Why did you start Reformer Pilates?
I was doing “Fit for 40″and was looking for something more challenging than the Peloton bike. I’d seen Chloe Lewis from TOWIE on the “Instagram” doing Reformer Pilates and googled it, Anasa Pilates popped up! 🙂.
Then Ash (my husband) started as he had massive FOMO…
What is your key motivation for coming to our studio?
Initially, it’s because I want to master this new skill that looks so simple when done by George or Margs, but it’s not!!
It’s mentally and physically challenging and the more classes you do the more addictive you become!
After a few weeks your body begins to change and the mirrors in the studio become your friend a little lol!
The first 10 classes are a real challenge,11-20 you become stronger and comfortable on the reformer, 21-30 you have a new body and more energy. 30 plus and you’ve found loads of new friends.
What changes have you seen in your life since you started Reformer Pilates in Anasa?
We’ve always been active, if we weren’t on the peloton we would be doing hot yoga or going to the gym. Reformer Pilates has given us both more energy and I have never been this strong from any other training I have done! I always lookforward to coming!
Oh and Ash thinks he is funnier than he was before!
Which is your favourite Class?
I love FUSION, Ash loves any class that I find difficult and Sweat & Sculpt.
We also did the BOOST!, which honestly everyone should do before they go on holiday, we both noticed a big difference in muscle definition.
Best, funniest or most weird /awkward moment in the studio ?
Batman and Robin is definitely up there, but we also did Sweat & Sculpt one HOT Saturday morning in the summer when it was too hot to sit outside the pub with a cold drink!!
We did a 50 mins of Sweat & Sculpt (most people cancelled there was 3 of us) with George who was sweating just teaching and Ash almost brought his banana back up.
What ANASA means for you?
I think the big bonus is the community Margarita and George are building at Anasa Pilates and I’m sure it’s the reason why so many of us keep coming back for more torture.
P.s the Peloton was sold, never to be seen again 😊😊
