MENOPAUSE COACH
As a woman of 54, I am on my peri-menopause journey and have been since I was 45
Its a confusing time for many woman as our hormones make a drastic adjustment, upsetting our balance of the endocrine system as a whole
BUT it does not have to be a miserable journey
There are ways to manage these changes and make life feel better.
Therefore I have set about gaining a menopause certification and setting up a community group on FB.
This is free as part of my course and is called FEEL FREE
I post regular health tips to assist woman making creative choices each day, to help life feel better
I will be running a full menopause course online from the new year, details to follow; however please contact me on my CONTACT page if you would like more information
I am now also running a course called FEEL FREE
including pilates classes, I have designed modules to work through and for you to discover where you can make simple choices to make life feel better through the menopause, whether on HRT or not
Please use my CONTACT page and I will get straight back to you with more details
THANK YOU X
AND NOW I am a PUBLISHED AUTHOR

WHY DO PILATES?
WHY DO PILATES?
Why we chose to do Pilates?
We are both very active but were looking to improve our posture, balance and joint mobility, as well as build our strength and flexibility and help overcome some annoying niggles and strains that we had picked up through running, cycling and walking a very boisterous German Shepherd Dog.
Visits to the physio helped but were not improving or correcting our condition so we decided to try Pilates as way to build our core muscles and set our bodies up for long term success.
How it has helped?
The weekly sessions with Anna have certainly delivered on all of the above, we have been really impressed with how she designs the sessions to our individual needs & requirements.
At the start of each session Anna is always keen to understand how our bodies are feeling and uses this feedback to tailor each session.
During the lockdown period we moved to Zoom sessions so as to continue the program which also helped us keep our sanity ! Anna's upbeat and positive nature always makes you try that bit harder in each session.
The group Zoom classes have also been useful as we can fit them in around are various schedules and work commitments

GLUTES ARE BOSS
Along with the core and pelvic floor activation, glute activation is key to prevent unnecessary loading of the lower back; and will help to avoid injury.
The glutes support the hips, as the thigh lifts towards the trunk, in simple movement such as walking, running, or even climbing the stairs. However if the glutes are weak, the body will lean forward in walking or climbing stairs, indicating the loading of the back because the glutes are not strong enough.
It is likely that lower back injury or fatigue can be accelerated because of inactive glutes. Even an old ankle injury can inhibit the natural recruitment of the glutes. Our body has a natural kinetic chain and if disturbed through injury, or over use of one area of the body, can inhibit this kinetic chain working efficiently.
In training at HIIT sessions and Fitness Pilates, I will be helping you to:
1.Visualise the muscles that you are working
2.Feel the muscle that you should be activating; which helps to set-up the unconscious neurological pathway in your body for efficient use of energy and avoid injuries.(train the brain)
3.Activate and stretch the gluts
4.Stretch the deep hip muscles, e.g. the piriformis
5.Massaging the gluts with hip circles into the floor and releasing potential sciatic issues and nerve endings in the lumbar spine
6.Releasing the hamstrings
7.Tension release of the hip flexors, allowing the gluts to ‘fire’ up sufficiently
8.Inspiring the body to move through synchronised activity to enhance efficient energy pathways in the body
9.Inspire the neurological pathways and practice, without loading the back
10.Using different feet positions when taking part in exercises

THANK YOU TO JAYNE FOR HER HONESTY AS SHE TAKES STEPS TO MAKE LIFE FEEL BETTER THROUGH THE
PERI-MENOPAUSE
Great! All paid today for you! So, since starting the Balance tablets I have started to see some changes. Hot flushes are still occurring but far less frequently. Skin and hair is starting to feel and look better but crucially, I have not had a migraine for 6 weeks which has to be the longest time lapse for over a year. I was getting them as frequent as every two weeks! The key has also been being able to manage stress and not putting myself into any sort of stressful situation which has really helped. Sleep isn’t great at the moment. Averaging around 5 hours per night so need to work on this. I have ordered another two months of the tablets so fingers crossed, further changes will start to occur. Struck down with a heavy head cold this week so not feeling my best. Drinking some nice organic hot honey and lemon to relieve symptoms. Still loving your classes Anna. They really do keep me going throughout the week and have helped towards building a great level of fitness. I am now about to go up to a 4kg weight as 3 isn’t cutting it for me anymore!!!
👍🙏💪

Anna Messaged me just in time, as I was starting to feel very low from the onset side effects of peri-menopause, not being able to get to classes and no get up and go to sort this out for myself.
I am so glad I now have 1:1 personal training with Anna, as she has helped me to:
- Get hydrated
- Be more mindful about what I eat
- See great improvements in my tone and strength
- Be mindful of how I run
I now have great stamina in my running too
Thank you Anna

THANK YOU NESSI FOR FOLLOWING MY CLASSES ONLINE AND USING THE RECORDING AROUND YOUR SCHEDULE
I love Anna’s classes. Of all the classes I’ve done in my time, nothing quite gets my body in as good a shape as Anna’s classes - it’s her focus on the core. I remember going on holiday after 4 months of Anna’s classes and my friend saying “Wow, someone’s really been working on you!” I like to feel that I’ve really used myself every session and Anna mixes it up, throws in a challenge or new move every time to keep you motivated. I like her Pilates based approach as I know that everything is good for my posture, core and balance. There’s lots of free stuff on line but nothing I’ve found like Anna’s classes…. so I like to pay a little and get big results!
