COVID-19 policy and supplementary terms and conditions

Due to current guidelines surrounding COVID-19, the following policies and supplementary terms and conditions apply in addition to our standard terms and conditions for 1-2-1s and classes.

Policy for classes

  1. You must not attend class if you are unwell and/or suffering from any symptoms of Covid-19 or tested positive for coronavirus in the past 10 days or live with someone who has tested positive in the past 14 days. 
  2. On arrival at the class venue, you will be invited to either use the hand sanitiser or wash your hands.
  3. All equipment for your use will be either freshly cleaned or where cleaning is not possible or practicable, it will have been in “quarantine” for a minimum of 48 hours.  You are welcome to bring your own equipment.  I should be grateful if you would tell me in advance that you are doing so and what you plan to bring.
  4. Masks or face coverings are not advised for exercise classes.
  5. The doors will all be open when you arrive and I will close the main door once everyone is in!
  6. Where the weather permits, we will have a window open.
  7. The mats will be placed so that there is a 2-metre distance between each one. For now, I will not provide hands-on guidance.
  8. At the end of the session, I will reopen the doors and you will be invited to either wash your hands or use the hand sanitiser provided.
  9. Please bring a bottle of water with you. 

If you or anyone in your family is currently in the moderate risk (clinically vulnerable) category for Covid-19, please let me know. 

Policy for 1-2-1s

  1. You will be asked to confirm the day before that you are well and not suffering from any symptoms of Covid-19, that you have not been tested positive for coronavirus in the past 10 days and do not live with someone who has tested positive in past 14 days.  If you feel unwell at that stage or at any time before the appointment you should email or WhatsApp me to postpone the appointment.
  2. Before your arrival, all touchpoints will be cleaned.  All equipment for your use will be either freshly cleaned or where cleaning is not possible or practicable, it will have been in “quarantine” for a minimum of 48 hours.  You are welcome to bring your own equipment.  I should be grateful if you would tell me in advance that you are doing so and what you plan to bring.
  3. When you arrive, you will be invited to either wash your hands (in which case a clean towel will be provided for you to dry them on) or use the hand sanitiser provided.
  4. I will open and close doors as required!
  5. You may leave your shoes at the front door.  The chair at the entrance will have been sanitised prior to your arrival for your use, if you wish.
  6. Where the weather permits, we will have a window open.
  7. The mats will be placed so that we can have a 2-metre distance between us as we talk and then as I teach you different movements.  I believe that our session can be effectively carried out in this way, but should I need to come closer than 1 metre I will wear a mask and visor.
  8. Masks or face coverings are not advised for exercise.
  9. At the end of the session, I will reopen the doors for you and you will be invited to either wash your hands or use the hand sanitiser provided.
  10. Please bring a bottle of water with you.  According to the guidelines, I can only offer you a disposable cup or bottle and I really do not want to be increasing single-use plastic waste!

If you or anyone in your family is currently in the moderate risk (clinically vulnerable) category for Covid-19, please let me know. 

As such, you will be asked to confirm the following the day before arriving for your appointment the following:

  1. Have you or anyone in your household shown any of the following symptoms in the last 7 days (a high temperature, a new continuous cough, or a lost or change to your sense of smell or taste)?  If yes, please confirm whether it is you or a member of your household.
  2. Have you been tested positive for coronavirus in the past 10 days or has anyone in your household tested positive in past 14 days
  3. Have you recently travelled abroad and arrived back in the past 14 days?  If yes, please confirm which country and whether you were required to self-isolate on return.
  4. Please confirm that you will contact me if you or anyone in your household develops symptoms associated with Covid-19 within 7 days of your session.
  5. If anything changes between now and your appointment, please confirm that you will let me know in advance of your appointment and postpone it or ask to transfer it to Zoom where appropriate.

Policy for Women Who Walk Events

  2. We will be leaving fairly promptly after the start time to ensure that we’re not gathering in a large group.
  3. Walkers to maintain a social distance of 1 metre plus at all times.

I love this from @mellow.doodles. We get more of I love this from @mellow.doodles.

We get more of our freedoms back tomorrow.  However you’re feeling about it, use this opportunity to intentionally design your life going forward. 

What part of lockdown (if any of it) suited you?  What part of your pre-lockdown life will stay there?  What are you desperate to get back to?

I’m leaving the rushing around as much as possible in the past.  I’m going straight back to the shops tomorrow.  And I’ll be in the hairdressers within a week!

Happy Easter! 🐣 We’ve been baking hot cross Happy Easter! 🐣 

We’ve been baking hot cross buns and a hot cross loaf - a la @jamieoliver.  Eating eggs benedict royale pancakes from @bbcgoodfood and going on the local Hamlets Easter Egg trail where we saw a giant white bunny and the children came home clutching more eggs!  We’re taking advantage of gaining some of our freedoms back and meeting up with friends and family.  All in all a great long weekend, just a little chilly 🥶. Please sun come back!

What are you up to?

Happy international women’s day! The theme thi Happy international women’s day! 

The theme this year of #choosetochallenge is particularly appropriate for those working in my industry as we challenge the outdated methods for and opinions on women’s health.  I encourage my clients to look inside themselves for the answers again, to trust that their bodies and their minds know what is right for them.  We’ve spent so long being told that someone else, a professional, a company, a government, an organisation knows more about us than we do and it’s time we started to take that power back.

I have had the honour to learn from, work with, be friends with, support and be supported by some truly inspirational women since I started my own business. Here are a few!

@thelaurenohayon who trained me as a Restore Your Core teacher and gave me the tools to heal my core and pelvic floor issues as well as changing my relationship to my body.

@heartandbonesyoga (Brea and Kat) who I completed my sustainable yoga teacher training with and continued to challenge my thoughts and my perceptions.

@thrivewithsamdixon who has provided me with so much marketing and business support plus created @thrivecollectiveclub which has connected me with an amazing mostly local support network of women in business.

@katenorthrup who is challenging the work harder, do more narrative in favour of working smarter and in collaboration with our energy, our cycles and the cyclical nature of life. 

And each of these women have connected me to many more amazing supportive women in their online communities.

I will choose to challenge for those who came before me and those who come after me, particularly for my daughters.

Here’s to strong women.  May we know them. May we be them.  May we raise them.

I love books 📚.... I would even go as far as to I love books 📚.... I would even go as far as to say that I’m a book addict.  The sense of joy I get from holding, reading, looking through and buying a book is pretty high up in my non-negotiables list!  I do not own and will never own a kindle or e-reader 😱.

I realised in my mid-twenties that I could no longer keep every fiction book that I bought and read because the already pretty big bookshelves in my one bedroom flat in London was seriously overloaded...but since then I have moved onto reading mostly non-fiction books and I find it seriously difficult to let go of these (you’ll rarely find me lending them out,  let alone selling or giving them away.  I make notes throughout the books as I read them, so i can easily flick through and find my favourite parts.  And I tend only to read books that have been recommended by people that I really trust on a subject or written by people who I have heard speak, so they tend all to be brilliant reads in my view!

In contrast with my love of books, for as long as I really took on board that world book day existed i have hated it 😬. I think I first really noticed it when my eldest started school and the dressing up (or the organising of dressing up things - the wasted (in my opinion) money, non-environmentally friendly fabrics/outfits and/or time) was not something I enjoyed.  One of the few benefits of lockdown is that this year we didn’t have to bother with the costumes (phew) and I got to see the video of my youngest daughter’s teacher dressed up as Granny Smoo from the Smeds and Smoos (love that book). Wow, what a brilliant effort she made.  I also learned this year that the reason the World Book Day charity was first set up was to make sure that no child grew up without owning a book.  In my own book rich life, it’s hard for me to imagine what is like to not own a book as a child and I can certainly celebrate any charity that seeks to rectify this. 

My library mostly consists of a huge library of cookbooks, movement books and wellbeing/self help/business books.

What fiction or non-fiction book(s) should I add to my must read list?
1st March - the daffodils 🌼 are out, the sun 🌞 is out.  Full-time school 🏫 at school starts again a week from today.  I definitely have a Spring in my step today!

I love all the seasons for their beauty and benefits, but after a lockdown in Winter, the arrival of Spring is definitely giving me feelings of hope for the future!

Oh and although we like to plan our years goals at the start of the calendar year, spring is the time to plan and initiate, so actually if you haven’t made any plans yet or set some goals and would like to set some, now would be a great time!

What’s your favourite season?
