A Look Ahead to 2025 – What Stays and What Changes?
Dear all,
As 2024 draws to a close, we’re excitedly looking ahead to 2025. Some changes are coming, but much will stay the same. In this newsletter, we’re happy to share what you can expect in the new year!
Since August, Dimitra has taken over five of my classes, including those on Tuesday evenings and Wednesday mornings. This has created more opportunities for other activities within the studio. More news will follow!
Good News About Rates
The government has decided not to increase VAT on sports classes from 9% to 21%. This means the prices for mat classes will remain the same. Prices for other training sessions will increase slightly. The new rates will be available on our website under ” Overige trainingen” starting January 2025.
End of Online Classes, Introduction of a Video Library
Starting January 2025, we will discontinue live online classes. Instead, we are developing an extensive video library with a variety of Pilates classes. This will allow you to follow sessions at your own pace and convenience. More information will follow soon.
Changes to the Class Schedule
From January onward, Hanny will stop teaching her Thursday evening classes. Taking her place will be Lene Derks, who will lead the Thursday evening Pilates classes.
To introduce herself, here’s a message from Lene:
Hi lovely people!
I’m Lene 🙂 Starting in the new year, I’ll be bringing you enjoyable Pilates classes.
For the past five years, I’ve been teaching yoga with love and passion, and now Pilates too! I’m excited to help strengthen both your body and mind. Looking forward to meeting you all!
Additionally, the Thursday classes will shift by 15 minutes to allow space for a potential extra class:
- 18:45 will become 19:00
- 20:00 will become 20:15
With sufficient sign-ups, we’re planning to start the following new classes:
- Wednesday 12:00 Pilates with Dimitra
- Thursday 11:15 Yoga with Lene
- Thursday 17:45 Pilates with Lene
Social Media and Photos in the Studio
In 2025, we aim to spotlight our studio more on Facebook and Instagram, featuring atmospheric images from our classes. We will, of course, ask for your consent first. A poll will be sent via the app. If you prefer not to be photographed, we will fully respect your wishes.
We look forward to an exciting and energetic 2025 with all of you!
With sporty regards,
The P.A.M. Pilates Team
