Welcome to this month’s newsletter. I hope you’ve all had a great month and are now planning for the Spring ahead.
I wrote in the last newsletter that the bulbs were poking their heads up and now, as if by magic they’re in full bloom! It’s so lovely to see our landscape bursting into colour. I do hope you haven’t been too soggy this month and have been able to take advantage of the dry crisp days that we’ve had.
I’m taking a holiday this month, week 1, W/C 18th March. I’m very much looking forward to being in beautiful Dorset by the sea and you never know I may have a dip or a paddle!
Village hall classes will be online for the week. You will receive your classes via email 6:00am Monday 18th March to do when ever and as often as you’d like. They will be available until the following Monday. Any questions please do get in touch. Online class will have a recorded class available from 6am on Monday 18th March on Facebook Live.
THURSDAY 7TH MARCH 2024
I have just started this book as I was recommended it as a very good read. I’ve not come across the author before. It begins in 1944 Italy, a chance meeting of two strangers in a ruined wine cellar of a Tuscan village. So far the writing is so descriptive, setting the scenes beautifully so you are transported to the villages and countryside, almost feeling the heat of the sun and dryness of the air. I’m looking forward to reading on. Do you have a favourite author or book? Which book are you reading at the moment? I’d love to hear any recommendations.
INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY – FRIDAY 8TH MARCH 2024
A day to celebrate all women and they’re achievements however large or small. Is this a day that you mark in anyway? I will be hosting my very first Menopause Café the following day. Bringing women together to support each other, have some fun and of course CAKE!
THE MENOPAUSE CAFE
I am very excited to be hosting my very first Menopause Café tomorrow. Lesson plans are done, music chosen and cakes baked!
This is an opportunity for us to get together, move our bodies, clear our busy minds and have a conversation. I’m hoping that ladies at all different stages of the menopause will come along, even if you went through it many years ago. We all have something to offer whilst we navigate this stage in our lives.
The sessions will be menopause related; A strength training session with weights of your choice, A weight bearing based Pilates session (no weights) and to finish a Mind Body Flow session to clear your mind and relax. We will then break for refreshments and general chatter!
Each exercise session would be 30 minutes with a 15 minute break in between. £20.00 for the morning including refreshments and all you need is an exercise mat, pad for head, weights of your own choice and wear loose, comfortable clothing and trainers. Please feel free to bring a blanket for the Mind Body Flow session.
