Week beginning 19 July
Hello,
I hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather. Tomorrow Monday 19 July will be lifting of Covid restrictions in England. How will that impact on our classes? I don’t intend to change anything to be honest. We will still be ventilating the buildings, still have a booking system and QR codes so we can limit numbers and track and trace and I am still going to wait before I start Circuits classes where equipment is shared just to be on the safe side.
August – reduced timetable and holidays
I have decided to take the second part of August off work while we go on a family holiday to Wales and I complete some training. I will remind you about holiday dates over the next few weeks.
No Saturday morning Pilates in August

All classes will stop after evening classes Thursday 12 August until start again Wednesday 1 September

Week beginning 12 July
Hello,
I have to mention football today as England is through to the Euros tonight versus Italy. Whether you follow football or not it has been some positive news during these times. And the England team do Pilates! As we are starting to get back to face to face classes people have commented how much they have missed their Pilates sessions. Regular Pilates improves posture, muscle strength, balance, flexibility as well as relieving stress and tension. I have tried to provide classes for everyone so if going on the floor is not suitable we have Standing or Barre Pilates or if a standing class is not suitable we have Seated Pilates.
Good luck England tonight in the Euros!
New Saturday morning Pilates 9am
We have started our Saturday morning Pilates again. We are back at the Orthodox Church of Holy Apostles 403 Leyland Lane.
Seated Pilates is back on Mondays
We have started Seated Pilates again at 12.30pm on Mondays at Leyland Methodist Church Hall. It was lovely to see everyone last week!
Friday 16 July evening Nordic Walking Adventure starting at Brinscall Baths 6.30pm
We are going to explore the route towards Abbey Village via the disused railway line and the nature reserve. Meet outside Brinscall Baths at 6.30pm.
Next Nordic Walking Technique course 17 July 1pm
We will meet on Worden Park at 1pm. I will provide the poles. To book go to www.dofitness.org. Any questions please phone me on 07818444841. Regular Nordic Walking does wonders for your physical and mental health and can be enjoyed by different levels of fitness as we have a Wellbeing Group too which is a shorter distance at a slower pace.
Advance notice no Tuesday 27 July afternoon classes at Chorley United Reformed Church
Due to a long standing summer school booking the hall is not available on 27 July.
