Frame Studio in Shoreditch http://www.moveyourframe.com/ is making this Sunday ( Sunday 31 January) 'Donations Day' for the survivors of the Haiti Earthquake. In an effort to raise as much money as possible, all of Frame's fantastic instructors will be giving up their time for free to get you limbered up for the week ahead, and in exchange you will be donating the cost of however much you think the class is worth to a very important cause. There is no need to book classes, simply turn up, take part and be generous! If you don't fancy a workout, then there will...
Ha... geddit? Lala ....L.A... whatever. Anyway, Now that K-Swiss have launched themselves into the running market with aplomb, and some bloody great running shoes to boot, they will be sponsoring the LA Marathon on 21st March. Just working with K-Swiss makes me want to be a fitter person, and this is certainly one marathon that i'd like to run. Starting at the Dodgers Stadium the route will go via Hollywood Boulevard, Rodeo Drive - spot of shopping enroute? - and around Santa Monica Boulevard before finishing at the Santa Monica Ocean. Nice. Check out this little view to welcome you home...

It is Friday Night Club time of course, so this Friday get your Halloween costumes ready and head down to Frame for the only time in the year when you can get dressed up as the walking dead and bounce around on mini trampolines. Unless you're into that kind of thing anyway, that is. The usual fabulous rules apply: £20 gets you a choice of workouts a; Rebounding (mini trampolines and hella fun) b; Learn the choreography to Jacko's 'Thriller' followed by a tippple and makeovers with MAC ladies. There will also be apple bobbing and doughnut eating competitions to...
If you're fed up of everyone and their dog saying that they're in training for a triathlon, then just mutter the word "ironman" to keep their fitness freak warbles to a minimum. Never heard of Ironman? You're as unfit as we are. Ironman is the hardest triathlon known to man, and K-Swiss is now their global footwear provider. In fact, it is more endurance than race. How does a 2.4 miles open water swim followed by 112 mile cycle, sound? Sorry, forgot that after the cycle you need to run 26.2 miles (which I believe is a marathon). Heck,...
" You've got big dreams? You want fame? Well, fame costs. And right here is where you start paying in sweat...." Well kind of... Time to dust off those legwarmers (unless you live in Shoreditch, where they've probably been in use for some time now) as Fame is back. Oh yes! To celebrate the cinematic release of the new Fame movie, Joan and Pip at Frame thought nothing would beat dedicating a whole evening to the original 80's lycra clad, star jumping, musical. So, come down in your favourite Fame outfit and learn the choreography to the film's...
If you haven't seen it already, Pull and Bear - one of Europe's largest fashion chains under Inditex - has set up its flagship store on Oxford St, and my, it is looking impressive. To launch the arrival of 315 Oxford St, Pull and Bear has created a bespoke campaign to celebrate its origins along with the best of British, and some London steez for good measure. The campaign captures the essence of London's charm and hypnotism, as well as its iconic fusion of fashion and music.... hats off to London's favourite models of the moment Josh Beech, Karen Overton...
For everyone on two wheels, this is the equivalent of Cannes coming to town. But without all the Brad and Angelina rumours. And Yachts. Look, its just downright fun and deserves to be on everyones social calendar. The Bicycle Film Festival celebrates our favourite form of transport in all ways, from Tall Bike Jousting, Track Bikes, BMX, Alleycats, Crictical Mass, Bike Polo to Road Bike and Recumbents. If it has wheels and a cog, it is celebrated through art, film, music and performance. Not to mention Rollapaluzza, a few races and more than a few parties. Check here...
