Female Feel Good Day
On Saturday 28th September 2024 we held our very first wellness event, The Female Feel Good Day, at Studio NRF. The event was an incredible success and the most empowering, feel good day for women.
We started at 9.45am with the arrival of our glorious girl gang and a delicious yogurt bowl from Balance Kitchen. After some gorgeous welcomes and a little mingling, at 10.15am we headed into Studio Two and Erin and I hosted our first ever live podcast episode. We chatted about what fitness has brought to our lives, the impact it has outside of the physical benefits, and just how wonderful changing your life in a positive healthy way can be. We were both a little nervous to begin with but got straight into our flow and the episode was an absolute hit!
Following the NRF & EHL poddy episode, we sent our attendees into Studio One for a little breakout time whilst we set up for the next part of our day; the workout! At around 11.15am we headed back into Studio Two for a spicy workout led by yours truly. The girls were put through their paces with four x 8 minute mini workouts including boxing, cardio, strength and a conditioning section. It was a super sweaty, endorphin filled workout and an absolute vibe from start to finish. I am not sure they loved it as much as I did though? Haha.
Then it was time to refuel and shop! Arguably the best part of the day?! Our girls headed back into Studio One to enjoy lunch from Balance Kitchen, with ‘build your own nourish bowls’ on the menu. The food was absolutely stunning, and exactly what everyone needed following a big workout. We also had our pop up shop open during the lunch hour and there was a real buzz around the Studio NRF merch, with Ged (my husband) doing his absolute
best to handle the stall without losing his head!!
Following lunch, we were treated to an incredible talk on building confidence from the wonderful Heather at Live Harmony Hypnotherapy. Heather passed on so much knowledge about how the brain works, how we can utilise our mindsets to cultivate confidence and strategies to master our minds. We then launched straight into a glorious Pilates session with Amy from The Bodyline Pilates and enjoyed a great stretch session with some spicy power thrown in for good measure. There was a mixture of absolute enjoyment, and a few groans and moans through the burn!
Now it was time to refuel again with a yummy juice from The Juice Hub, and we played a post it note game. Everyone was given pink post it notes and tasked with passing on as many empowering messages as possible to the other women in the room. It was heartfelt and a gorgeous vibe as the girls wrote as many compliment notes as they possibly could for one another. There were post it notes everywhere and the girls had them stuck all over
their bodies!!
As we neared the end of the day, we headed back into Studio Two for a relaxing and mindful sound bath with Jamie from Through The Echoes. Jamie took everyone through some relaxation before playing the sound bowls to absolute perfection for us. It was a really zen way to round off the day and left everyone feeling very content and relaxed.
Finally, to finish off we enjoyed a stunning mimosa from The Juice Hub, a delicious cupcake and everyone had the chance to take photos, collect their goodie bags and purchase any last bits from the pop-up shop.
It really was a truly beautiful day and we already cannot wait for the next one!
The date has been set, keep your eyes peeled!
