Thank you for being patient with me last week, having had a week of illness I am gradually getting back to my normal self – not 100% still but fingers crossed a few more days and I will be back to full speed.

This Friday 20/10/23 I will again be supporting “WEAR IT PINK’ so please wear as much pink (or as close as) to my Friday classes (face to face & online) and I will be donating class fees to Breast Cancer UK.

 

 

 

 

Remember this time of year we need to get a good balance of keeping warm and moving. It’s so easy to be succumbed by the dark nights and cooler temperatures but it is so important to keep the body and mind nurtured… whatever that may be whether doing some Yoga/Pilates, having a boogie, toning & strengthening or simply going for a walk!

 

 

 

Another strong group of dances on Strictly this week so, so much to discuss – ย join me Tuesday morning online or Thursday am or pm to dance and talk all things Strictly ๐Ÿ™‚

MESSAGES & FITNESS QUESTIONNAIRES

If on Gymcatch you are getting โ€˜add required infoโ€™ when you want to book onto a class, this will only appear if you havenโ€™t completed my Fitness Questionnaire/Participation Questionnaire. I have been gradually inputting everyones dates and chasing those who need to submit a new form. Once the dates have been added you will no longer get this prompt (until 12 months has passed)! If you havenโ€™t submitted a form in the last 12 months, please complete the form via the link on Gymcatch โ€“ see profile page (one for Yoga & Pilates, one for Fitsteps & Zumba) ๐Ÿ™‚ Thank you x
VALUE YOUR SPACE

Something good that came out of COVID … give people space. All my classes have a capped number so that everyone can enjoy the class, I really dislike turning people away and I am lucky to work in some lovely spaces. but please value your space, don’t be squashed in a class like a sardine!!!

CLASS LEVELS

All my class on my timetable and gymcatch will suggest what level suitable for; All, beginners-improvers, intermediate (have experience in) – these are guidances to help people determine which class is right… if you are unsure or want advice please contact me ๐Ÿ™‚

Reviews are so important to anyone running a small business, so if you would like to leave me a review, have a spare 5 minutes – either on my ‘Aby Kate Classes page’ on Facebook, or if you would prefer to send me a written review that’s also fine as I can add this to my website testimonials ๐Ÿ™‚
