I am so incredibly chuffed to share with you that I have made the choice to relaunch my online platform after a long break from filming. I feel so ready for this— I've really missed sharing my classes with my online community. Read on for all of the juicy deets 🧃
SOME WORDS ON WHAT I'VE BEEN UP TO
In early 2022, I started to feel creatively stuck and I was dealing with some things in my personal life that made it difficult for me to film at that time. I decided to pause filming for 6 months and slow down the pace of my life, which included a break from newsletters and Instagram too.
During this time I naturally started to spend more time on music and started getting more DJ bookings. I've played some really exciting shows within this time and I am really looking forward to the future with this. However, growing online came with many immense rewards and recently I've started to notice the gap this has left. Going forward, I've made a few changes to my weekly teaching schedule to allow myself some time and space to start doing this again. I can’t wait to connect with more people who will benefit from this amazing practice.
CHANGES TO THE PLATFORM
With this, I've decided to organise the content that currently exists on the catalogue. For those that attend my in-person classes, you will have noticed how my style as an Instructor has evolved over the last 2 years.
Although I don't want to disregard my journey, I do want the content on the catalogue to align with my ethos as the instructor I am today so that I feel comfortable promoting this product wholeheartedly going forward.
I've archived the earliest videos uploaded when I was a total online novice. The time I was learning how to create content and figuring out my identity as an instructor. For £13.99p/m (the same price as just one cocktail in London), you have access to over 100 different classes catering to your mood, energy levels, technical ability and time. This includes weekly fitness schedules that will change every week.
I know that many of you liked the early classes, so if you try to find a video that isn't available anymore, drop me a message and I will send them to you.
EXCITING NEW FEATURES
You can now add a workout to your Google or Apple calendar directly from the platform when planning your week of workouts. I personally find it so beneficial to schedule in my classes, so I hope you will love this feature too.
Don't fancy the planning? I'll do the work for you. Every week I'll release a new weekly schedule for you to work through. There is going to be a Barre specific programme, and a Barre X Strength hybrid programme. Every weekly programme includes 1 x cardio day and flexibility/mobility training.
When I upload new classes, every video will have a button underneath so you can choose to take the video without the music added. Maybe you like me as a teacher but don't like my music, I won't be offended 👼
You can now refer a friend and get free membership for yourself. Go into your dashboard to find your referral link. You can share your personalised link with other mates, and when the referred user signs up and pays their first invoice, the referrer receives 30 days of free membership.
PRICING
When I decided to stop filming, I reduced my monthly subscription fee from £20p/m to £13.99p/m during the period of absence. I have decided I will keep this at the same price despite relaunching the platform because the number of videos has reduced for now.
I will increase the price by £2 every time 20 new classes are uploaded, but this will cap at £20p/m.
I'll always let you know in advance of any changes in price and ensure to send a reminder email too. New content will be added bi-weekly for now, with the potential to increase once I get into the swing of things.
FINAL UPDATES
Keep your eyes peeled for brand spanking new workouts, cool features on the platform, and social content to boot.
**The first new class will drop on the 4th of November, alongside a selection of new warm-up and cool-down videos. The weekly schedules will also launch on this date.**
On a separate note, I am beginning to build my own schedule of classes from Fieldworks Dance on London Fields. It is such a beautiful space and it has been so fulfilling to curate this experience myself. The people that come to these classes make it though, you know who you are 😉 Keep your eye out for additions to my weekly schedule here, you can find this on the studio tab of my website.
Lastly, I have enrolled in a training course covering a new exercise discipline and will be qualified by the end of November. I'll give you some clues - ambient, IDM and downtempo mixes, slow and spicy strength movements linked with breath, we use a machine and a nice man called Joseph started the method.
Your support with everything so far has been very humbling, thank you so much for this.
