Improve Your Balance with Three Exercises from T8 Fitness




Balance is an integral part of each and every movement you make. You need to be able to maintain your balance as you move through your day, as you change direction, or during any kind of quick movements. Good balance can assist in preventing injuries, during both workouts and exercise movements, as well as everyday tasks like cleaning the house or running for the MTR. T8 Fitness offers a wide-range of equipment solutions which assists with balance-- as well as all your yoga, Pilates, rehabilitation and exercise needs.

Unless you're an avid yogi or surfer, you probably don't think about your balance, and how good or bad it is, very often. And even if you do, there is always room for improvement! Here are three exercises that can help you see how good, or bad, your balance is, and provide a starting point if you’re looking to improve your stability:


Single-Leg Balance and Squat
Balance on one leg with the other leg lifted up, knee toward your chest, for as long as you can. Ideally, you will be able to do this for 30 seconds on each leg with no problem. If not, keep trying until you hit that 30-second goal.

Bounds
Bound basically means, Jump. Start by standing on one leg, then make a small jump forward. Pause for 2-3 seconds with good control, then jump backwards (on that same leg). See how many you can complete on each foot while maintaining your balance.  

T-Stand With Side Bend
Start balancing on your left leg with your right knee bent at a 90-degree angle, hands extended out to the side. Hands at your hips, tightening your core, and raise your right leg out behind you. As you do, lower your torso and reach your right hand to touch the inside of your left ankle. Return to start. Then reach your right hand down to touch the outside of your right leg. Try to complete the sequence eight times on one side, then repeat on your opposite side.

We are dedicated to ensuring our products are designed with the highest level of quality and both functional and stylish details.

Interview with Pilates House Macau Polestar Pilates Asia Host Centre



Get to know a little more about Polestar Pilates Asia and our highly educated and experienced Host Centres located in the major hubs across Asia. We are happy to welcome Ceci Lam, founder and owner of Pilates House Macau. Thank you for joining us in this interview:

Q：When was your studio opened?
    你的工作室是什麽時候創建的？
A：Pilates House Macau opened on Oct 2017
   澳門普拉提之家創建於2017年10月。

Q：What are the reasons your started your own studio?
    是什麽原因讓你想要創建屬於自己的普拉提工作室呢？
A：Pilates offers very effective and safe exercises, and when we opened our doors there were no Pilates Studio in Macau. I dreamed of bringing Pilates to Macau because it’s where I grew up and I wanted to help my local community.
普拉提是一項高效而且安全的運動。但是在那個時候，澳門卻沒有任何一家專業的普拉提工作室，所以我很希望我能把普拉提這項運動帶回澳門——這個我成長的地方，讓澳門人認識普拉提並得益於此。

Q：What services do you offer in your studio?
    你的工作室提供什麽課程服務呢？
A：We offer small group classes, Reformer and Mat, as well as one on one studio sessions. We are a fully equipped Pilates Studio
   我們工作室提供團體課程與一對一私教課程。團體課程又分核心床與墊上普拉提。工作室配有所有普拉提器材。

Q：How do you feel about the Pilates market in Macau? Is it growing?
你感覺普拉提在澳門的市場前景怎麽樣？還有成長的空間嗎？
A：It’s booming and there’s still space to grow. When I opened my studio no one in Macau knew what Pilates was, then after several months after we opened everyone in Macau is talking about Pilates, and many people are looking for Pilates classes. Now the only challenge is that there are not enough certificated Pilates Instructors in town. The demand is more than supply!
普拉提這項運動目前正在澳門高速發展，但在普拉提這條路上澳門其實還有很大的發展空間。當初，在我的工作室創建初期，澳門人基本上都不知道普拉提究竟是什麽。我的工作室運營幾個月之後，大家才慢慢開始討論普拉提，尋求普拉提運動的人才逐漸變多。所以普拉提對於澳門來説，還有大的發展前景，唯一的挑戰是專業普拉提教練在澳門實在是太少了，不能滿足市場的需求。

 

Q: How long have you been a Polestar host?
Since 2018
A:你是什麽時候開始成爲北極星普拉提培訓代理？
從2018年開始。

Q: Why did you choose to work with Polestar?
你爲什麽選擇與北極星普拉提合作？
A: I graduated from Polestar, thus I am familiar with the system. I trust this system to train good instructors.
我是從北極星普拉提畢業的，我熟悉這個教育培訓系統同時也相信這個系統能培訓出優秀的普拉提教練。

Q: It must be fun to train future Pilates instructors. What makes it so special for you?
培訓未來的普拉提教練肯定很有趣，是什麽吸引你堅持下去？
A: As I said how much I love this exercise-- I wish everyone could have the ability to do Pilates properly with a highly trained Polestar Pilates Instructor.
因爲我自身很喜歡普拉提這項運動，我希望每一個人都能在專業普拉提導師的指引下正確運動。

Q: Do you have any special message or advice for those that want to become a Pilates Instructor?
對於未來想成爲普拉提導師的同學，請問你有什麽建議想對他們説？
A: Be patient, becoming a good Pilates instructor is a long journey. Be prepared to invest a lot of time to study and practice-- because the more you invest the better you become. Doing what you love as a job is priceless, I am so happy everyday to teach and I don’t feel like I am working at all!
一定要有耐心，成爲一名優秀、專業的普拉提導師是一場修行，你需要付出大量的時間來學習與實踐，你付出的時間越多纍計的經驗越多，你的能力就會變得越好。我覺得自己是幸運的，因爲我能把自己喜歡的事情轉換成爲職業，每一天當我教授我的會員運動時，我并不感覺自己是在工作。

Q: Do you have any special events/courses/promotions   upcoming that you want to share with people?
 請問你的工作室最近會有任何活動/培訓課程/推廣活動推薦給大家嗎？
A: Pilates House Macau will host Polestar Studio/Rehab course in this coming September 2019. It’s the ever first Polestar Studio/Rehab course in Macau.
澳門普拉提之家在即將到來的2019年9月將會開辦北極星普拉提場館大器械綜合資格培訓課程，這是澳門第一次舉辦關於場館大器械的課程。

Think late invoices are no big deal? Think again! Late invoices can have a huge impact, and devastating effect, on a company’s cash flow-- especially small businesses.
In today’s world it has almost become the norm to pay bills late, and this has a direct impact on your bottom line. Here are the facts from PayPal and Xero’s research:

  • In an average month, almost half (48%) of invoices are paid late. They are also paid 14 days late on average.
  • The situation only gets worse over time: on an average day in February 2019, businesses were owed £23,360. Compared with February 2018, when businesses were owed £20,004 in late payments – that’s a 17% increase in twelve months. Shocking.

  • 37% of entrepreneurs have considered giving up their business entirely due to cash flow issues. If even a fraction of them actually did give up, this would cause economic instability.
  • Three-quarters of entrepreneurs say that running a business would feel more ‘worth it’ if late payments weren’t a thing. And 26% say they’d enjoy better physical health!


In essence, this means that business owners are experiencing poor cash flow, which leads to rising debt and feeling of failure. This creates a vicious cycle, after all it’s hard to lead a company when you’re feeling like a failure!

Taking initiative to solve the late payment problem can be the difference between your company thriving, or failing. By investing and using modern technology such as Xero, businesses can eliminate their late payments and ensure they get paid in good time in the future.

Dress Confidently with a Bespoke Jacket, Blazer, or Suit Jacket from La Elite Fashions



Confidence is the key to becoming successful at pretty much anything in life. And being well-dressed is essential to this. From top quality fabric to well-designed details, the experienced tailors at La Elite Fashions will have you looking sharp- fast! Stop in today for a fitting at La Elite Fashions shop in Tsim Sha Tsui; you could have your new suit in less than 24 hours!

Blazers, sports coats, and suit jackets might look interchangeable, but they’re not. They might be cut from the same materials and even constructed in similar designs, but they are different. Let’s look at each one of them and see the difference.

Suit Jackets are very common worldwide, and also have buttons, but they obviously come with a matching set of pants. This can be confusing for some, “Can you wear the jacket with other pants or jeans?”. A rule to dress by: If you can buy them separately, they can be worn separately. Or simply ask Danny next time you stop by La Elite Fashions- you’ll always leave this shop looking sharp!




Blazers have durable brass buttons because they’re historically associated with rowing, sailing and other nautical sports. You’ll almost always see them in a solid color. The blazer highlights your build uniquely, and it is perhaps the most versatile jacket that can be worn. Many people confuse it with the sports coat, but the texture and pattern of the material will tell you the difference.

Sports Coats look similar to blazers, but have plastic or leather buttons. If executed well, jeans and a sports coat will give you a sharp look that is casual, yet formal. The other advantage of wearing a well-complemented sports coat is that it offers a number of pockets, lightening your pants pockets.

Before dressing up for the occasion, a man should determine the occasion and wear appropriately. A properly selected, and well-fitting blazer, sports coat, or suit jacket will reflect confidence, maturity, and style. At Le Elite Fashions, a custom fit with properly taken measurements is an essential start for your new custom-fit, bespoke suit (or whatever you require!) Le Elite Fashions also produces high-quality, custom clothing for women as well. Stop on by Le Elite Fashions in Tsim Sha Tsui today!

Visit La Elite Fashions at 1-E, Mody road, Tsim Sha Tsui Kowloon, Hong Kong (MTR Exit: N5, Opposite to Holiday Inn Golden Mile Hotel on Mody Road). You can also reach us at 2368 0040, or email laelite@netvigator.com
