As part of the DW Fitness Winter Wonderbody challenge I’ve been doing the rounds of the various gyms near my office (taking full advantage of their free trials) as sadly there isn’t a DW Fitness near enough for me to use. I work on the Strand right in the middle of London and it often… Read More Fitness Friday: Nuffield Health, Covent Garden
The only exercise I have ever enjoyed and stuck with is dancing. A couple of years back when I was still living in Aberdeen I was attending three or four classes a week at Citymoves, a local dance studio in the city centre not far from my flat, and I actually got up to a… Read More Fitness Friday: City Academy – Diva Dance Taster Class
Throughout March I attended the first level of burlesque dance academy with Burlesque Baby so I thought I’d tell you a little bit about it. BB hold classes for various levels, naturally you start at level one and work your way up to level five and graduation where you take part in a burlesque show.… Read More Burlesque Baby – Level One
With con season fast approaching I knew it was time to look into some exercise classes to help me tone up those wobbly bits before donning some of the more revealing outfits I have planned and thanks to Groupon I was able to snag myself two months of unlimited Zumba, Yoga and HIIT classes with… Read More Fitness Friday: London Live Fitness
I have to admit as I hopped off the bus directly outside York Hall my heart sank a little.

The spa however is located in the basement and… Read More Spa London: York Hall, Bethnal Green

I say snap decision but it was actually… Read More Hebe Hair & Beauty, The Strand
The first thing I like to do when I check in to a hotel room is find the guidebook and read it from cover to cover. A bit weird I know but I like to know what to expect when I visit a hotel and my visit to K West was no different. Reading that… Read More K West Spa, Shepherd’s Bush
Last week I had my hair done for only the second time since moving to London. I have quite long blonde hair that goes past my shoulder blades so I don’t really need to have it cut all that often but I do like to get my hair highlighted and after a few months it… Read More RiRi Hairdresser, Chinatown
Hot on the heels (pun intended!) of my invite from Legal & General to attend their Keepfit Bootcamp was another from simplyhealth for a Hot Pilates class they were holding to promote the relaunch of their back care app. I first tried pilates a couple of years ago when I was on holiday at Center… Read More Fitness Friday: Yotopia Hot Pilates hosted by simplyhealth UK
I’ve decided to try and get my blog a bit more “out there”. I love writing it and sharing my life and adventures with people but it’s nice to connect with bloggers in the real world too. So last weekend I went along to my first ever blogger event, a keepfit bootcamp hosted by Legal… Read More Fitness Friday: Keepfit Bootcamp hosted by Legal & General
