I would say that you most certainly can take these classes everyday but it's about making choices. Firstly, if you are new to this kind of movement, I would go slow and start with the beginners/breathing tutorial/slow flow classes perhaps a few times a week just to see how your body feels and responds. It is normal to feel a bit of superficial muscle soreness but if pain/discomfort lingers for more than a few days then it's a sign that perhaps you have overdone it and might need a longer rest between. If you find that you have built up nicely to 2-3 times a week and the body feels open for more then certainly add to that routine. The body likes variety so where on one day you might do a higher intensity class the following day you might choose a more stretch based class or if you do a lower body class one day, the next do an upper body one etc. I find the more you move, the more you want and need to move! It's a healthy addiction... hope you love it!

Whilst they do come from very different places in time and stem from very different paths; one in body biomechanics, the other in spirituality; both are primarily about the mind body connection. Both encourage conscious movement and a return to the body so therefore why not practice both?! I believe that they complement each other wonderfully.

Hopefully from the first class you should feel a little more calm, mindful and relaxed in your mental state. The physical changes may take a little longer. It is about carving out a regular routine for yourself and as time goes on, bit by bit, you should feel the changes in your body; stronger and more mobile. From feeling the changes you will soon then see the changes! Leaner and more toned. "Just wanted to say that almost 1 week in and I am starting to feel the benefits of Pilates! I am definitely loosening up and feel less tension in my body!” - Ann-Marie April 2022

I remember that I first began to feel a connection to yoga when I started going to regular evening classes when I was at Laban. It was from then that yoga became a part of my movement practice. It was certainly sporadic at times and clockwork regular at others but it has remained a discipline that I have loved to practice and develop. Over the years, through travelling, house moves and holidays, I have experienced many different types of yoga from Kundalini to Ashtanga to Acroyoga to Iyengar but the style that most resonates with me is Vinyasa Flow. This may be because of it’s dance-like quality and the emphasis on creativity. I love the invitation it extends to really explore the postures in my own body, nurturing curiosity and play. Whilst I have always loved the physical practice of yoga, being honest, the spiritual side has resonated a lot more with me only latterly. In July 2020 I was diagnosed with the autoimmune condition; Graves disease; an overactive thyroid and have been struggling with a whole host of symptoms. I turned my attention inwards and have been on a real journey of self-discovery through holistic health practices such as Reiki, Homeopathy, Ayurvedic medicine, Cranialsacral therapy and made big adjustments to diet and lifestyle. Yoga was a vital part of this journey and this yogic philosophy and lifestyle was a great support to me. Through these health struggles along with covid lockdowns and a house move it kept me going and has helped me to heal but to also gain a new perspective on my life. I finally took the plunge in 2022 to embark on a yoga teacher training programme, qualifying as a Yoga Alliance 200 hour teacher.

Developed in the early part of the 20th century by Joseph Pilates, it is a type of mind body exercise. Specific muscles are targeted through the repetition of various exercises with the key principles such as breath, precision, control and concentration at the heart. The many benefits of practicing Pilates include improvement in alignment through increased body awareness, greater strength and flexibility, reduction of pain & fatigue and improvement in balance.

Movement has always been a huge part of my life. I started dancing at the age of 3 and continued all the way through to a 3-year BA (Hons) dance theatre degree at Laban in London, specialising in contemporary and ballet. From my mid-teens and throughout my degree I experienced quite a few injuries. At the time, I saw them as major setbacks, limiting me and in turn, knocking my confidence in my own body’s capabilities. It was at Laban that I experienced Pilates for the first time. The school had an amazing Pilates studio on site with even more amazing, inspiring and empathetic teachers that worked there. I ended up spending a lot of my time there; going to remedial sessions and in turn, learning a whole lot more about myself. I felt that these ‘set backs’ helped me to develop as a person, not just on a physical strength level but also helped me to mature mentally, learning how to cope and accept situations. Although I was predominantly practicing Pilates in this time, the wonderful faculty of the studio were trained and influenced by many other movement disciplines such as Girotonic, Body-Mind Centring, Alexander technique, Feldenkrais and Yoga and these blended into their teachings beautifully, offering a holistic, evolved approach. It was through my direct experience that I became fascinated with movement and therapy for injury rehabilitation and this prompted my desire to go deeper and learn how to help others so after graduating, I undertook an 18 month fulltime Pilates teacher training programme. I qualified at the end of 2011 and have enjoyed an informative, busy and rewarding 11 years of teaching mat and studio based Pilates in and around London.

Yoga was developed 5000 years ago for wellbeing on all levels. Besides the physical practice there is great emphasis on the mental, emotional and spiritual practice too. Physical postures and breathing techniques help to focus the mind and bring us to the present moment. There are many different types of yoga. Hannah teaches Hatha and Vinyasa Flow. There are many physical benefits of practicing yoga like improved strength and flexibility but there is also other benefits like improvement in mental health; relaxation, helping with anxiety or depression and improving energy and sleep.

This is only available to members over 18 years old and only after your 14 day free trial has ended. You must not share your password with them directly, instead they need to register to the website in the same way you did.

When signing up, they will be asked "Are you signing up through our Partner Programme, your Households HB Member or as an Individual?" your household member should select "Household HB Member", a dropdown will appear and they need to enter your name as it appears on your initial registration to Holistic Body Online.

Click any signup page links in the copy or click the "Member Login / Signup" button in the top right of the desktop page or mobile menu (three lines on top of each other). Enter your details, make sure you have read/agree to our "Terms/Privacy" policy. If prompted, verify your email address by clicking the link in the email sent to you.

We kindly request you only choose the HB: Offer £3.99 option if you currently work in public services or are requiring financial support.

An unlimited amount is the short answer. Depending on how you are going to use this service, you will need to estimate roughly how many accounts you'll need access for. For example this maybe part of an employee perks package or it could be a short run promotion gifted to customers. You decide (and we agree) how many authorised accounts you require access to. Once setup you can distribute your "Partner Hub" password to those people you decide. Typically, your access fee will be reflected in the amount of accounts you require, if this is difficult to estimate then for a small premium we can authorise "unlimited access". This works much like your phone's unlimited data plan, where unlimited means "unlimited within reason" and you are unlikely to breach a realistic threshold of accounts... but if you do of course we'll just let you know.

Initially when an potential partner reaches out we discuss their unique challenges or needs as an organisation, we'll be able to provide a demo "Partner Hub" to trial and "see whats under the hood" as they say. Then you decide how many authorised accounts you require and we will work out a monthly or annual fee depending on your preference. After we have agreed the fee we will issue a standard "Terms of Use" contract outlining the key details. If we haven't already, during the demo phase we will build your unique Partner Hub URL page, this is protected by a unique password (of your choice). From your private Holistic Body Hub, you will be guided to the "Player" page which hosts the video content alongside some tips on how to navigate it. You then communicate your password to your selected users along with your Holistic Body Online URL link. Before your authorised users can access the "Channel" content page they need to register their details with Holistic Body Online. This is to ensure we know who is using the site, they have agreed to our terms and privacy policy, this is an insurance requirement for us. Once registered users can head to the player page and enjoy unlimited access to all the fitness and wellbeing content. Your Holistic Body Hub password can be changed monthly, quarterly, annually or not at all.

Our Partner Programme allows organisations of any size to become users of Holistic Body Online, our video on-demand fitness and wellbeing service. We have designed the platform to offer a flexible, affordable and easy to use solution for organisations to access our content from anywhere in world, at any time, whenever their users need. Once setup, active Partners have their own "Holistic Hub", an exclusive, password protected, fully branded (if requested) page containing all the digital content. The service is primarily movement based, including Pilates and more recently Yoga as well. Other content includes guided meditations, breathing techniques, soundscapes, visualscapes and tutorials to help deepen users own practice.

It's very simple, you'll just need to change the Hub Page password to prevent access to the protected pages. We can also change the unique URL of your Holistic Body Hub as well at any time. New passwords and URL will need to be re-shared with your selected authorised users. Previous users will not need to re-register for an Holistic Body User account but new users to the Hub will need to register for the first time to gain access to the player page.

As a Holistic Body Partner you have full control over who you authorise to use the service. This includes for example (but is not limited to); employees, clients, volunteers, sponsors, hospitality guests and even friends and family... simply anyone connected to your organisation that you would like to provide a free fitness and wellbeing platform to. Oh... did we mention if you are signing up for your employees', their household members (over 18) are covered as well at no additional charge! How do we calculate this? Let's say you signup for 100 authorised accounts, we add on a 20% threshold. And whilst we'd love everyones family/household to take advantage of this offer, in reality it is probably unlikely everyone will, that why we include 20%. This means that up to 120 people can signup using your organisations hub, 20 more than you pay for. But don't worry if theres a few extra users we won't be chasing you for more fee's, the more wellbeing in peoples lives the better is how we see it.

Thats right, the best bit is yet to come. Not only are you providing a service for your employee's health and wellbeing, but you are actively providing the option for their household to use it as well and that's on us, there's no additional charge to you. As we said in our mission statement "Everyone should have access to premium health services, no matter their circumstance". One authorised account covers an entire household. A healthy home and a healthy family helps promote a healthy lifestyle for your employee... that can only be a good thing, right? For your household members to sign up all they need to do is register for the site, whilst registering just add the name of the Partner providing the service.
