NEWSLETTER – October

STUDIO UPDATE After attending the PAA Pilates Conference in September I have tapped into Pilates repertoire I had forgotten about. All terribly exciting for me.  The workshops and lectures I attended were full of information and I loved it.  They included Feet, Neck and Shoulder, Osteoporosis, working with Male clients, business, and Mat, Wundar Chair, Cadillac workouts. 1.     My daughter Chelsea has started working one day a week with me – oh hallelujah.  She is assisting with business administration and a real blessing.  You may see her at the Studio on Thursday’s. 2.     Florina is settling in well on Wednesday mornings.  She took me through a Reformer workout last week.  I almost sounded like a client… quietly groaning while been worked through my paces.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to my next workout.
