EFA WA News - 18th February, 2005



EFA WA - News
11th February 2005

        Hi all

Another quiet one this week, apart from on the courses and seminars front, so I’ll just give a plug for the pilates classes being held here at the SEC.  I experienced one for myself yesterday and I must say that I’m feeling it a bit today! It was worth it though…… For everyone that lives in the area this is a great opportunity to take advantage of the close location and it’s such good exercise that can really help with your riding! Check out the details under “SEC News”.  Have a great weekend.
