A New Chapter

An update from me, and a glimpse into what’s next! 🌟

This feels a little surreal to write, but I've got something I want to share with you...

As most of you will know by now, I’m getting married later this year (early September to be exact, eek!). And with a wedding comes a marriage, and with a marriage comes a whole new chapter that I truly can’t wait for.

For the last five years, I’ve poured everything I possibly can into curating spaces, classes and a community that allows people to feel seen, empowered and supported through regular Pilates practice. And whether you’ve been here five minutes or five years, I hope you’ve felt just that.

When I first started teaching, I had no idea where it would lead me. I didn’t have a big goal or a business plan in mind, I just wanted to help people feel as good in their bodies and minds as Pilates has made me feel. 

That’s always been my ‘why’ behind what I do, and it always will be.

However, as I head into married life with my soon-to-be-hubby Ben, naturally, my priorities are shifting. This next chapter looks like laying some things down, picking new things up and fulfilling dreams that we’ve had for a long time.

And for us, that means packing up after our wedding and heading to Australia for a year!

To put this into context, before the pandemic Ben and I were working towards going travelling together, but life happened, we went into lockdown, I started a business, and here we are. (No regrets, of course! MWM is still the biggest adventure I’ve ever been on!) After falling in love with life down-under during a trip to Aus last year, it finally feels like the right time to scratch that travelling itch and to make that dream come true -- then after that, who knows!

Now I know what you might be thinking…

What does this mean for Move With Mollie? 🧘🏼‍♀️

Move With Mollie as you know it isn’t ending, it’s just shifting. And this shift has come with a lot of thought, care and love. Stay with me on this…

Community has always been at the heart of everything we do at Move With Mollie, and the thought of stepping away from seeing you all in person is the hardest part of all this. So I’ve been putting my whole heart into creating something that will help keep you moving, meet you where you're at, and keep you consistent in your practice.

My hope is that this next chapter will allow me to continue supporting you in an even bigger way, and that no matter where we are, we can carry the positive ripple effects of mindful movement with us!

To hold all of this growth, Move With Mollie is evolving into Ripple Wellness Co.

Ripple is an online space for movement, growth, and all the things that support your wellbeing -- both on and off the mat.

It’s a place where you can move at your own pace in our virtual studio, Ripple Movement, or join me live for Zoom and live-streamed classes so we can keep moving together in real time.

I’ll also be sharing self-development tools and courses through Ripple Coaching, helping you put your intentions into action to live a life you love through mindful practices. Plus, there’ll be weekly blog posts and newsletters with wellbeing tips, chats, and plenty more to explore.

All of this will live in your new online home for Pilates and wellbeing -- the Ripple website (coming soon!). I know it might be a lot to take in, but don’t worry, I’ll be there to guide you every step of the way!

I’ve got so much more I can’t wait to share, but for now, my little perfectionist brain needs a few more tweaks before I put it all out into the world.

So now you might be thinking…

What happens next? ➡️

Classes at MWM will be coming to a close at the end of July (I'm not ready either), with Ripple launching soon after, so we’ve still got plenty of time to roll out our mats and move together until then. Then on Saturday 25th July, I’ll be hosting a Pilates & Coffee Club special; A five year MWM anniversary celebration and one last hoorah before Move With Mollie evolves into Ripple Wellness Co. 

As we get closer to this era's end, I’ll be in touch with any current members on what this transition will look like for your subscriptions and will of course give you all more info on what's to come. But for now, let’s soak up these last few months of MWM together… The laughs, the planks, those pre-class chats and that post-class glow hehe.

Thank you for being here 💛

I’ve said it a million times, and I’ll say it a million more... I’m so glad you’re here. Thank you for hearing me out, for all your support, and for making the last five years so special.

If I’m honest, I’m not always great with change, and I’ll probably be a blubbering mess by the 25th of July. But this is a change I’m genuinely so excited about, and there’s been so much going on behind the scenes that I’m incredibly proud of. The thing I’m always most proud of, however, is the kindest, coolest community of Pilates People we’ve built together, and I can’t wait to take you on this journey with me!

So, when the time comes, I would love for you to join me as founding members in this new chapter. It might look a little different, but the intention is always the same: to create a space where you feel seen, empowered, and supported through the magic of mindful movement.

Lots of love,

Mollie x
