As those of you who are taking my pregnancy classes know, I am a huge fan of using birthing balls during your pregnancy, labour and birth. I strongly advice all students to get a ball as soon as they know that they are pregnant and spend as much time on it as possible. Use your ball at home, relaxing, watching TV, at your desk, at your kitchen table and use that ball to ease any back pressure. Don't forget to use your ball for your daily exercises too!

Marilyn Monroe: Yoga Superstar By MindBodyGreen Not only did Marilyn Monroe crank out inspirational wisdom, but she also got her yoga on. Seems like the spirit of Marilyn is in the air as we've seen lots of Marilyn yoga photos floating around the internet the past few days. Did you know that Marilyn learned yoga from Indra Devi, who many consider to be the "The First Lady of Yoga"? At any rate, Marilyn Monroe was a yogi!

I’m a fan of Jennifer
Aniston's abs and yoga.
When you combine the two in Yogalates (Yogalates Classes Dublin Tuesday &
Wednesday 18.15), it works our midsections. In this video, learn from Jennifer’s
trainer Mandy a mixture of yoga and tummy sculpting moves featuring three poses
with variations. Ditch the crunches and join a Yogalates Class NOW!!!

For all my diligent Pilates and Yogalates students, here is a link to a great You Tube video 7 minute abs. Introduced to me by my sister Kate this weekend, I was surprised how challenging and comprehensive it was. Tony (the trainer) recommends doing it 3-4 times per week. He gives great instruction and motivation throughout the 7 minute routine. Roll out your mat and give it a try NOW! Let me know what you think…. If this wets your appetite, join me for Yogalates or Pilates classes in Dublin Holistic Centre, Dublin 2. |

Check out below what moves Women's Health magazine are recommending for your abs.
Women's Health are recommending Yogalates moves. They say;
"Devotees develop hard-core abs, thanks to Pilates, in addition to the supreme posture and balance benefits of yoga. Learn the basics and explore the benefits with this three-move ab routine for newbies."
We have been running Yogalates classes for the past three years and numbers of students are increasing with each new term. |

January is a month where you e will finds most fitness classes booked out, full of enthusiastic people, all eager to try something new. With this in mind, how do you know what to look for.
