Hey it's Friday.......The sun has got his hat on :)

NOW I'm not one for exercising, However since I have been introduced to Annette Holliday by my dear friend Sarah DaughtreyI'm enjoying pilates.....I love it with a PASSION and Annette is passionate teaching pilates and it shows....to me Annette is amazing and has never made anything seem difficult, she helps me to UNDERSTAND pilates at my level and encourages me to ENJOY which I do. As a last minute person I rang Annette as I knew she was doing a session up at The Beacon and asked am I ok to tag along to today's session.............as always Annette happy to help and encourage said yep see you there. Outdoors, the sun, yes I admit a bit chilly but once your warmed up your ready to GO!! The session was great 'Power Walk' and I really enjoyed it different styles in walking, posture, lunges, squats, tri-ceps, press-ups and I loved the streching outdoors the wind against my face with the sun shining....what a great start to a Friday morning.

I'd like to say a huge THANK YOU I have never enjoyed exercise until I'd met the right instructor. I wouldn't swap my sessions for anything......thank you for encouraging me and helping me take these tiny steps to a new way of thinking.........so I too can enjoy a bright and better future. Suzie

I enjoy Annette’s sessions because it involves the whole body and includes not just fitness but strength and flexibility. If I haven’t been for a couple of weeks it is noticeable that my back gets stiff and is easily put out. The sessions are friendly and everyone is able to work to their own ability and being with older people, it is not a fashion parade or the music so loud that you can’t hear the instructions.

Keep going Annette, we need you !!!!

See you on Wednesday

I have been attending Annette’s classes for about 5 years and always enjoy them. Annette is a friendly, knowledgeable instructor who always makes the classes fun. The classes cover a full body workout with a good emphasis on stretching which means that I rarely ache afterwards. She also makes good provision for differing levels of ability and fitness so if you’ve missed a class or two, you can still fully participate.

I really look forward to and enjoy the aerobics and pilates classes with Annette.
Not only is her technique very good but she is a first class and motivational instructor.
She keeps herself up-to-date by taking additional qualifications/training, so I trust her advice.

I have  been attending Annette's aerobics classes for over 9 years now and I love them!  Twice a week I see Annette working hard to ensure that we all get the most out of every class.  We have a thorough (but safe)workout in a friendly atmosphere and after every class I feel so much better - in mind and body!  Without hesitation, I would recommend it for anyone.

I thoroughly enjoy Pilates because it not only tones and strengthens your muscles but i feel so relaxed afterwards.  Annette takes the time to explain the moves and checks you have understood as well as giving tips on how to apply what you have learnt to everyday situations and tasks. The class is friendly and informal and you don`t need any expensive equipment! Cathy x

I have been coming to the class for ten years now - this is my eleventh year just beginning. I come to two classes a week and I think that, and the time I have been attending classes, is ample witness to how much I enjoy them and how much I appreciate the hard work and energy shown by Annette, At times when I have had an injury she has demonstrated alternative exercises and she is always patient when people have difficulties. In the time I have been attending the classes at Rawlins I can only remember Annette cancelling the class on two or three occasions - and that has been because of unavoidable family issues, never on her own account.

Best wishes

The path for me – my journey

It was the type of day that was fated to be different from the start in many life changing ways.

My brother had taken my young daughters away on a camping trip for the weekend and I in return was looking after his three dogs. My husband brought me a cup of tea in bed, ‘What a lovely start to a bright summers morning’ one would think. Then chaos hit.

What is the latest information regarding Coconut Oil?

I was teaching my Wednesday morning plates class and we were discussing some of the benefits of coconut oil.

One of my clients who is from Malaysia said that in her country whenever the children had a temperature they gave them a teaspoon of coconut oil and it brought the temperature down.

I had not heard of coconut used in this way before.

It lead me to thinking….

What other amazing uses does it have?
