We Wanted To Hear From You
Big thank you to everyone who filled in the questionnaire we sent out over Christmas “We Want To Hear From You”.
Below are the results of ‘what do you attend’ both “Live” and “Online” showing a strong interest in Pilates:
We asked you for suggestions for new classes and the clear favourite was various forms of dance. Out of a total of 53 suggestions 7 were “Dance”, 1 was “Disco”, 2 were Latin Dance, 3 were Zumba, 1 Ballroom and 1 Argentine Tango! Out of 53 that’s 15 wanting dance of one kind or another, 28.3% – that’s a lot. We need to look at doing a lot more dancing.
The complete list without dance (15) is:
| Art | 2 | More venues | 1 | Spinning | 1 |
| Book Club | 1 | Online singing | 1 | Studio Painting | 1 |
| Choir | 1 | Pilates | 4 | Swimming | 1 |
| Cooking | 1 | Quit Smoking | 1 | Walks | 1 |
| Craft | 1 | Record Classes | 2 | Water Aerobics | 1 |
| Knitting | 1 | Self Defence | 1 | Weights | 1 |
| Mindfulness | 1 | Setting up Website | 1 | Writing | 1 |
| More outdoor classes | 1 | Sewing | 2 | Yoga | 3 |
We are going to look at new dance classes, more craft and art, more and different level Pilates, and more Yoga. It is not the first time we have been asked to record classes and make them available online and it is something we’ve wanted to do but it takes so much time we are going to have to kick it down the road until we are able to either hire someone or find a volunteer. All the rest are noted and are already in the pipeline like a) “More Outdoor Classes”; b) something I’d already like to do but we need to find funding – “Book Club” and “Setting up a Website”; c) something we already do – “Mindfulness”; or d) we simply need to find funding.
And lastly another thank you for participating. In all 81 people completed the questionnaire. I am working with Diana Birtas from Checkout.com who is volunteering her time to help Healthy Generations improve our social media. She said that 81 is a really good response and is a testament to the Healthy Generations’ community.
