25.01.2022 Hi Guys, Thanks so much for watching tonight. Unfortunately I messed up a setting on the meeting so that the Waiting Room was activated and anyone who was slightly late after I allowed the first group in was locked out! OOPS!!... I'll make sure thats fixed before I run another class. Below is the link of the recording for the whole session so you can do it WHENEVER YOU LIKE! https://us04web.zoom.us//7Ox-D4HU_FtLU9LI0kuAWZUDIpjrX6a81 This was a fairly basic class to account for any newcomers. I will gradually make them more complex/difficult and there will be less need to go into the basics as much. I think I will record a short Pilates Basics session for newcomers as well so that it doesnt have to be done every class. If you have any other feedback please let me know. I'll do my best to accomodate everyone. Hope to see you online again soon, Stay healthy! Cheers, Mel.

21.01.2022 ONLINE TUESDAY NIGHT MATWORK PILATES 8PM- FREE Thanks for you awesome feedback and support for last weeks class :) I know some of you have completed it multiple times which is just fantastic! Well done! I don't know about you but my back is feeling STIFF from being less active then usual so I've decided to add some small equipment into tonights class to helps us stretch out.... In this class we will utilise the FOAM ROLLER and BAND. If you don't have a these items you can use a standard sized rolled up towel with a pillow under your head to replace the foam roller for some of the exercises and another towel or piece of fabric (preferable with some stretch) to replace the band. There will be an option for every exercise without equipment so don't worry if you don't have these items. Feel free to share these classes with your family and friends, they are free to anyone and everyone who is able. They are not suitable for people who have acute injuries, severe mobility restrictions or women who are heavily pregnant (1st Trimester and part way through the 2nd are ok). REMEMBER THESE ARE NOT REHAB CLASSES. If your unsure if its safe for you to participate, best to check with your doctor first (via Telehealth of course!) Please register with the following link... https://zoom.us//regist/uJctcu-trjoiVJalv_TQ-9acG7dj1ww6SA CAN'T Make the live class? No worries, Ill post the recording afterwards so you can complete whenever and as many times as you like. Like this page to find out when its available and how to access.

21.01.2022 There is No 7pm class tonight due to our school concert taking place from 7pm - 8pm. I will run a class at 8.15 for those wanting to attend. The rest of the week is as usual Unfortunately I have tried without success to get the magic circles from another store for this weeks classes. They seem to be sold out everywhere.

20.01.2022 FREE ONLINE CLASS- PILATES BASICS! I have just uploaded our "Introduction to Pilates" class. (See attached link) The new lights look great, looking forward to teaching a full class again on Thursday.... This is a great short 30 minute session that covers all the basics you need to know to get the most out of the longer classes.

Hope you enjoy them! See you soon, Mel. https://youtu.be/Il0Afe99V1c

16.01.2022 Hi everyone. I few spanners have been thrown in the works this week! The first was that I forgot to press record on lasts week session so I'm unable to upload it. You can still access all of the recorded classes from the Youtube channel... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVYEJGd3U-9k92-a28pG_mw... Just remember if its your first time you MUST complete the INTRODUCTION TO PILATES SESSION (30min) first. There are 5 completed videos now. The second is that my poor husband has come down with a pretty nasty case of Shingles so I'm not able to run classes at the moment as I'm home schooling and caring for him. Hopefully he starts to feel better over the next few days and I can record some more sessions for you. Apologies for the change in routine this week. I hope you are travelling well and can hop on and complete a recorded workout anyway. Hopefully by next week we will be back on track and I'll be sure to let you know. Thanks for understanding! Cheers, Mel.

13.01.2022 *** UPDATED WITH CORRECT DATE!! NEW PRICING STARTS FEB 3RD not Jan*** Hi Everyone! After a lot of to a fro over the past couple of weeks trying to work out the best way to run these classes that is convenient and relatively easy for you guys and for myself I have confirmed the fees/processes for 2020. ... I have tried to strike a balance between keeping things fairly simple but also keeping this awesome little business that I love viable for the future so that I can continue to provide what I feel is a really important service for our local community. Thanks so much to my incredible clients for your support. Any session passes previously purchased will be honoured of course until they are used up, however I won't be selling any more class passes. Anyone with an existing class pass will have an opportunity to book a permanent weekly spot for the term anytime from now. The NEW arrangement will come in to effect first official week of term, which is the 3rd of Jan. If you don't have a class pass the casual rate of $15 will remain until the 3rd of Feb when the new fees come into effect. Anyone is able to book and pay for a permanent term spot from now. The other major change is that all bookings must be made via text as my online system is no longer being supported and therefore has too many issues for me to continue using it! Hopefully it all makes sense! Please feel free to text or call me on 0403 225 836 if you have any questions. I will be handing the below info out at class this week. _________________________________________________________________________ 2020 Pricing/fees CASUAL SESSION $20/CLASS Availability is not guaranteed for casual attendance. PERMANENT TERM BOOKINGS $15/CLASS A guaranteed place and a discounted rate of $15 is available for those who book a permanent place in a weekly class. Bookings are to be made and paid for in full at the commencement of each school term. TERM 1 Commences 3rd of Feb 2020 - 8wk term/$120 to reserve a spot in a weekly session time. If you are unable to attend a reserved spot and give 24hrs notice via text, I will do my best to accommodate you in a different class. Payment can be via cash OR Direct Deposit- BOOKINGS ONLINE BOOKINGS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE. Please text your bookings to Mel on- 0403 225 836. Feel free to give me a call if you have any questions or concerns

12.01.2022 Hi all, At 9pm tonight I'm going to run and record a 30min PILATES BASICS class. Any new participants will need to complete this before doing any of the other recorded or live classes. Link to meeting- ... Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/994373081 Meeting ID: 994 373 081 Password: 017284 It will have some basic exercises in it as well as a introduction to all of the terminology but I suggest if you want a full workout to do one of the previously recorded on my YouTube channel on the following link- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVYEJGd3U-9k92-a28pG_mw This process will help me to have confidence in my unknown participants ability to understand what I'm saying and what it means so they can practice safely :) This week I'm going to run a class on Thursday night 8pm and another sometime on Friday during the day (time to be advised). I have managed to get myself a really bright light so hopefully that will help with getting a clearer picture of me when I'm teaching. Next week Is supposed to be the start of term 1! Obviously we aren't going back to the old way of completing classes anytime soon so I will continue recording 2 classes per week. I will advise week to week when they are on as It may Vary depending on my husbands and kids work/homeschool meetings, but remember YOU CAN CHOOSE A CLASS AT ANY TIME ON THE YOUTUBE CHANNEL. Let me know if you have any questions :)

09.01.2022 Only 5 more weeks of classes until the end of 2019! Classes are up for the week, so get in touch with yourbookings. Cheers, Mel.

09.01.2022 Hi All, Apologies for dropping off the radar. My husbands office has been closed since last Monday and he is working long hours at home which has been a challenge with the kids at home too and trying to keep to ourselves as much as possible. What a crazy time we live in!... Im going to have a go at running our first online class this Thursday at 8pm. The class will be run via "Zoom" which is an online video conferencing App. It will run on any device and there is no need to have a Facebook account so I hope this will work for everyone! Below is the invitation to the meeting. You need to click on the link and register for the class. If you can't make that time, the session will be recorded and I will post the details so you can complete it later. Unfortunately I realise many of you don't have small equipment (ball, bands and foam rollers), so the class will run without equipment. This is going to be a bit of an experiment with trial and error! But I hope the classes will still be of value to you. You are more than welcome to invite friends and family, I don't mind :) I will be running through the basics at the start of the class so that any new comers can practice safely. Thanks again for your understanding everyone! Please see the invitation below.... Hi there, You are invited to a Zoom meeting. When: Mar 26, 2020 08:00 PM Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney Register in advance for this meeting: https://us04web.zoom.us//tZwocemtrD8sletUUe7kOxBMeQf_-qRHIA After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

09.01.2022 Hello to all my valued clients! In response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, after much consideration, I have decided to suspend all Pilates classes until further notice. I have been in contact with the church administrators and the sanitisation requirements to keep you all safe from potentially contracting AND spreading the virus are beyond my capacity to carry out. ... I realise this was to be the last week of classes for the term, and that some of you will have make up lessons that need to be completed also. I am more than happy for those make ups/classes to be carried through to whenever classes resume or taken off the price for next term, if I'm able to start again at that time. I also understand if you would like a refund for the classes you have paid for. Please email me- [email protected] with your bank details and I will do it ASAP. Im also going to take the opportunity to set up some form of online class. I have been wanting to do this for some time, and what better time than now for people who will be facing isolation. I'll let you know when and how this will take place. If you know anyone who isn't regularly on Facebook please let me know of this post. I will also be sending out text messages. Thanks for understanding guys. It's going to be a very disruptive time for many of us, we won't be travelling to the US and although the kids are disappointed they are missing out on Disneyworld (which is closed!!!) for now, we hope to take our trip later in the year. Stay Healthy and strong everyone, take care of each other and I willl be in touch. Cheers, Melissa.

09.01.2022 Classes open for bookings guys! Please book by either sending me a message, via the website or let me know when you are coming on whatsApp or text me (0403225836). Hope you all had a cracking weekend! Cheers, Mel.
