Our thoughts on mental health, fitness, physical activity, exercise and health.
What a book, where to begin? The book provides an insight into the body’s organ and all the systems that works together with the Gut. Engaging the reader with an explanation as to why we should pay more attention to the gut and how it can aid our health. There is discussion about the lack of interest in this organ, lack of understanding, embarrassment almost over the organ and the digestive system. You know ladies don’t actually poo right?! It’s all roses..

Denise questions why with age, do you start doubting whether you should be trying something new
When I saw Amelia Freer release the 10-day plan and the focus of the book, I thought this would be a good book to try. The mission is to introduce the reader to a healthy nutritional balance, rather than diets. It challenges how you think about food, forcing you to evaluate yourself and how you respond to food.
With Easter fast approaching it is time to get the walking boots out, dust off the bike, and catch up with family over the glorious bank holiday weekend.
Regardless of what Easter means to you, whether it is the religious significance, having time to recover from the busy work period or chocolate!

With this in mind, the tutoring team has shared a special place to them in the UK, where you can explore, enjoy family and stay healthy.
If you don’t have any plans this upcoming break, or unsure where to go for an adventure, this is a must read of our top locations! There is something for everyone.
What’s enough ? Too much ? Too little ?
We should all walk at least 10,000 steps a day. Right ? We all know that don’t we ? Where did that advice come from and why ?
Happy.. Are you happy?
Recently I wrote a blog about happiness and physical activity, so when I heard about Fearne Cotton’s book on happiness I had to check it out.
“Physical activity keeps people stronger and more supple as they age. It also improves balance, gives better bone density and makes them less likely to be depressed or develop Alzheimer’s. These are all things associated with needing less social care”.
Sedentary lifestyles: the hidden factor in the social care crisis
Peter Walker writing in the Guardian 15th Dec 2016
Every January, Gyms and Fitness Clubs throughout the country become busy as thousands of people with good intentions join up hoping to make some changes to their lifestyle.

Instructors can often view this increase in numbers with cynicism as their experience shows that these people won’t be there for very long.
A day in the life of a tutor..
I absolutely love teaching, I have learnt something new from every group I have taught. For 10 years, being in the studio all day, music on, sharing a passion with an excited team of budding new students, starting their journey in their new career choice.. I can't say it's always fun, sometimes very challenging and even emotional but I wouldn't change any part of my journey.
