Energise PT Wellbeing Studio is a very tranquil place and perfect for yoga, surrounded by fields and very quiet, the sunsets are amazing
First started with Wednesday beginners group in January, wanting to get a bit of rehab after breaking a leg. Hadn't really exercised for years before that.
Didn't have a clue what to expect, after all, "yoga's not for blokes, is it?"
I have never been so wrong in my life!
After a gentle start with demonstration, encouragement, much patience and humour from Maddy, it all started to make sense. So much so that I also started to attend a mens yoga group on Mondays.
My core strength and flexibility has improved enormously and the reduction of everyday aches and pains is a great relief. I work in property Maintenance and as you can imagine this takes its toll on the body.
I now have the tools to self relieve back pain and help reduce stress levels.
Both groups I attend are humorous and relaxed. If I can't complete a move Maddy will always come up with an alternative, or much to her amusement, let me go freestyle!
The real joy of the mens group is that it is completely non competitive, there are people at all levels of learning. It can be extremely funny and most importantly of all; not a stitch of Lycra in sight! Shorts, tracky bottoms and T shirts are great.
Having previously been in education and training for over 20 years I can vouch that Maddy is a natural teacher and wants to get the best out of each individual in the class.
The studio is a short distance outside of Shepton Mallet, is easy to find and has a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere.
Thanks Maddy!
Finding Maddy and lifting weights instead of trying standard exercise that never works for me, has opened a new door for me.
I have been seeing her once a week for the last few months and she has not only helped me physically but mentally as well.
I unfortunately suffer with a multitude of issues that nearly pushed me to breaking point when I was recently diagnosed with PTSD. Maddy helped me with this without being intrusive while I was waiting for my therapy appointments and taught me some centring and breathing techniques which has also helped me cope with my anxiety, depression and panic attacks.
To top that off, poor Maddy had to adapt my training because I have CFS. I’m amazed she even took me on, tears and all. 🌟
Maddy has changed my life for the better and I will always be eternally grateful.
I have been training with Maddy since Mar/Apr and have seen such an improvement in my fitness and mindset and this is getting better all the time.
We regularly track my progress and it’s always good to see the inches coming off 😄
I have no intention of stopping my sessions anytime soon and look forward to seeing myself progress even more.
