Sport Pilates, Keep fit, Sport
Kate Woolger

Pilates classes are suitable for all fitness levels.

Some of the benefits of Pilates are:-

1. Correct muscle imbalances

2. Improve posture & general well being

3. Lengthen and strengthen the muscles especially the abdominals and back.

4. Tone the muscles

5. Relax

Pilates exercises are slow and controlled movements using the deep abdominals, back and shoulder muscles which can help to create a flatter tummy and protect the back from injury.


Classes are run termly in Englefield Green.  1-2-1 Sessions are also available.  Please contact me for further details

Jazz in the Green

Friday July 22nd

New Jazz Couriers featuring Mornington Lockett

I am delighted to announce that the final Jazz in the Green before our Summer break features Tenor Sax player Mornington Lockett and the ?New Jazz Couriers?.

The New Jazz Couriers is an evolution of the group ?Celebrating the Jazz Couriers? formed by Mornington and Oscar Peterson drummer Martin Drew in 2001 which recreated the Tubby Hayes and Ronnie Scott Group of the late 50?s.

Today the music of the New Jazz Couriers takes in the repertoire of the Tubby Hayes Quartet as well as the compositions of the great British pianist and Vibraphone player Victor Feldman.

Mornington was born in Stepney, London but grew upon the Isle of Wight. Initially he studied clarinet but changed to the saxophone under Bobby Wellins at Dartington College in Devon, where he became the first person in the UK to get a degree on the instrument.

There have been many influences on his musical style including Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Michael Brecker.

As well as Mornington Lockett the New Jazz Couriers includes an exciting line up of Jim Hart on Vibes, Steve Melling on Piano and Martin Drew on drums. An old Jazz in the Green favourite, Andy Cleyndert is on bass.

I am sure that this will be a great end to our Spring/Summer program and we look forward to seeing many of you there.

As usual the doors open at 7.30 pm and the music will start shortly after 8pm

Tickets (?8 if ordered before, ?9 on the night) are available either from ?Genevieve? in Victoria Street, Englefield Green or from Alan Crouse on 01784 432813.

We are really looking forward to seeing you all ? this should be a summer?s night to remember!!

Leisure Photography, Art
Dirk-J. Drews

Basic Digital Photography incl. macro

This is suitable for everybody, who is interested in knowing more about photography than just how to press the button. Aperture, shutter speed, focal length and other technical details will have a meaning to you after this workshop. You'll be able to influence field of depth and other parameters. You'll understand the influence of sensor size and number of "megapixel". Pictures will not only be "better" but also get the look you intended!

I am a 48 year old academic male and I want this group to be suitable for all age groups with no or just basic knowledge on digital photography. I am new to Addlestone and I am doing this just for fun and to get acquainted.  If you're interested, I'd like to share my knowledge on (digital) photography. Even though I am German I think my English is good enough to get the message across. If you like it, we may continue with basic knowledge on storing pictures, retouching artifacts and basic manipulations.

Please let me know by e-mail if you're interested. The workshop / course will start mid November 2012. We'll need to find a place to meet; any suggestions are welcome!

CU soon!
