I start Pilates classes today! A gal offers them at work on Mondays and Wednesdays.  |

Oh, wow, that's convenient! I should start doing my pilates dvd workout again. This week I had carpet cleaners coming on Wednesday so Tuesday I moved all of the moveable furniture out of the front of the apartment and then Wednesday put it back! I say that definitely counts, lol. Tonight, though, I guess it's back to the stationery bike!

I finally got back to class last night. I felt stiff and out of shape - it's amazing how quickly everything leaves and how long it takes to build it back up. My plan for July is to take class as often as I can and do my stretching or other videos on the off days, aiming for five days a week of activity. I'm curious to see if four weeks of concerted effort makes any noticeable difference, particularly in my flexibility.

My class options may be as few as two, possibly three. I think one of my evening classes is being canceled.  We'll see what happens. I heard about a Saturday morning class that might not be too hard for me, but that studio is closed for a month (or the summer even, not sure). Maybe in the fall I can give that one a try. |

I went to a Pilates class today.  Finally; I have been AWOL on the exercise front. |

I got in three classes his week, but its downhill from here for a while. Next week - one class. Following week - no classes at my usual studios so I may have to see what else I can find.
Once August rolls around I may be able to increase things again, and I also scheduled a private with one of my teaches for later in August, to wrap up the summer.

I got back to class last night after two weeks off. I'm hoping for two more this week.

I made it to the gym once this week. I guess that's better than nothing.

I took class last night and have a 30-minute private lesson this morning. I'm taking class Friday and may try a new class on Wednesday. I was going to try it last week but ended up not going. I'd like to have three classes to count on so that in busier weeks I can at least get to one or two of them.

I did make it to the new class last night and knew three people in it, so it didn't feel quite so hard to walk in "cold" as a newbie. I even got two compliments! I won't let it go to my head, lol.   hee hee hee No workout for me this week; and I really needed it. |

I had an ideal week - three classes plus a private lesson. It can't always be like that (I can't go to class this coming Wednesday, for example) but it was great to have a full week. |

I had a pretty good class last night, though my head was kind of spacey. I think being back to work wore me out mentally!  I'll go back to class this Friday - have to miss Wednesday's class for a work obligation. |

Did some jogging yesterday when it was sunny. The other fun thing I've been doing recently is a wonderful class that my local yoga studio offers on Friday evenings that's a restorative yoga session. It focuses on gentle stretching and relaxing meditations. A beautiful way to end the week.  |

Hi Sandra - welcome to DivaTribe. Your Friday yoga sounds wonderful! My Friday ballet kind of serves the same purpose for me. It's a great way for me to wind down the week and begin the weekend. |
