New class schedule and juicing recipe

I can't believe it's Wednesday already. I met with Paula today, owner of Young at heart and I have the link to the website to register for classes. Thank You Paula for the wonderful lunch and it was great to meet Amanda. Great crew to be working with.

Made some wonderful applesauce with all our apples from apple picking!Yum!!

a great juicing recipe:

4 or 5 celery stalks
1 cucumber (2 small)
1 or 2 apples
2 handfuls of baby spinach
1 inch of fresh ginger
fresh hot peppers ( choose wisely) I like my peppers hot but, add a little at a time....

This juice recipe is full of vitamins c, Iron, folate, fiber and it's also great for rehydration.


Enjoy the week!

Pilates 5 and planks

Just to clear up some confusion, My Pilates classes are Mat for all levels. The reformer is done on a private only session. Loving the fall weather. It's just starting to turn a little chilly at night and in the morning, with that crisp feel in the air.  I am able to do my sessions or classes outside with this cool weather. Just finished another busy week. Loving my own Pilates classes that I am taking for myself.

This weekends focus is the Pilates 5 (single leg stretch, double leg stretch, lower and lifts, single straight leg stretch, and criss crosses)and Planks!  When doing these focus on the slow and concentrated move. Working your breathe through the movement. Doing about 12 reps each! All body workout done in about 20-25min.

Last night for Pizza night I had:   Sun-dried tomato hummus and pizza on a flat bread tortilla, which consisted of feta, olives, sun dried tomatoes and olive oil. Yummmy!!!

Off to baseball game!!
Also, my husband and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary:)

Welcome Back!!! New Classes & Recipes

Welcome back everyone! First blog of the season after a very fun filled family summer. I have begun new training and lots of new classes. Some new classes are still enrolling for October. More info to come. Today, is my catch up day! Looking forward to setting up new videos and nutrition information. I will also include new recipes.  Speaking of recipes, and since it's Friday Night Pizza:)    I have my very own Pizza dough recipe.


My pizza! Non dairy cheese, olives, spinach & mushrooms
1 can Chickpeas (drained and rinsed well)
1/2 cup Organic Quick Oats
2 TBS Psyllium husk fiber
2 Garlic cloves( or whatever you prefer)
Olive Oil (drizzle)
Lots of seasonings(fresh tyme, basil, oregano, salt, pepper, etc) seasonings or limitless. Whatever you like.

Preheat oven to 450 and grease a pizza pan. Place all ingredients except for Olive Oil in a food processor. As you process the mixture drizzle the Olive Oil a little at a time.... Only about 2 TBS. Only enough to be able to press the dough mixture out onto the pan, because the chickpeas are already pretty moist. I bake without toppings for about 20 minutes and check bottom often. You may also flip over if one side is cooking faster than the other side. Then place your toppings on until ready!!
