Join me in Kent on 6-8th November for our next Fast Track Fitness Pilates Retreat.

This weekend is for everyone whether you have practised Pilates before or not. Our teachers Martin and Vanessa will lead you through each session and whether you are new or want to delve deeper into your practice we hope you will get a lot out of this weekend.

Come alone or bring a friend, with only 12 participants this is a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends.

There will be plenty of time to rest and relax, enjoy the sauna or take a dip in the outdoor pool. Alternatively cosy up in front of a wood burner with a good book.

We will be fed healthy, nutritious food by our chef Nafia, always dessert and cake on offer!

Pricing is per room rather than per person so the retreat is accessible for all. Enjoy a room all for yourself or share with old friends or new. All rooms are en-suite.

Head to our website to find out more and to book.

Discover Fast Track Fitness Retreats, where expert trainers and the beautiful English countryside combine to offer personalised wellness programs, outdoor activities, nourishing local cuisine, and holistic workshops. Start your transformative fitness journey today!

Watch our lovely ponies but never touch or feed!

🐴🌲 A Message from Your Local New Forest Pony 🌲🐴

Hey there, lovely two-legged visitors! It’s me, one of the many proud New Forest ponies who call this beautiful place home. 🐎

I just wanted to trot by with a little reminder: please respect the New Forest Code when you’re out and about. It helps keep us safe, the forest healthy, and your visit peaceful and magical. 🌿✨

Here’s what we kindly ask:

🚫 Don’t feed us – we know we’re cute (just look at this mane!), but human food can make us very ill.
🚗 Drive carefully – we wander the roads too, and we don’t have airbags!
🗑️ Take your litter home – the forest isn’t a bin, and rubbish can harm wildlife.
🌼 Stick to the paths – tramping off-route can damage rare plants and nesting areas.
🐕 Keep dogs under control – a playful pup to you can be terrifying to us or to ground-nesting birds.

We’ve been here for generations, helping shape this landscape. Please help protect it so we can all enjoy it for many more.

Thanks for being kind visitors — now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some grazing to do. 🌾
