There’s something truly special about moving your body outdoors as the day softens into evening—and this June, you’re invited to experience just that in one of Ramsgate’s most historic hidden gems.

On Friday 19th June, 6:30–8:30pm, I’ll be hosting a unique outdoor Pilates evening in the beautiful Vale Square Gardens—a peaceful green space steeped in nearly 200 years of history, nestled within a conservation area of listed buildings in the heart of Ramsgate.

🌿 A Truly Special Setting

Vale Square Gardens offers a rare kind of tranquillity—two distinct garden spaces filled with character, heritage, and calm. It’s more than just a venue; it’s a place with a story.

This event also supports a meaningful local cause. The Vale Square Association is currently working to secure the future of the gardens through their Save The Square campaign. Their goal is to raise £40,000 by September 2026 to purchase and protect this space from potential development.

£3 from every ticket sold will be donated directly to support this campaign. By joining the event, you’re not only taking time for yourself—you’re also helping preserve this unique space for future generations.

🧘‍♀️ What to Expect

6:30–7:30pm – Gentle Outdoor Pilates We’ll begin with a gentle, flowing Pilates session, adapted for the outdoor setting. Expect mindful, controlled movement focusing on strength, mobility, and breath—accessible to all levels and designed to help you unwind at the end of the week.

7:30–8:30pm – Mingle & Unwind After the class, stay and enjoy the gardens at your own pace. There’ll be:

Light refreshments and bites
A covered marquee area
Time to connect, wander, or simply relax in the surroundings

✨ A Note on Atmosphere

This evening embraces the natural light and calm of the gardens, offering a different feel to my usual candlelit sessions. The setting itself will create the atmosphere—fresh air, greenery, and space to move and breathe.

🚗 Parking

Vale Square is set within a residential area, so on-street parking can be limited. There are nearby pay-and-display car parks within a short walking distance—please allow a little extra time to arrive and settle in before we begin.

💚 Move, Connect, Support

This is more than just a Pilates class—it’s a chance to slow down, enjoy the outdoors, meet like-minded people, and support a local conservation effort.

Spaces will be kept to a comfortable number for the setting, so booking is recommended.
