24.01.2022 With all that’s been happening in the world & locally regarding Covid-19 virus, I thought it important to let our little community know how we will be approaching things. I am doing my part to help stop the spread of infection in our own environment & keeping us all safe & well. Doing things together will make us stronger! I will continue to sanitise all equipment after every session, as well as door handles & other surfaces in the studio. However, taking into consideration ...the current situation, further procedures will be implemented starting tomorrow Monday 16 March to ensure hygiene is of a high standard: - All clients are required to wipe down equipment used upon completion of session. Hospital grade disinfectant & disposable wipes will be available. - a wash station with soap & running water will be available for clients to use before a session, or as required. - hand sanitiser available as usual. - hand & feet straps on reformers & cadi are removed & washed often, however they are unable to be changed after every use. Single use cotton gloves will be made available for use by clients. The gloves will be washed after each use. - instructor contact during hands-on adjustments will be limited. Unwell? Stay Home!! Please - if you have one or any combo of the following complaints: flu-like symptoms, fever, runny nose, cough, shortness of breath and/or sore throat please do not attend the studio. - if you or a member of your household has travelled overseas in the last 2 weeks, please seek advice from health professional before attending the studio. - if you have been in contact with anybody who is being tested for - or been confirmed positive with Covid-19, the recommendation is to stay away for 14 days (incubation period) and then only return if you are clear & free of symptoms. - if you have been experiencing vomiting or diahorrea in the last 48 hours please do not attend the studio. - if any member of your household has experienced any of the above symptoms for the last 48 hours please do not attend the studio.

24.01.2022 Every Thursday, this awesome lady takes me out of my comfort zone (Pilates!) & puts me though some other Personal Training. We do stuff like the sled push/pull, dead lifts, squats - I think you get the idea! & you can tell from how I look in the pic above (stuffed!) it’s quite full on Amy Hanger runs a home based business called Mind Body Republic. She is a qualified Strength & Conditioning coach, a Food/Nutrition Coach as well as selling a range of health food products. S...he’s the best at what she does If I didn’t do Pilates, I know I would not have the body awareness, core control or strength to do these sessions with Amy. She is an excellent & highly qualified trainer & I trust her instruction when she puts me through the grind! I love it! Cross training is important to cover all the bases of physical fitness. Pilates, Weights, Cardio, Gym, Yoga - the mix is good to tick off all your goals Check out all the local health talents we have in Goulburn - they are all awesome #mpilates70 #mindbodyrepublic #rightnowingoulburn #goulburnpilates #goulburnfitness #crosstraining #pilates #pilatesforlife #pilatesforweighttraining

17.01.2022 Christmas Break A reminder that M Pilates classes & studio will be closing from 21 December for the holidays We will be returning with a Summer timetable from Monday 13 January (details released later this week!)....

17.01.2022 Getting Closer...but still Online - for Now.... It’s looking fairly positive & there is now a plan for everything to slowly reopen again.

This means there is light at the end of the tunnel - all going well we will be open once again for classes in the studio soon! I will have firmer dates when Aunty Gladys & the NSW Government make an announcement ... I have been sooo very lucky to have been supported through this time by so many of you joining the live Zoom classes & the online workouts on the website. THANK YOU I’m not quite sure I can let you know how much this has helped me through this difficult & uncertain time for me & my little Pilates studio Chances are, however, when we do get back to the studio that there will be some changes in how M Pilates can offer services & what classes will be available. There will be changes to the timetable, & some classes may not be offered.

14.01.2022 Always a student -training & learning how to do Pilates better, different - so that I can then share this knowledge with my clients. Back in September, I spent a weekend at @thepilatesworkshop in Wollongong with the super talented, inspiring & lovely Tamara who took us through the @balanced_body teacher training module for the Trapeze Table. An intensive 16 hour course that provided a thorough introduction to Trapeze table exercises as well as applications for beginning, ...post-rehabilitation & advanced clients. I learnt many new exercises & applications on the Trap Table, building on my knowledge - & I even conquered one of my fears - being up-side-down! With Tam’s instruction & encouragement, I achieved & learnt so much during this course! If you’ve ever thought of becoming a Pilates instructor, check out the @thepilatesworkshop who are highly qualified teachers of the @balanced_body Pilates teacher training - the leader of Pilates teacher training around the world! We are fortunate to have this training available close by! Thanks again Tamara!!

14.01.2022 I just want to say Thank You to my beautiful, fun, kind, generous, understanding, accommodating M Pilates community Together we did our little bit to keep each other & the rest of the community a little safer from this virus that seems to be taking over our world & daily lives. Thank you to all of you for still coming to class, washing, sanitising hands & equipment & wearing cotton gloves! M Pilates will be on a break from tomorrow Monday 23 March as planned. Although I ...will not be travelling, I will be in self isolation for the next 14 days as my daughter arrived from the UK last night & I will be isolating with her. It will be a lovely time for us to spend together (challenging as well I’m sure!!) I will let you all know when we will be back in the studio. For now, keep moving!!! To stay healthy & keep our immune systems working well & our stress levels down - exercise is crucial! Get outside in the beautiful autumn sun (remember to keep your distance!) take a walk, do some Pilates at home!! Remember to stay in contact with friends & family during this unsettling time. Reassure each other that this too will pass Take care dear friends & I will be posting over the next 14 days. Stay tuned!

09.01.2022 TESTIMONIAL // The M Pilates community has a new member! Welcome Anastasia Your beautiful Mumma, Mary, did Pilates before and throughout her pregnancy up until three day’s before she gave birth to her gorgeous little girl! Thank you for this lovely recommendation @msotiros for M Pilates! Maria made me feel very comfortable and supported throughout my pregnancy. I feel very grateful to have had someone so caring on my team! There was never a time I felt pushed or un...comfortable with any of the exercises and Maria always made sure that I wasn’t pushing myself too hard. I fully believe that the skills I was taught during Pilates, particularly the breathing exercises and deep stretches towards the end of the pregnancy, set me up for success during labour. I don’t have a horror birth story and had a beautiful water birth that was so special to me. Thankyou Maria for all the extra time and effort you put into modifying classes for me each and every week. I can’t wait to get back into Pilates with you postpartum. #pregnancypilates #prenatalpilates #rightnowingoulburn #pilatesmummas #stayhome #isolife #pilates

Thank you so much for coming along & taking the time to learn some new techniques that I hope will enable you to get more from your F45 classes! ... Pilates consists of low-impact flexibility & muscular strength & endurance movements. Pilates emphasises proper postural alignment, core strength, & muscle balance. It is the perfect cross training exercise you can incorporate into any fitness regime to get the most out of every workout, as well as everyday life.

07.01.2022 Thank you for all your support while I took time out from instructing to let my back heal. I appreciate everyone’s support & patience You’re probably thinking...How can she have a back problem ? She is a Pilates instructor ?! Well, my love for Pilates started because of my back problems. I was so amazed by its benefits & that it helped me put off surgery that I then decided to study & now teach Pilates. I have a few disc bulges in my lumbar spine - lower back. Basically,... a disc bulge is when the soft cushion (disc) that sits between the vertebrae of the spine becomes damaged and it may herniate or push out against the spinal cord and nerves. The pain is often felt not so much at the disc but along the nerve path. Think sciatic nerve - if you’ve ever had it you understand the pain! Also, the nerve pain felt is different for everyone! So, during my week of rest, I have been getting help from an osteo & physio, working to decompress my spine as much as possible and stabilising my pelvis by doing specific exercises that encourage and strengthen my core stability. Mindful movement using the breathe to switch on the deep abdominal stabilisers. Getting back to the basics! I have made a few videos of some of the exercises I’ve been doing if you’re interested have a look I am back instructing as of tomorrow! Looking forward to being back in the studio with you all!! But with limited demonstration for a few weeks until I’m feeling right again See you all soon Maria xx
