How to just get started with Pilates

So I stepped into Sainsbury’s this morning to an onslaught of clashing red and pink hearts, chocolate everywhere, ALL the roses.

That faintly sickening sight reminded me that we’re already getting to the middle of February (they say January never ends, but now I’m not really sure where it went?!).

If you feel like time’s flying too and you’ve realised you STILL haven’t really got round to that resolution you made nearly six weeks ago now, I’d love to help you throw yourself in.

Last year I heard something interesting on one of Maisie Hill’s coaching calls (look her up, she’s fab!) – it’s a simple concept called “messy, imperfect action”.

You see, when it comes to goal-setting, it can be so tempting to put off getting started until you’re in the “perfect” situation.

You’ll do a workout once you’ve cleared that room out and bought all the kit…

Or once you’ve got enough hours of sleep in the bank to feel up to a bit of activity…

“I’ll get to it as soon as the housework’s sorted and the kids are at school…”

The thing is, life is busy, it’s messy, time goes quickly, and if you wait for things to be “just right” before you start, it’ll never happen.

So why not forget waiting for the right time and give my latest Pilates video a try?

The video’s not perfect, it’s a little rough around the edges, but it’s something you can just give a go right now – all you need is a bit of space on the floor.
