Where did the Summer go!ย  Where has the last 18 months gone!

Are you getting the same feeling as me that life speeds up as you get older?ย  When I turned 60 I discovered why itโ€™s call โ€˜the human raceโ€™.ย  Itโ€™s because it becomes a race to complete your bucket list before you die!

How are you getting on with your bucket list?ย  Iโ€™m still waiting to tick off the one I promised myself for turning 70 in 2020 which was to tour Morocco on my motorbike.ย  I hitchhiked around Morocco back in 1971 when a visit to the villages in the Atlas mountains changed my life.ย  ย I went on to study Arabic at University and then spent the next 30 years working overseas in various Arab countries

Have you managed to tick off something on your bucket list during these past 2 years?

If so, do share it with us in the comments – or tell us about one you too were planning but didnโ€™t get to do during lockdown or during our crazy Summer just gone.ย  Tell us about it in the comments.

 

Back to the presentโ€ฆ.

The majority of classes at Sale Pilates have continued online during the Summer which members preferred.ย  All online classes were, and are, recorded so not only did online give members flexibility of location but also of timing.

Now Autumn is on the way. The mornings are darker and the nights are drawing in which often leads to less activity outdoors.

With this in mind Iโ€™ve added a cardio class to the October schedule to help you to get your recommended 150 minutes of cardiovascular exercise every week.

 

NEW AEROBIC CLASS

From 6th October Iโ€™ve added a new low impact aerobics class to the schedule taught by the lovely Sam Hutchinson.

I first met Sam on a business mentoring group course earlier this year.ย  Sheโ€™s qualified to teach older adults and people with common medical and orthopaedic conditions.ย  Samโ€™s spent more than 18 years in the fitness industry and currently runs classes online and face to face in the Bristol area.ย 

The class will be streamed live via Zoom at 9.30am on Wednesdays.ย  This is an existing small group class so you will meet some lovely new people.

How to join:ย 

  1. this class will be included in your membership if you hold a multi-class membership
  2. you can pay the drop in fee of ยฃ8/class
  3. purchase an aerobic class membership (1 class per week) for ยฃ25 pm. Current members get a 25% discountย  .

50% of women over 50 and 20% of men over 60 suffer from Osteoporosis – a life threatening disease which can be prevented.ย  Sign up to this workshop and let me show you how easy everyday changes could not just transform the quality of your life but actually save it.
