind and body class (I’ve so missed them!)

It will include some Yoga/stretching/breathing exercises and relaxation with lavender bags, blankets, pillows, props etc and candles. I usually do these for 1.5 hours.

I’m just trying to gauge numbers so I know what size room to hire (I’ll keep it as local as possible) so if you’re definitely interested let me know and also let me know what dates you can/can’t do I’m thinking it’ll be in the week before Christmas so anytime from the 15th to the 22nd - I can do evenings including the Friday and anytime that weekend if we all need a Sat/Sunday chill session I don’t mind at all. If you can let me know in the next few days I can get a venue booked in.

Enjoy your Sunday night xx

I have 1-1 and duet availability next week for those wanting them, wanting extra, missing group classes during the summer and the 1-1’s are ESPECIALLY good for those who want to start with me in September to get a good idea of what we do in class and for us to get to know each other first: just gives you a really strong place to jump off from come September.

I have a few options/packages for new starters that is available so if you’re interested in that drop me a message and let’s get you started! 👍🏼💪🏼

Availability:
Monday morning 8am/9/10
Wednesday lunchtime
Thursday morning

For other times please enquire 07894907313

Hi all I hope you week is going beautifully 🙏🏼
After such a lovely response to the gala event I’m launching 🚀 2 new group classes for June 👏🏻👏🏻 these were the most asked for times (so far! I’ve actually yet to get everyone’s responses back so more classes will be added later I’m sure) I’m so glad that I asked what you all wanted from your local community classes as I would never had thought a 2-3pm would be popular but here we are!
So, new group Pilates Mat classes are:
Monday 2-3pm
Wednesday 6-7pm

If the time you want isn’t there then email me! I’m no mind reader 🔮 😂 - although I can always tell if my husband has smuggled chocolate in to the house 😉 I also really wanted to provide a morning class and a later one so if these suit then shout.

I’m so looking forward to it now what a great summer it’ll be 💙🌞



Email me to book on or visit my website www.simplylovepilates.uk

Check your email if you popped your name down at the gala!!

Hi all - for those who met me at the gala last week (and anyone who is interested in starting up with me) I have sent out an email but I had loads of bounce backs/undelivered noticed and those that did go apparently landed in junk/spam! 🤦🏼‍♀️ typical! SO, if you’re still interested then message me and we’ll try again with the email!! Free tasters are this Wednesday night and this Friday morning I can do more if those times don’t suit. 🙏🏼 💙 you can message here on email me at [email protected]

I’d love to see you there!

I’m calling it!!

Its Spring!! 🌸🌺🌷☘️🌱🌞 get the flip flops out! (Thongs to my antipodean friends/family! 🩴) and it’s the first really warm day we’ve had this year which I LOVE 💗

so, after my daily walk (I’m trying so hard to build in some small healthy daily habits and this walk was longer than my usual as I have Friday afternoons off) I accidentally found myself in the summer beer garden at the pub 🥴 which is just a 30 second walk from my house. Life is about balance right?! 😆

I honestly love living in a small rural village, the beer garden is full and humming with the local villagers enjoying the sunshine and chatting with each other so I’m posting the obligatory ‘here’s my wine in the sunshine’ pic to temp you all into finishing work early and start your weekend asap!!

Whatever you do this weekend I hope you have a lovely one - enjoy ♥️😎

Lovely locals- I’m looking at the local gala/fate/shows throughout the spring and summer does anyone know if the following areas have them?

-Flockton
-Emely (not the big one just a village one)
-Grange moor
-Ossett
-Lepton
-Bretton

Also interested in any stalls at local school events/galas etc

I know about horbury show and Overton gala any info and contact info gratefully received 🙏🏼

Did I get an overwhelming urge to Pilates when out on my daily walk today?! Yes. Yes I did. 🤪😆🙈
I’m just so happy that the sun is shining honestly it’s like I’ve popped out of my hibernation cave and am full of the joys of spring when I feel that sunshine.
This is a rocky, dirty field on a slope near my house that I walk through everyday on my lunchtime walk - but I don’t care! Pilates anywhere I say!! 🤣🤣
Does anyone else do a daily walk? I’d love to see where you all go in whatever part of the world you’re in 🙏🏼

My favourite discovery during lockdown zoom Pilates was this little beauty- a tea towel!! Who knew that innocent bit of cloth could be sooo good (cruel!) in a Pilates Mat workout?!! I didn’t and I have to thank (as always she is so gracious with her deep knowledge of Pilates 🙏🏼🙏🏼) for this one.
I still use it a lot in my self practice- I’m hyper mobile (more about that later) so for me I find it so helpful to ‘contain’ my movements, put me in the correct place and therefore deepen the work in my body. It’s a gem for me honestly!
I now have a class dedicated to its wonderfulness in my on-demand library so that I too can pass on it’s brilliance!

Practicing Pilates in a studio means a ZIP FREE ZONE! 🤣 (also jewellery, sharp false nails and buttons) it’s just honestly an upholstery nightmare 🙈

So, there’s been a lot of talk lately (maybe nagging/reminding, from me to my lovely poor regulars) about what leggings to wear to practice in.

Now obviously you should wear what fits and feels fabulous for you but I’m happy to say I’ve found some new favourites; crazy fun bright patterned leggings and they really cheer me up everyday!

Today I wore these with pink flamingos 🦩 and palm trees 🌴 on them 😍 bliss for this summer beach lover! ♥️ I can highly recommend they feel so soft, comfortable and don’t go see through when you bend over 😆 🙌🏼
Thanks

thanks for the live it was so nice to pop on to my Mat at the end of my day (6pm UK 🇬🇧 time) and move a little 🙏🏼

Next block of in person classes starts tomorrow at 6pm and I have 2 spaces available 🙌🏼 email me if you’re interested: [email protected] I’d love to see you there!
This term is all about the Pilates Barrel 🥰

Hello lovelies- I’m happy to say that I can offer 2 Mat spaces on my next block of classes if anyone locally would like to come and join us? It’s a 5 week course starting THIS Thursday in Overton (near Middlestown) please comment or email me 👍🏼

Simply Love Pilates West Yorkshire updated their address.

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL! Are you planning to get your Pilates on in 2022?! Here's a little update xx

Happy New Year! I hope you’re all enjoying your Christmas break and are ready for a New Year’s Eve celebration drink, or two, or three after this year!! I’m typing this with a G&T ready and waiting!

Hi all - soooo, I have the dreaded Covid 😫🤦🏼‍♀️ I’ve managed to avoid it all this time and even though I’ve honestly barely been anywhere or seen anyone I somehow caught it in the last week 🤷🏼‍♀️ so if I don’t respond over the next few days/this week I’m not ignoring you I’m just too busy coughing, sneezing, using all of the tissues up in Yorkshire and sleeping atm!! 🤣

Ive tried to contact everyone but I’m a bit fuzzy headed so apologies if I missed you.

Online class will be back on zoom Thursday 6pm as soon as I’m up to it and then in person will hopefully resume from November - maybe earlier 🤞🏼
