Today, while out walking in Gosford, I had the most heartwarming experience. I ran into two old friends, one Core Pilates client, and one Pendulum Physio client. Each encounter was greeted with a warm hug, creating a real feel-good moment that highlighted the beauty of women loving and supporting each other 💗

It's moments like these that remind me of the incredible connections we build and the genuine affection that blossoms from our shared journeys. My heart is so full from the joy and warmth of today.

Here’s to the power of friendship and the bonds we create together. 💕

Now’s the time to start, our summer classes start in July & British supplements have a sale on. Message me for the link 💗

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there! 🎉

Today, we want to celebrate the incredible fathers who support their families in so many ways. Whether you're a dad attending our Pilates classes or the one holding down the fort so your partner can find some time for self-care, your efforts do not go unnoticed.

We know how challenging it can be for our wonderful women clients to carve out time for Pilates, balancing dinner time, kids, and homework until you get home. Your support and understanding make it possible for them to enjoy a bit of "me time," and for that, we are truly grateful.

To all the dads, thank you for your strength, dedication, and love. We appreciate everything you do, both in and out of the studio.

Wishing you all a relaxing and joy-filled Father's Day!

Unexpected days off are the best! We decided to go for a drive and stumbled upon this beautiful place in Ballynahinch. We enjoyed coffee, lunch, and a lovely walk around the gardens before heading into Newcastle. It's the unplanned moments that often bring the most joy! 🌸🚗✨

Celebrating 22 wonderful years since our first date on 22 May 2002—what a perfect alignment of twos! ❤️

I could not do what I do without the support and encouragement from this man!

Yesterday morning I saw a TV advertisement on the latest trend in footwear: Sketchers' new Slip-Ins. Well, I’ve ranted about this none stop from yesterday!

These trainers promise the ultimate convenience with their hands-free design, allowing you to slip them on without bending down. While this might sound like a dream come true, I'm here to raise a red flag 🚩.

Our bodies are designed to move, stretch, and yes, bend! Regularly bending down to put on our shoes helps keep our spines flexible and our muscles engaged. By removing this simple daily movement, we risk becoming more sedentary and losing crucial mobility over time. It's essential to use our spines and maintain these small but important physical activities.

Let's not trade convenience for our health. Stay active, keep moving, and remember the importance of these everyday motions. Don't buy into this latest trend—literally! Let's make choices that support our long-term well-being. 💪✨

Good morning ☀️

🌷🐰 Happy Easter, Pilates clients! 🐣🌼

As we welcome in the Easter weekend, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for making this past week and the entire month of March truly wonderful.

Your dedication to your Pilates practice is truly inspiring, and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to guide you on your journey to strength, flexibility, and inner peace.

This week, we focused on slowing down our movements and embracing the power of stretching, allowing our bodies to find balance and harmony. And what better way to end each session than with a soothing guided meditation on gratitude?
Your openness to these practices fills my heart with joy, and I'm thankful for the positive energy you bring to our sessions.

As we celebrate Easter and all the blessings it brings, I want to wish you and your loved ones a peaceful and joy-filled holiday. May this time be a reminder of the beauty of new beginnings and the importance of gratitude in our lives.

Thank you for being a part of our Pilates community, and here's to many more uplifting moments together. Have a lovely Easter, filled with love, laughter, and happiness! 🌟 Carolyn x

Good morning, Pilates community ☀️

It's a rare Sunday morning for me – still lounging in bed at 10:15 am! 😴 Sometimes, even the most dedicated Pilates enthusiasts need a little extra rest and recharge time, am I right?

While Graham's off teeing up for his golf game since 8am, I've been enjoying the luxury of having the bed all to myself. 🛌

But now, my stomach is starting to remind me it's time to rise and shine because hunger waits for no one! 🍳 Time to fuel up and conquer the day ahead. Remember, self-care includes knowing when to hit pause and give your body the TLC it deserves. Happy Sunday, everyone! 💪✨

🌟✨ Finding Peace and Gratitude ✨🌟

Last night, at 10pm, I made a spontaneous decision that turned out to be incredibly meaningful. I felt a strong intuition in my heart that someone out there needed a little extra peace, quiet, and calmness. So, I decided to switch up our Pilates routine for this morning.

Instead of our usual routine, we embraced a slow stretch and release class followed by a Gratitude meditation. It was a beautiful experience, and it reminded me of something important: everyone is going through something. It's a gentle nudge to always be kind and understanding.

The Gratitude meditation holds a special place in my heart. It's a reminder that even in the midst of challenges, there's always something to be grateful for. It doesn't mean we're belittling our struggles; rather, it's about finding moments of joy and appreciation amidst the chaos.

Tonight, as we heard about Princess Kate's sad news, it serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life. Yet, even in moments of sadness, we can still find something to be grateful for.

Let's continue to spread kindness, empathy, and gratitude wherever we go. Together, we can navigate through life's ups and downs with grace and strength. 💖

🌟 Incredible Transformation 🌟

Eighteen months ago, a brave soul walked into my Pilates class, carrying the weight of fear, loneliness, and battling inner demons. She silently endured the hour-long session, leaving without a word exchanged. But week after week, she kept showing up, determined to overcome her struggles.

For a year, I respected her space, offering encouragement and support from afar. Slowly, her confidence began to blossom. I'll never forget the moment she found her voice, courageously speaking up in class to ask a question.

Now, after 18 months of dedication and perseverance, she's not just conquering every Pilates session but also embracing life in ways she never imagined. After a few physio sessions with Declan Pendulum Physio & Health Clinics to sort an old shoulder injury, now she’s hitting the gym with a personal trainer and embarking on a solo adventure, traveling 500 miles around Ireland.

My Pilates classes aren't just about physical exercise; they're about building a community, empowering individuals, and instilling the confidence to seize every opportunity that life presents.

Enjoy your travels & stay safe, I’m absolutely thrilled & so proud to be part of this incredible journey of transformation and the limitless possibilities that lie ahead! 🙌

Hi everyone!

February and March routines have truly put us to the test, haven't they? 💪 But guess what? YOU showed up, you embraced the challenge, and you gave it your all, 100%!

A big thank you to each and every one of you who rolled out your mats and joined me in our Pilates sessions.

Whether you nailed every move or had a few wobbles along the way, know that you're doing amazing! Every step you take towards your fitness goals, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction.
So here's to us, to our journey, and to the incredible progress we're making together! Let's keep showing up, keep challenging ourselves, and keep spreading love and positivity both on and off the mat. I'm so grateful to have you in my Pilates family! 💖

Fridays are the best! 🩷
