20.01.2022 **Why I need the Spring Into Summer Challenge* I have pushed myself outside of my comfort zone more times than I can count in 2020. I am seeing my dream business come to life and it is so special ... I could not be more grateful to be living this life! I have to say though, this year has been A LOT. Fires. Floods. Pandemics. Home schooling. Working remotely. Distance from friends and family. Pivot after pivot after pivot. It is all a little exhausting, and I know, that my health, has dropped to the bottom of my "to-do-list". And the "to-do-list" isn't getting any shorter! Which is why I need this challenge! Even though it may seem a little counter intuitive to add, yet another thing to the list.. (I totally hear that btw) I am seeing this challenge as a opportunity to reset! I am still going to be busy, yes. BUT The difference will be is that I will be challenging myself, to prioritize "me". Challenging myself to find time to exercise, to take the time to nourish my body and eat well, to have a good think about what lights me up. AND I will have all of you, pushing me a long, being my cheer squad and holding me to account. Which is exactly what I need! I need that little bit of a nudge! I need to have a little bit of external motivation to keep me on track! Which is why I need this! Doors to the Spring Into Summer Challenge will close this weekend! I would love for you all to join me and give your self the chance to re-set ready for summer! Deets are in the bio See more

20.01.2022 "Belle Essentials" - The newest addition! When we were in lock down there was a lot of thinking time, mostly in the thinking chair (tune into my stories - I often chat from the thinking chair ) And what we came up with was 2 new time efficient - all-of-the-good-things reformer classes which we think you are going to loooovveee! And they fall under the "Belle Essentials" category. ... Essential Reformer - a 45 minute smooth moving technical class. Great for beginners or pilates enthusiasts looking to slow down a touch and focus on their technique. But remember - slower doesn't mean you won't feel like you are getting some of that pilates burn HIIT Reformer for those looking for a littel sweat. 45 minutes of High Intensity Intervals, utilising the reformer and other small props. Fast paced. Super fun For more info or to book - pop up to the link in the bio See more

19.01.2022 Introducing one of the new classes to be added to the Belle Fam Belle Bridging is all about Bridging the gap between a beginner to confidence in entering any of our group classes! Bridging is a 3 class program that is with just you and one other person! ... This is to ensure we can give you loads of attention! We take you through the 3 class program at your pace. It may take you 1 week, it may take you 3 or 4. Doesn't matter! We just want to give you individual attention to help you feel strong and confident in our classes. During the program we will take you through all of the pilates basics. The reformer, the mat, small props. engaging particular muscle groups, breathing (yes, we will teach you to breathe seems obvious, isn't always) take you through all of the foundation exercises so that you feel 100% ready and confident to join us in any of our classes! It really is the absolute best best BEST place for you to begin if you've never ever done pilates before, or if you want to ease you way into the Belle Movement groove. This class is now live on the MindBody app - so you can book it in if you know this is perfect for you Link is in the bio. As always, if you have any questions at all, get in touch! We really love talking about pilates

So pilates or yoga with onsite nannies (eeeekkk!!) All of the classes are live on MindBody right now! We are just so excited to have Kelly joining us in our space! #collaborationovercompetition #bellemovement #ettalongyoga

18.01.2022 Have you tried a Fusion Class? I know I shouldn't have a fave child.... Sorry Class. I meant class ... BUT truth be told - it is might just be fave class to plan and teach. I just LOVE it! Pilates inspired, strength and conditioning And the "vibe"! Its all in, its chatty (I'm pretty sure we've solved all of the worlds major problems in theses classes ) its burny, its a bit sweaty and it's a bit fun SO. GOOD

16.01.2022 **REST** Hello Friends - been a little MIA on here of late. And I can confirm that it was NOT because I was resting!... Quite the opposite in fact. I hit the wall in a big way - mostly because in the last 6 months, rest is not a thing that I have done. AT. ALL. I could have leaned on my amazing team a little more. They would have supported me (which when I crashed and burned - they did!). I could have said no to a couple more classes - my clients would have understood (which when I crashed and burned - they did!). I could have taken the foot off the pedal for a hot minute - the biz will be ok (when I crashed and burned, I did). I wound up sick in about 3 different ways. My body literally gave up. And i knew it was going to! I was as flat ans flat can be. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't concentrate. I knew it was coming and I ignored it. So, a word form me to you - listen to your body. Don't ignore the signs that you are burning out. And take what rest you can when you can. No matter how small... On that note - I am taking a couple of days off! Up the coast I go for some surfing and some quite time! My team have got this covered, my clients are happy and Belle will survive for few days whilst I recharge the batteries! See more

16.01.2022 This post popped up in my feed today... I felt I needed to share it again! The last little while I've felt a little frustrated that my body just won't do what it used to. Being an athlete was so fun and so bloody satisfying. Sometimes as a parent and a business owner you can sometimes go for weeks with out a win and my competitive spirit doesn't always love that BUT in all honesty, thats not the bit I really miss. And this post reminded me of why I loved sport and why I f...elt such a big urge to start Belle and what I hope.tp share with my girls as they grow Its always nice to look back Read on #repost Flash back to what feels like another life, where my joy came from sport and all of the awesome things that I gained from it! I gained friends, family, health, fitness, happiness, amazing memories and a place to belong. Do I miss it? For so many reasons, I do miss this feeling. I miss the competition, the training, the satisfaction of completing an event and reaching a goal. But, for so many reasons I am grateful that it is behind me, and I can take the things I gained from sport and apply them to my life now. Those things I gained, are the things I hope to give to others with this little business... Friends, family, health, happiness, fitness, amazing memories and a place to belong . . . . . . . #movingisbeautiful #bellemovement #flashback2014 #surflifesaving #activelifestyles #lifelessons #thegoodolddays #smallbusiness

15.01.2022 Monday will be 1 month in the new studio! When I saw the date, I nearly fell off my chair! In the space of 1 month we have opened, welcomed back a whole lot of familiar friends and met some amazing new ones! ... We've added some extra staff (I'll talk about them more later!) We've created some new classes. We've made some adjustments to our some of our old faves!

14.01.2022 Ok - who else has been talking about the elusive "next year"? I think I have used the phrase "next year" roughly 20 times this week Just like the 31st of December will tick past and we will just "magic" into a place that is a little less 2020-ish. ... Maybe that is what will happen Here is what I think - I think there might be some of us out there, who may be feeling a little flat... Perhaps a little run down... Maybe a little bit in need of some motivation and a reset. So "next year" looks like a nice marker to do that How about this though... What if we didn't wait until then? What if we give ourselves a little reset BEFORE then? Keep your eyes on this space friends, I think I may just have the little pep up you need See more

14.01.2022 Early Birds - This is for you! We now have a 6:30am Fusion Class with Jenna on a Wednesday morning! AND ...

13.01.2022 Ok ok, we've been a little quite over here! There has been so much to digest with opening the new studio, working out the schedule, bringing on new staff, meeting heaaapss of amazing new members. It has been great! But been A LOT ... So I had a big old switch off yesterday. No emails, no insta, no texting, no active wear (which for me is a treat ) but I really needed 24 hours where Belle didn't enter my brain space. It was nice to turn it all off and spend some time with my BFF, her fresh bubba and my big little girl (can you believe how grown up she is right now ) Back into it today! Feeling refreshed and ready to roll into the next few big weeks! See more

13.01.2022 Oh Mali... This baby was not one to ever sleep on me or even near me for that matter. Today she's not feeling the best and crashed in my arms for the first time in, "I-can't-remember-how-long". And then it dawned on me, that it might be the last time she sleeps on me like a baby.... Was pretty lovely to just sit and soak up the last bit of baby that she has

13.01.2022 **Priority Management** There are only so many hours in the day... That isn't going to change. So what we need to try and do is to manage our priorities. ... Where does your wellbeing sit on the list? Could it be a little higher? The Spring Into Summer Challenge is allllllll about this! Moving "you" a little higher on the priority list... That was what today's little mini challenge was alllll about! Seeing if we could shift your priorities just a little bit. How did you go? Could you find 10 minutes? We will help you do this in the Challenge. Give you the tools to put yourself to the top of the list! Doors close SUNDAY 25th October! Link in the bio See more

13.01.2022 **You can "Abs"solutely find 10 minutes** Ok friends - here is a mini challenge for you! (and I have a prize! So keeeeppp reading!) Tomorrow I am going to share one of my 10 minute, short and snappy, ab classes, that will be a part of the "Spring Into Summer Challenge" ... I challenge you - to find 10 minutes in your busy day to: 1) Complete the 10 minute class AND If you'd like to go in the draw to win a Belle Pilates Pack 2) Share in your stories when you have completed it and be sure to tag us in it! I know life is busy - I mean, I own a pilates studio and I very rarely get the chance to do pilates! BUT I know that it is because I don't prioritize my exercise... So tomorrow - let's do it together. Let's find 10 minutes somewhere in the day, to get this little bit of movement into our day! I will post the class tomorrow at 7:00am. We aren't going to feel any worse for having done 10 minutes of self care right? I will check in through out the day tomorrow and see how you get on! 10 minutes of the moving medicine we know we need! See more

10.01.2022 @ami_rankin is an expert in overwhelm and is joining us during the "Spring Into Summer Challenge" with some AMAZING bonus content! We chatted all about... Recognizing overwhelm ... Priority management rather than time management Some tools to help you say no And why a little bit of accountability when it comes to prioritizing yourself isn't such a bad idea Ami is such a joy and both @jokate_nutririon and I are so excited to share a little more of Ami's knowledge with you during the challenge

09.01.2022 I have got so many feelings about this!! Have a read and sign sign sign!

09.01.2022 Before 8:00am we cover a lot of mental and physical ground! Wake up, feed hunans (sometimes you are included on that list of humans, sometimes not) pack up, drop off, tantrums 1,2 & 3, forgotten school photos (may or may not have been me this week ) get to work and begin.... It is no wonder we often feel a little overwhelmed. ... BUT the "things" that we do, that take the time, need doing right? So that is why we can't always prioritize our wellbeing. TOO.MANY.THINGS. We can't just say - ok 2 year old, or I am not going to pack your lunch today and walk yourself to preschool, thanks! We have to do the things, but what we need to try and do, is with in the "things" try to find a way to include our "things" with out adding waaayy more to the list, How? During the Spring Into Summer Challenge, we do a little exercise where we explore ways we can delegate, mitigate and eliminate some of the "things" that take our time. EG. As above... 2 year old can not take herself to preschool. It has to stay. BUT we can mitigate the lunch making task. Why not make yourself an amazing lunch to take with you for the day as well? Why not pack yourself a day's worth of healthy snacks? I know it seems rich, coming from me. "just pack yourself some healthy snacks", "Just give yourself 10 minutes to do your Pilates" I totally hear that! BUT it can be done! And that is what the Spring Into Summer Challenge is all about! Shifting your mindset and giving you a little bit of motivation to change the way you prioritize yourself! Door will close to the Spring Into Summer Challenge" On Sunday night! To join us - follow the link in the bio See more
