Cardio and Advanced Pilates from Adele x

Adele accepts that Pilates is much more of a challenge for men (something to do with not having to make an effort with tummy after childbirth?) but she makes every allowance for this and is very encouraging of her male attendees. Adele’s classes are the sole reason why I have not seized up altogether. I moan to myself, and anyone else who will listen, before each Pilates class but in truth I feel much better at the end. Adele is forever supportive, consistently professional and amazingly cheerful at every class. It is an hour well spent away from whatever else is going on in your world. (And where else would you pay but £7 for an hour to lay on the floor with a whole loan of lovely women!)

Unlike rich dining, copious drinking and sex (well at least for someone my age) Pilates is one activity where one feels better afterwards than before. Adele is very professional and her classes really are enjoyable, the hour just slips by. A small word of warning to people thinking of joining one of Adele’s classes; numbers are not her strongest skill. An exercise that comprise “a left” and “a right” counts as one rather than two! When she says that there are ten more moves to do, there will be at least eleven and fourteen is not unknown! When very occasionally there needs to be a change of venue, the [prudent][perfect] attendee should always double-check!
