Hello,
Somebody was asking me about Pilates the other day and I explained a bit of the history and benefits. Dr Michael Mosley did a Just One Thing broadcast about Pilates last week which gives a good explanation. I know my regulars tell me if they have to miss class for a few weeks they really feel the difference with more back pain, less flexibility and poorer balance. If you haven’t done Pilates this will tell you a bit more about it:
Just One Thing – with Michael Mosley – Practise Pilates – BBC Sounds

Information for Nordic Walking Groups

Flamenco Evening in Preston Thursday 23 November
In Zumba we use music from all around the world but primarily Latin-inspired music such as salsa and merengue. I even add some flavours of flamenco to some dances. There is an opportunity to experience an evening of flamenco music and dance in Preston at Preston Playhouse in November .
