What a great week we've had with the Pilates by Lisa team filming a whole new series for the Online Studio. We've put in long hours but it's been great to have the team back together. Some outstanding work has already been produced and there's more to come! We've faced a few obstacles with the weather this week but it certainly brings home the convenience of not having to leave your living room to workout with the Online Studio.
