A big thank you to Daniella (Daniella) for hosting her very first Pilates at the Yard with us last Saturday, 8 August.🧘🏻‍♀️✨

It was a fantastic 45-minute session, followed by some delicious cupcakes, and everyone went home with a goodie bag packed with vouchers from Daniela’s sponsors, as well as their own water to keep hydrated.

A special thank you to Tracy (Tracey Botha) for capturing the morning so beautifully with her amazing photos.🌻

We had an absolute ball and loved seeing everyone come together, move, and enjoy the session. Thanks again, Daniella, we can’t wait to do it all again and host Pilates at the Yard #2!
