A Leap of Faith…
For those of you who don't know, when Sam and I created SMASH I was General Manager of Fitness First Angel - a company I had been an employee of for 13 years…

Sweat, Breathe and Laugh
We hope you are well! Today we have guest writers in the form of your SMASH London Yoga instructors Sandi and John.

Every day is world mental health day
How are you feeling? Really feeling?
Take some time now to check in with your thoughts, feelings and emotions and know that each of them are valid. Also know that you have the power to make any changes, big or small, to bring more positivity into your life

Our mental health journey...
In today's email we wanted to honour World Mental Health Day (10th October) and share a little of our past and why we created SMASH London. Some of you may have heard these stories before, but many of the newer community members have not heard why we felt compelled to create a class that focuses on mental health, as much as physical

A mental health challenge and an exciting collaboration!
Autumn is here so we have a mental health challenge for you for the whole of October! As the days get shorter and the weather turns grey (as well as the fact it's 2020 - enough said!), we know that our mood can be lower, our energy can drop and our overall mental health can sometimes feel 'odd'.

Trust Yourself Completely...
Perhaps now, more than ever before, we need to hear this...
Trust that everything will be okay.

Seasons Changing...
Next Tuesday is the "official" beginning of Autumn - not that you could tell by the current heatwave! Today in the midst of my packing I found an email which I wrote about the changing of seasons three years ago after I'd moved into the previous flat!


Be the author of your own story...
It has been a busy few weeks for me as I've been house hunting and starting to pack up my current flat. This time I'll be moving to the outskirts of London to get some of that countryside that I've been missing from my lockdown 'home' in Wales!

Light Bulb Moment...
I was revisiting some old emails and wanted to share this one with you that I wrote in March 2018...
'Light Bulb Moment' -

A promise from us...
Here is an extended version of a recent Instagram post, with a little about my past and why Sam and I are so passionate about helping those who have financial worries.

Confidence, growth and strength...
This weekend I'll be going up North for a few days holiday around my birthday and as is tradition over the last 3 years, we shall be celebrating SMASH style with a workout! This is where rule number 3 will apply even more.

Time Flies...
Sam here hoping you are all well this sunny (at time of writing) August day. Can you believe it's already August?! They say time flies when you are having fun, though in the grand scheme of things 2020 may not been as fun a year as we had expected it to be.

Sandcastles...
As many of you will know, we are huge fans of the Calm app and use it daily to practise our meditation. Recently, a wonderful meditation focused on the nature of impermanence and we wanted to share the words that the narrator Tamara Levitt wrote and spoke at the end...

It’s time for the spotlight to be shared.
I’m a huge advocate for body confidence and body positivity – I know, they sound like they should be synonymous but they’re not and I want to tell you where the difference lies.

Wake up, shine...
I'd like to share one of my favourite past emails with you...
The one and only - August 2019

Together, but apart...
As you know, as lockdown has started to ease, both myself and Ash have been training clients outside, both personal training as well as small group training. I am a big fan of people watching and it has given me a lot of joy to see so many people training outside. Together, but apart.

Stop. Breathe. Reset.
As we have mentioned before, we are sharing some of our previous emails with the community (there are 3 years worth now!). It's really insightful to re-read the emails and reflect on how we were feeling back then.
