What the Fuzz?

By Debbie Wyer on 28 February 2025

Have you ever noticed how animals always take time to stretch when they wake up? Take Cookie, our pup, for example. No matter how excited she is to see us—tail wagging like a helicopter—she never skips her routine. She’ll leap off the sofa, do an updog, then a downdog (yep, that’s where yoga got the names!), and stretch every few steps before finally greeting us.

Feel The Difference

By Debbie Wyer on 07 February 2025

Pilates practice is built on gentle, intentional movements—that’s why classes are kept small and the adjustments suggested help you become more body-aware. We often return to a mobility movement to check in and see if it feels different. Sometimes, when you slow down and give your body a moment to relax, it can let go of tension, and movement feels freer and more effortless

We all know how important it is to stay hydrated, but did you know that our bodies are made up of 60% water? Hydration affects every organ and cell in your body - your brain, skin, spine, fascia all need water to function well.

Osteoporosis

By Debbie Wyer on 27 October 2022

Osteoporosis is a condition that causes bones to become thinner and more fragile and is most common in women. In our late 20’s we have peak bone mineral density and then it starts to decline. From 45-55, bone breakdown occurs at a faster pace in women due to the effects of the menopause and the reduction of oestrogen. Women may lose 10-30% of their bone density over a 5-year period of the menopause.

Why Pilates?

By Debbie Wyer on 25 August 2022

As you might’ve guessed I LOVE Pilates. Even when I’m on holiday I’m thinking about it. It is definitely my passion, hence the fact that I’m running my own business teaching it to others and helping them to defy the ageing process. Joseph Pilates himself said: "In 10 sessions you will feel the difference, in 20 sessions you will see the difference, and in 30 you will have a whole new body."

Well-being is a journey

By Debbie Wyer on 28 July 2021

For everyone, well-being is a journey. The secret is committing to that journey and taking those first steps with hope and belief in yourself – Deepak Chopra I realised some time ago that I can be my worst enemy - especially when it comes to my own well-being. If we can’t look after ourselves, how can we look after everyone around us.
