What are you up to this Summer?

Hi All,

 

Welcome to Summer!  FINALLY!!   I've got a few exciting things to tell you about in this edition of the newsletter.    

 

A HUGE Congratulations to Carol Illsley who is now officially a certified Pilates Instructor.  Acing her exams, Carol is now ready to start helping all of you to change your life!  For the summer she will be on the schedule 3 days a week for private lessons, she will be teaching all of the Wednesday evening classes, and she will be covering any classes of mine while I am either on vacation or in Boston for more training of my own.

 

The article about Precision Pilates was published in Here Weekly and is online for your reading pleasure!  Please check it out!


A couple of the Precision Pilates regulars have started a summer fitness pool that costs $10 to enter but could win you almost $200!  All of the information about it is below, including Precision Pilates part in it by donating an equal part to the winners share to a charity of their choice, if 30% of their weekly exercise is done in my studio!   Thank you Melissa for keeping us motivated during the season of BBQ's and Beers!  

 

A little house keeping as well in this issue.   I am asking all of you to wash off any sunscreen or bug dope that you have on your skin before coming to class.  The chemicals in both of these items can damage the finish on mats and equipment.   Even if you applied early in the morning and are coming to an evening class, there will be enough residue on your skin when you begin to sweat to potentially damage the mats.  I thank you all for your cooperation in this matter.

 

Finally, before I sign off from this edition of the newsletter, I want you all to have a great summer.   I know that many of you take a break from your regular workouts and from your Pilates in the summer time because you are involved in other activities and go on vacations.   Please keep in mind that your body is not on vacation and it needs as much attention, if not more, this time of year as ever.  Make time for your body and your mind during these hot days and continue your regular Pilates routine.  Your spirit, sanity and summer bodies will thank you! 

 


Yours in Health,

Cara Berube

Summer Fitness Pool

By: Melissa Dawe


Are you having a hard time getting motivated to exercise this summer?  Do you have fitness goals (walking, running, swimming, Pilates, yoga, etc) but just can't seem to get off the couch?  You're not alone.
 
Let's add some spice to your summer workouts - a fitness pool.  It costs $10 to get into the pool.  All you have to do is track the minutes that you exercise per week this summer.  The pool will begin on June 22 (but you can sign up anytime up until July 13) and will end on September 7.  The person who logs the best weekly average for the summer will win 60% of the pot.  The person who increases their weekly exercise average the most over the summer will win the remaining 40% of the money.
 
Cara has graciously upped the ante.  If the winner has spent 30% of their exercise time at Precision Pilates, Cara will donate the amount won to the winner's charity of choice.
 
Each week you will receive an email update.  You will submit your "numbers" and anything else you want posted (recipes, favourite workouts, websites) and we'll compile the weekly e-mail update.
 
If you're a walker, runner, swimmer, rower, gym-goer or Pilates fanatic this is for you!
 

If you're interested - just let Melissa know at smelly.dawe@gmail.com

 
Here's to a summer of fun, fitness and being totally fabulous!  Get off your butt and start moving!

We always hear about celebrities using Pilates to get their bodies in shape.  Carrie-Ann Moss, Victoria Beckham, Pippa Middleton, Jennifer Aniston and the list goes on. 

Have you ever wondered about famous people using Pilates to help them PERFORM better and not just LOOK better?  

Here is a peak at some pro athletes that use Pilates to make sure they always bring their 'A-game'.

- Tiger woods, Rich Beem - PGA

- Jason Kidd, Kobe Bryant - NBA

- David Beckham - Soccer

- Curt Schilling - MLBA

The New Jersey Nets have Pilates equipment in their weight training rooms and often have some sent on the road with them for away games.   SMART bunch of athletes!
 

Summer Schedule starts July 4th 


Just a reminder that the schedule will be changing slightly for July and August so check and be sure that you are registered for the classes you want.  

The evening classes are very popular and often full.   If you want to get into a particular time slot, use the 'waitlist' feature if the class is already booked.  Often times there are cancellations the day of a class that allow most wait list clients in.

We've added a 7am Tower class on Wednesdays.   We had lots of people asking for early morning classes, so be sure to sign up soon!

There are 2 Pilates Enduro Classes on the Schedule for the summer, with only a few spots remaining in each.  July 25 and August 20.  Register NOW!
