25.01.2022 If anyone lives in the Shire or knows someone who does, Runnulla is a boutique running and sportswear shop. Sean is knowledgeable in all things fitness, being a personal trainer, and knows his sportswear too! As does Jenny, herself an UltraTrail finisher and lover of activewear. Give them a call for some new gear and they will deliver it to you! ... #supportsmall #supportlocal #COVID-19

25.01.2022 When your colleagues decide they want to do pilates in honour of International Womens Day, youre happy to oblige!

25.01.2022 Todays workout video courtesy of Miss Penelope! Warning: shes tough.

25.01.2022 Exercise with a focus on the breath, such as yoga or PILATES, can also be incredibly beneficial. When you move in time with your breath during mindful exercise, your breathing tends to slow down. Consciously slowing your breath can help to activate the parasympathetic nervous system.

20.01.2022 Todays class brought to you by as many cleaning products as we could find! In all seriousness: I communicated with my clients in advance of this mornings Total Barre class that we would be kicking our cleaning practices into high gear - and that meant not just me cleaning equipment but everyone would clean what they used. Nobody scoffed, everyone was quite enthusiastic. A great bonding experience in a time of chaos and uncertainty!

20.01.2022 Cleaning the equipment! Life of an instructor... You can be confident that the equipment you use during my classes is clean and germ free! Speaking of which: when are you joining me at the barre and on the mat? ... New Total Barre programme kicks off on February 1st!

18.01.2022 This seems a bit unnecessary... Im sure some of you will agree!

17.01.2022 I know Ive already said this, but its important to look after ourselves during this uncertain time. That means both physically and mentally. Heres some good advice: https://safeyoutube.net/w/4VJ2

17.01.2022 THANK YOU HUNTER VALLEY!

16.01.2022 Have you suffered from a fitness hangover? Hint: there is no alcohol involved. https://www.sweat.com/blogs/fitness/fitness-hangover

16.01.2022 The below advice may be five years old (from original posting) but it is still just as valid - maybe even more so as we continue to struggle with lockdowns and limitations related to COVID-19.

15.01.2022 The next Wine Barre event at Draytons Family Wines is in three weeks! Book your spot today! : http://tix.yt/wine-barre-by-deirdra

14.01.2022 Some tips to reduce stress brought on by Covid-19. Share with your friends and family FREE telephone counselling available; call/text us today to book!

10.01.2022 One of the things Im proudest of in 2019 is what I was able to contribute to raising awareness of ALS / MND. Its a horrible disease. It doesnt discriminate: young, old; fit, unfit. There is no cure but thanks to people like this man, there is now more money for research and treatment. And certainly more awareness of both the disease and the need to find a cure for it. Thank you again to those who donated to my fundraising efforts or, better yet, joined me for a class to move for MND.

10.01.2022 Heres a little sequence to get you off the couch! #pilatesanywhere #barrewhereyouare

05.01.2022 Should you remain active during pregnancy? Yes. Can you do Barre if youre pregnant? Also yes! Meet Kasie - an avid fan of the Barre and generally staying active all throughout her pregnancy! This photo was taken after our last class of the spring programme. Kasie was 36 weeks pregnant! 36 WEEKS. ... Did we modify certain elements of the class for her? Of course. Did she have to slow down a little as her pregnancy advanced? Yes. DID SHE GIVE THE OTHER LADIES IN THE CLASS A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY? Yes!!! I would often point out that the only person in class who had a valid reason for not having their leg as high or not pushing themselves as hard was Kasie, and that was great motivation for everyone! It also reminded me of what great shape Kasie was in and of the power of consistency. This was the second time I taught Kasie classes during a pregnancy. She generally felt well and loved the stretching more than anything. If youre hesitating to keep active while pregnant, get in touch to discuss your options! And CONGRATULATIONS to Kasie and her family on the birth of her healthy little girl last week from everyone at Pilates with Deirdra.

04.01.2022 So chuffed to receive this thank you gift from a group of colleagues today. The thank you was for taking them through lunch hour pilates classes over the last couple of months. I’m just so happy to be teaching people again! I hadn’t taught since my last class in the Hunter Valley in March. ... I don’t do it for the recognition. I do it to help people. I do it because I enjoy it. And I do it because it gives me a mental break as well. #gratitude
