Small Celebrations
Just before lockdown, I celebrated that I finally got a Class of Somatic Pilates to start at my home. The electric blankets were on under the mats, and we also had hot water bottles. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to teach in an intimate warm environment.
These were a couple of the comments I received for that first class,
“A beautiful movement and explorative experience. I was guided by Clare in the most supportive way that reflected my own body's needs and intuition. Thank you Clare.”
Friday mornings session was great, worked a treat and I could really feel movement benefits in my upper back and shoulders all weekend!
So fingers crossed, Im going to start again this Friday and am looking forward to meeting some new people in my local community that are interested in Somatic Pilates.
Congratulations Auckland on getting through another lockdown, hopefully, we wont have too many more!

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Mana (Authority, Power, and Prestige) - Day 16
Māui and the Sacred Fire
Māui, a legendary hero, sought to bring fire to the people from Mahuika, the Atua of fire. Māui approached Mahuika with respect for her mana, acknowledging her as the keeper of sacred power. Through wit and humility, he earned her trust, receiving the secret of fire to share with humankind. This act elevated Māui's mana and showed the importance of respecting authority while using power for the greater good.
Moral: Recognise and honour the mana of others while wielding authority with responsibility and integrity.
