I have loved performing in Amateur Musical Theatre for many years but didn’t think this could continue with age I am 76 yrs old but recently I was part of a local drama group performing in Pantomime I was in the ensemble. So that included dancing and singing 5 dances at each performance. I performed in a total of 7 shows in two weekends. 2 shows on the 2 Saturdays, one at 2 pm and one at 7.30 pm. These were dances that needed balance and strength in legs, knees and ankles and flexibility. With the songs, I needed a good breathing technique to be able to perform a solo along with a vigorous dance routine. I didn’t stumble, stagger or fall during these dances I felt perfectly stable and safe. I can only put this down to years of attending Jane’s ‘Omjane’ Pilate classes and chair exercises. We are taught balance, strengthening of the whole body and flexibility. We are also taught breathing techniques. I am so glad I invested in my body’s future 12 years ago with Jane. I am so pleased that Jane continued to teach us on Zoom after Covid it’s so easy and you don’t have to go out in the cold and now Jane has included a video of the class we attended so we can top up during the week. Well done Jane I’m sure you’ve prolonged my active life.
