“What proof do I need to give you to show I’m on a low income?” And the answer is… none. At Mobilates, we don’t ask for proof.

It can feel creative, wise, and freeing to find a different way of doing things. A way that works with your body instead of against it. A way that helps you keep going, keep moving, keep living. And then there are times when adaptation does not feel inspiring at all.

It can involve changes in thoughts, perceptions, emotions, and behaviour, and may feel confusing, overwhelming, and distressing.

A Day When Everything Felt Possible “By the time we got home, most of us were exhausted, emotional, and still absolutely buzzing — the good kind of tired that comes from doing something brave, joyful, and a little bit unbelievable. The kind where your body needs rest, but your heart is very, very full.” Some of our Mobilates members travelled to London to collect our award from Every Body Moves , and what followed was a day that’s going to stay with us for a very long time. T

Hello lovely Mob and suporters, and Happy New Year. If January feels a bit loud or heavy, you’re not alone. There’s so much pressure flying around to change ourselves, improve ourselves, push harder. We’re not doing that here. Mobilates is a place to come exactly as you are, wobbly, tired, low-spoon, hopeful, all of it. This year (and every year) we’re choosing nurturing, body love, gentle safe movement, and a community that reminds you you’re already enough.

December can be … a lot. Even if you love twinkly lights, cosy socks, the smell of cinnamon, and being covered in wrapping paper and sellotape, this time of year can be overwhelming.

Your Wellbeing Matters in Our Community Mobilates is more than an exercise programme — it’s a community where people come together to move, connect, and support one another. Many of us live with long-term health conditions, disabilities, mobility challenges, or fluctuating health, and we know that physical wellbeing and mental wellbeing are closely linked. During classes and social events, it’s natural for people to share updates about their health or life experiences. Someti

That’s where Ants and Elephants and The Saturday Ant Mob come in. They are Zoom opportunities for a little bit of accountability, motivation and cheerleading for life tasks.

I used to think that getting well was about being less lazy. Pushing through the pain and fatigue, ignoring what my body was saying, powering on despite how ill I was feeling. Then my body sat me down in my early twenties and said (it actually screamed at me!) absolutely not.

When illness forces us to pause, community keeps us moving. Mobilates founder Leanne shares an honest reflection on loss, purpose, and the power of rest and why Mobilates was built to last beyond one person.

She asked us to record short videos about times we’d been dismissed or mistreated by medical professionals. The response was overwhelming, because, sadly, so many of us have a story, usually multiple stories.
