Well, I was inspired by two things this week: a Radio 4 programme, called Inside Health, that was on air as I drove back from teaching a Chair Yoga class in Westleton; and, the very next day, at the end of my Strengthen class, a mature participant exclaiming how she had re-discovered the joys of walking after joining the local ramblers group.

It's never too late (and you're never too old) to join one of my classes. Go to the Exercise page on this blog to find out more about the classes I teach. If you'd like to have a 15 minute call with me, we can discuss how you may move forward. Contact me by email to book your call
