On November 12th 2007, the doors to my very own studio Pure Yoga Pilates will open! This dream of mine became a reality earlier this year, when I returned to State College & decided the time was right to have my own space.

At the same time East coast Health & Fitness asked me my thoughts about a Mind & Body Studio - well say no more,
Pure Yoga Pilates Studio was born!

After lots of building in many ways, the studio is about to open its doors for the first time & I am very excited. The studio is a beautiful, peaceful & nurturing space - very light & the perfect place to focus from within. With mirrors, spot lighting, padded wood flooring & high quality equipment, the studio definitely has a city feel to it.

The studio will offer the best in cutting edge Mind & Body Fitness classes, with all the current trends in classes & equipment. Alongside Stott Reformers, there will be Pilates Sculpting with Magic Circles, Therabands & small fitness Toning Balls. The studio will offer Speciality Training for Teens, Men & Athletic Sports Team Training. With classes targeting Beginners & those seeking to build mind & body fitness in to their current exercise routine. The studio has something to offer everyone!

Class cards are available to purchase at the front desk of East Coast Health & Fitness, or you can pay per class. Private lessons or Semi Private Lessons are other options available to you at the Studio too.

The studio is open to everyone, Members & Non Members of East Coast Health & Fitness. The studio is located within the rear of the club, in the new expansion.

Studio Etiquette:
• All shoes & socks are removed for classes - stored in the cubbies or the locker room
• All Bags need to be clear from the studio floor - stored in the cubbies or the locker room

Can't believe it has been a whole year since I wrote, where did it go?

At last my 1st DVD PureYogaPilates is here for you, I hope it fulfills all your expectations, please give me your feedback, and as I prepare to film my 2nd title, let me know what you would like to see from me in the future!

I am currently living in the UK with My Husband Jamie & Son Samuel who is 17 months old and so much fun. Motherhood just gets better each and every day. I await his singing and chatting voice every single morning!

Happy Thanksgiving to you all in the USA, and as Christmas approaches try to keep stress free & take a moment to pause each day and breathe. Something that is so simple, yet if we did this small task, we would approach situations a little calmer and with a clearer mind.

I hope to be in the USA again early next year, and who knows where the future will take me, life is constantly evolving and I like to go with the flow of what feels right.. USA again, watch this space!

The UK is wonderful at the moment, I am enjoying spending quality time with family and friends, decorating the house, re-painting walls and making it feel like home! The bulldogs Lucy and George are snoring in front of the fire as I write, Sam is tucked up in bed and I have a perfect cup of Tea! What could be more Blissful!

Something to take with you from me until next time, which I promise will not be a whole year....

Converse with Nature
Smile with the flower & the green grass,
Play with the birds & the deer,
Shake hands with the ferns & twigs,
Talk to the rainbow, wind, stars & the sun,
Converse with the running brook
And the waves of the sea,
Develop friendships with all your neighbours,
Dogs,cats, trees & flowers.
Then you will truly have a wide, perfect & full life!

Namaste - Peace to you all my friends... Stay in touch

I'm back in PA after visiting the UK for two months. I will be mainly in the USA for the next few years, but spending time in the UK too, with our baby Samuel. My DVD is currently with VAS Distribution, in the final stages as I tie up the loose ends. It will be available shortly. Sorry for the long wait. It feels like a lifetime since I filmed it, but it's definitely on its way!

Motherhood is wonderful, and far more amazing than I ever could have imagined. Samuel is truly amazing. Here he is at five months!

I am back to teaching a little. Check out my revised schedule for more information.

Thanks for all of your feedback on the site & keep checking back for the news on the DVD.

Namaste,
Kerry
