Day 1 of the Summer Series 2024 is all about the Fundamentals. We'll be flowing through some familiar exercises to get you ready in body and mind for the Series ahead.

Day 2! We'll be connecting to our core in today's class with some deep strengthening work. From planks to curl ups to deadbugs, there's plenty going on in this class!

Today brings a focus on the obliques with plenty of side bends and twists, and also some hip strengthening work. We'll finish with a mermaid stretch which is my favourite stretch for the side body. You can use a band or hand weights if you like, to add a little extra to the standing side bends too.

Day 4 brings all the stretchy loveliness! Bring a band and a soft Pilates ball if you have them. You might also want to use a cushion or folded towel for extra comfort. Light your candles, turn the lights down and enjoy this time on your mat.

For Day 5 we'll be giving the lower body some love. We start in standing with footwork, then continue with squats, lunges and scooters before coming down to the mat for some hip mobility, bridges and a lovely hip stretch.

Hello arms! Grab a pair of hand weights for this class - approx 1kg are fine but whatever you have handy. You can do the class without weights if you prefer. We'll be working on strength and mobility in the shoulders with some lovely controlled movements, and a little weight bearing too. Finishing with a stretch at the end. Enjoy!

Welcome to your Fundamentals Flow II class. We've already done Fundamentals Flow I on Day 1 of the Summer Series and today on Day 7 we up the ante a little! Expect a stronger class, but don't forget you can modify or take breaks whenever you need to. Enjoy Day 7!

For Day 8 we'll be working in standing. Lots of strength and mobility work for the lower body, including the feet, but we'll also squeeze in some upper body work too.

For Day 9 we focus on the back! Hand weights are optional for this class, so bring some along if you have them. We'll be working on mobility and strength, with some lovely chest openers to finish.
