……………Laurette's Pilates Workout……………

Archive for August, 2009

Want to take an antenatal fitness course of some sort for the last 2 months of my pregnancy, beginning mid to late October.

Good idea.

Your GP (and indeed your local surgery generally) should also be able to help if you give them a call, I’d start there. Perhaps you have!

Netmumms are usually pretty good for this sort of thing, but I see they have missing links in their Northumberland page. Typical! Try emailing them through the link below.

Lastly I’ve found another Yoga site for you, but it seems a little neglected. It may be that Samantha has been busy. Give her a shout and see if she can help, she sounds friendly. (Second link below). It looks like her addy is yoga@northumberlandyoga.co.uk – although I see no phone number.

I hope that helps. Good luck!

My husband is a cabinetmaker; and he wants to construct a pilates reformer for me. I’m not well and can’t leave the house to exercise. Any information would be most appreciated.

I think you would be much better off buying one. Pilates Reformers are finely tuned pieces of equipment … it would be like trying to build a street racing bicycle.

Even cheap reformers can be very dangerous to use, it’s worth it to invest in a top quality piece of equipment AND hire a trained Pilates instructor to work with you on it.

Since Pilates has gotten so popular, the rate of Pilates injuries has gone way up … it is very important to do the exercises correctly … especially if you have health problems. Be careful!

I need some sweat! I only do walking right now, and need something more! Something simple and fun would be great, I already have the mat! I am thirty something and not overweight, but could stand to lose a pound or ten…inexpensive is a plus.
