IN MOTION | Summer Edition
In Motion...
Hello Beautiful Dancers 💛
Summer is win full swing, and it could not be more summary than this! A season of sunshine, holidays, lighter evenings and, for many of us, a welcome change of pace.
While routines often become a little less structured during the summer months, I'd like to invite you to see this season a little differently.
Rather than pressing pause on your wellbeing, what if summer became the season where you invest in yourself?
Whether you're a teacher enjoying a well-earned break, spending time with family, travelling, or simply slowing life down a little, every walk, every dance, every stretch and every mindful breath is an investment in the healthier, stronger version of you that will carry you into autumn and winter. I'd love to continue sharing this journey with you.
📅 Summer Class Breaks
Our classes will continue throughout the summer, with just a few planned breaks while I take some time to recharge (because even your coach needs a little sunshine! ☀️).
Please make a note of the following dates when there will be no classes:
Thursday 23rd July
Friday 24th July
Monday 27th July
Thursday 20th August
Friday 21st August
Monday 24th August
Monday 31st August
Please don't worry if you're away on holiday for a week or two. Summer is all about finding a rhythm that works for you. Whether you join us every week or simply drop in when you can, you'll always receive a warm Wellbeing in Motion welcome. 💛
☀️ Summer Bring-a-Friend Gift
Summer is always better when shared!
Throughout July and August, every member can bring TWO guests FREE each month.
Perhaps you know someone who:
💛 Has fallen out of their exercise routine.
💛 Is looking for something uplifting during the school holidays.
💛 Wants to reduce stress and reconnect with themselves.
💛 Has always said, "I'd love to come one day..."
This is the perfect opportunity to invite them along and experience what our community is all about.
💃 What's New? Introducing Solo Latino
One of the things I love most is continually learning and bringing fresh ideas into our community.
This summer, you'll notice a new element appearing in some of our classes — Solo Latino.
Don't worry... this isn't about becoming a dancer or memorising choreography!
The idea is simply to introduce enjoyable Latin-inspired movement patterns that gently challenge our coordination, rhythm and confidence.
Learning new movement patterns helps keep both the body and mind active. It encourages greater body awareness, improves balance and coordination, and gradually builds the confidence to move with more freedom and expression.
The heart of Wellbeing in Motion remains exactly the same. There is never an expectation to "get it right." You will always be encouraged to move in a way that feels right for your own body.
Think of Solo Latino as another tool that helps us build the foundations for joyful, expressive movement, allowing us to feel more connected, more playful and more at ease in ourselves.
As always, take what serves you and simply enjoy the experience.

🌞 Summer Wellbeing Corner
Hot weather can be wonderful, but it also asks us to slow down and care for ourselves a little differently.
Here are a few simple reminders:
💧 Drink water little and often throughout the day.
🍉 Enjoy water-rich foods such as watermelon, cucumber and berries.
🌳 Move during the cooler parts of the day whenever possible.
🌬️ Try cooling breathing techniques such as Sheetali or Sheetkari Pranayama. These gentle yogic breathing practices can help calm the nervous system and create a natural cooling sensation during warmer days.
🤍 Most importantly, listen to your body. Some days call for high energy. Others ask for softness, slower movement and rest. Both are equally valuable.
🎶 Playlist of the Month
Music is at the heart of everything we do, so each month I'll be sharing a curated playlist to support your wellbeing beyond class.
🎵 Gentle Awakening – uplifting music to ease you into the day. Playlist
🔥 Peak Energy – feel-good tracks for walking, dancing and lifting your mood. Playlist
🌿 Mind Restoring – calming music to help you slow down and reset. Playlist
🌙 Cool Down & Release – peaceful rhythms for stretching, breathing and unwinding.

💛 A Little Thought From Me
Every season teaches us something different.
Summer reminds us that wellbeing doesn't have to be perfect or complicated. Sometimes it's simply choosing to move your body, smile at someone, dance to your favourite song, or take a deep breath before the day begins.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey.
Every class we share together is something I never take for granted, and I'm incredibly excited for everything we'll continue to build together over the coming months.
Here's to a summer filled with movement, laughter, connection and joy.
With love and gratitude,
Simona 💛
