Sitting is the new smoking

Pilates instructor aims to get Islanders moving

Research claiming sitting is the new smoking has given a local Pilates instructor incentive to get Islander's moving.

Next month, Mo Sherring is running an event to encourage Manxies to build more activity into their everyday life.

It will include a talk and practical classes to help demonstrate why increasingly sedentary lives are dangerous and how to overcome such risks.

The event takes place on Saturday 18 May, from 10am-1pm at University College Isle of Man.

To register or find out more, call Mo Sherring on 490480.
