Online: I'm online 24/7; simply peruse the list of Pilates videos and fit your choice to your mood! Email me to set you up.

The RAD: As you receive this, in your Sunday inbox, I will be on my way to the RAD Members' Day. I am so excited to be presenting a class in the Linbury studio at noon; connecting with members all over the world. Do follow me on instagram @wendyjardinepilates - I will also be delighted to connect again with my regulars this Monday at 1250, in the Jo Manoukian studio for our second of nine sessions this term.  If you would like to join us, please email me. If you would like to apply for summer school, please apply directly to The RAD.  I will be teaching Pilates for the following summer schools:  Adult Ballet & Pilates Summer School 8-9 pm Monday 14 July - Friday 18 July; Junior Summer School Monday 21 July - Saturday 26 July; Senior Summer School Monday 11 August - Saturday 16th August; Summer Intensive Vocational Syllabus Course Monday 18 August - Friday 22 August.

Cue the Move: Have you thought about our very own a to e of connection yet, today?  C for connection?  Try feeling it when you fully exhale and go from there.  How about adding a move; extend through your back, perhaps?  Breathe, Connect, Move.  We'll do some in class this week.  Keeping our upper backs strong and fluid, so we're supported throughout our days.  

Please note this unchanged list of term-times:

Our regular schedule runs until Thursday 17th July - with a half-term:

No sessions during Half-term - Monday 26th May to 30th May - last sessions on Thursday 22nd May 

Sessions resume, after half-term, on Monday 2nd June and continue until Thursday 17th July

Summer Holiday 21 July - 31 August - Sessions resume on Monday 1st September

There will be random zooms during the summer holidays.

Contacting me via email is preferred: - If I don't respond within 48 hours, it is definitely an oversight - please resend your email - I love connection, as you know, and I look forward to connecting with you.

News: This week's treat is to make my way to the SS Robin's Pontoon, Trinity Buoy Wharf, E14 0JW to see Shining A Light. The Artist in Residence, Emily Jo Gibbs, is connected to many of us, as a Pilates pal.  She is an internationally renowned artist. Emily is interested in the idea that, "by taking the time to slowly describe someone in stitch, you convey your admiration." As well as connecting with Emily for many years through our Pilates, I love seeing her exquisite work on instagram @emilyjogibbs. So, if you haven't connected with her work yet, you might like to click on the link and see for yourselves? The Exhibition is open 14-18 May 11am-5pm, with Drop-in workshops 17-18 May 2-4pm. Meanwhile, I'm loving the wisteria on my house. Thanks to my diligent neighbour's pruning and trimming skills, the wisteria is in full bloom and thriving, with the MOST marvellous scent. My al fresco east facing morning coffee at sunrise, just gets better and better at this time of year! 

Breathe Connect Move

Very best wishes, Wendy
