We’re beginning this January with a 7-Day Pilates Challenge 🤍 The challenge is simple, just show up for yourself each day and do 20 minutes of movement with me. To ease into it together, we’ll start with a gentle prep session followed by 20 minutes a day for 7 days.

Now I remember wearing these back in the 80's when I was a teenage dance student running around London auditioning for West End Shows! Ease of movement was key as a dancer and unitards ( or catsuits as we called them ) were both cheap and easy to throw on for the day.
