New Day Pilates

17/10/2026

I’m not saying I start all my days exactly like this!! But every day begins with movement and I always love the energy of the sunlight in the hall on a Wild Card Saturday morning …. It’s irresistible to me to flow, shake, move and tip inside down.
Including my 3 daily hand stands .. that I was especially chatting about yesterday on a woodland walk with a friend ( as well as us doing some of these qi energy patterns of movement surrounded by the amazing trees and the blue sky … nature is our greatest source of wellness)

It is so special to be able to share my holistic wellness skills in the village that is my home 🦋

Wellbeing Day in Croston Village

24/09/2026

An utterly magical Autumn Equinox evening… I have a beaming smile on my face and in my heart.

Outdoor pilates in nature around the fire, and in amongst the trees. Being adventurous on the rope swing.
Marshmallows and smores whilst chatting about anything and everything… really our chat was completely diverse!

All under the sunlight and moonlight - in balance, as well as warmth and cool air, movement and stillness, laughter and quietness, sharing memories and plans.

And always feeling so privileged and grateful to live in this beautiful village, with this literally on my doorstep.

So thank-full, and celebrating all that our community keeps expanding into, and feeling so alive

The arrival of the Autumn Equinox, with moving into Libra on Wednesday and the full moon on Saturday offer us a beautiful week.

Join me in Croston on Thursday 24th September 6-7pm around the firepit in the woods for some standing movements, marshmallows and chatting.

Come wrapped up, bring your drink of choice and yourself exactly as you are.

As a community we will welcome in the balance in our way of living that Libra asks us to evaluate, and that the equinox gives us with equal lightness and darkness, the cosy fire and colourful flames a reminder of our inner power that the full moon illuminates.

No charge as this is my gift to you.

Glimpses of Sanctuary Sunday at the weekend.

The guiding word was ALIVE.

Each part of a Sanctuary Sunday is carefully crafted and curated to echo the season, the month, the lunar cycles and our word.

Apples, heather, thyme, Michaelmas daisies, citrine crystals all resonate with this time of year.

Apples which are in abundance from the harvest. A reminder of the cycle of giving and receiving, the earth gifts us food and we receive it with gratitude. As we go about our days we, too, can gift a smile, a word, time, a kindness, a compliment… and we must also accept and receive all these back to us

The 5 pointed star in the centre of each apple echoes Venus moving through the skies to kiss the earth 5 times.
A 5 pointed star charm was included in the Sanctuary gift as an encouragement to give ourselves 5 words or acts of kindness, recognition , care and belief. Have you done that today?

We moved through seated somatics and qi moves; explored guided reflexology and into some balancing, twisting, turning Pilates that had us working our bodies out of their comfort zones.

Cakes using seasonal fruits that were gifts from friends’ gardens or foraged for refreshments … and the sun came out for us to enjoy these outside by the river.

“I meet life with enthusiasm and energy, showing up in the moment, passionate and fully energised. I am the seed of potential and ready for anything”

Next sanctuary Sunday is 22nd November - message if you would like to book a place

With Pisces as my moon sign it completely explains my love of and connection with water.

For adventure, for fitness, for mindfulness, for quietness, for clarity… it’s a real source of life energy for me, physically, emotionally, energetically .

Whether it’s water sources created by mature or constructed I’ll gaze at it, watch it or get into it.

The Gateway art installation at .artland was out of this world! To swim in and through an art installation was the most amazing experience. The symbolism of the artwork includes astrological pathways, a threshold or gateway to another dimension, individuality, mystical connection of earthy energy to ancient landscapes, communal joy and built with in tune with the ley lines of the land .
Joana Vasconcelos has woven all this and more into the most magical experience .

With the full moon in Pisces and lunar eclipse - I am “swimming” into this new day, new lunar phase, new season with smiles, laughter and an uplifted energy.

And most definitely living out my 2026 guiding words of thank-full, alive, celebrate 🦋

It’s amazing how spinning and floating in space is energising and relaxing … honestly one of my favourite places!
I’m spreading my dragonfly wings and definitely “feeling good…. Floating on by” (Nina Simone).

- thank you more than ever

A fabulous Wild Card morning of “pilates, pathways and pastries”.

And so much more …. Pilates for strength, mobility, connectivity of the entire body and mind working in harmony. Today we used blankets and woven straps to help, to challenge and keep our curiosity in the familiar movements.

A walk through nature with all sorts of topics for our chatting.

All rounded off with coffee, tea, muffins, cookies, breakfasts at .0 where there was more chatter and a great deal of laughter! All made and served with a smile, individuality and enthusiasm.

The energy, friendships and community are priceless- thank you to you all 🦋

Next date will be shared soon .
