Hello ,

Why not join me on Saturday 15th October for a Pilates Master Class? This will be at 9.30am and at Rosebery Street Medical Centre.

It will be an hour of flowing Pilates — ABSOLUTELY not suitable for beginners to Pilates or to those who require modifications in our regular classes, as I will be teaching the Joseph Pilates full 34 exercises. This is a true Pilates Master Class.

The class is limited to the first 15 people who apply and it will be totally free of charge to clients who currently attend classes or sessions. All you have to do is register your name by emailing me at jane@janethomaspilates.co.uk — it would be lovely to see you. Only the first 15 suitable email applications I receive on this email address will get a space.

Have a good week everyone — remember to look, move and feel great.

Charity Event
I love working with other instructors in the local area and one such is Mairi Taylor of FABfitness based in Barrow.

Mairi has been attending our micro-group Pilates Reformer classes and doing some 1:1 sessions with Jenny for a few months now, taking some time to invest in her own health and wellbeing, which is something that instructors sometimes forget to do as they spend their time caring for others.

I have known Mairi for a few years, and when I first opened my studio in 2003 Mairi was one of my first clients, so I have watched Mairi develop and grow her business, bringing and giving so much to her FABfitness clients. So it is my delight to be able to share information about one of her up and coming events, with you — our JTP family.

Mairi wants to support The Falcon Centre and LWA by raising money at this event, and here is her information:

Zoe McNulty (click or tap here for information about Zoe)  is one of the UK’s leading fitness experts, specialising in fun and feisty group exercise and dance fitness concepts.

FABfitness are so excited to bring her to Leicestershire again on Saturday 1 October and host an afternoon of empowerment with Strutology® and Raunch® enabling women to boost their confidence whist getting their STRUT® ON.

So grab your girlfriends and for only £37:00 you can grab your heels (or flats) and just come and have some fun with us! Click or tap here to book.

£5:00 from every ticket will be supporting LWA and The Falcon support Services.

1 October 2016 — 2:30pm–6:30pm at Seagrave Memorial Hall, Green Lane, Seagrave, Loughborough, Leicestershire LE12 7LU and STRUT ® into Autumn! (Please note this event will not be filmed.)
Exercise of the Week
Following on from last week’s hip strength and stability routine, this week I am bringing you hip and thoracic mobility. The routine is a little longer at 17 minutes, and again it is suitable for everyone, from Absolute Beginners through to our Level 2 Improvers.

It is a great routine and focuses on mobility for our hips and for our thoracic spine — two key areas to keep our bodies moving freely.

Work at the appropriate level for your body, and keep away from pain.

Your Whole Self
This week I have been mostly thinking along these lines — classy, sassy and a little smart assy.

I have been doing some work on my mindset, because I felt that in order to be of my best, to do my best for all our JTP family, along with my team and also my own family — I needed to ‘walk the walk’.

I am here to help people, but in order to be able to do this, I have to invest in my own health and as I am a big advocate of the physical and emotional link for health, I knew that I was falling short in one area. My physical health is great, I exercise, I eat healthily following my 80/20 rule — 80% healthy/20% treat, but I recognised I needed help with the emotional. Stress was causing me problems, so I made the choice and started to work with Philippa Burnett, from Mindset Performance Academy for the East Midlands.

Some of you may remember Philippa, as she came and delivered a Mindset Workshop for us in January this year. She has made such a difference to me and how I have been feeling and dealing with my emotional health. One of the great things she made me do was list my wants, and don’t wants, for the Mind, Body and Soul — I have made it sound easy, but trust me it wasn’t.

It has made me focus on what is important to me in life and what I want to achieve. Once I completed my lists several words kept appearing in my wants — strong, sassy, peace, joy, love, humour and passion. These are becoming my intentions — my intentions are to stay strong, stay smart by keep learning and developing, teach with passion and humour, love what I do, find joy and peace in my life.

Take some time and start to think about your wants, and don’t wants, for your Mind, Body and Soul and see what starts to shine through for you this week.
