September has a funny way of feeling like a mini January. The kids go back to school, the summer holidays wind down, and suddenly our calendars open up again with a sense of fresh possibility. It’s a natural pause point — a chance to step back, reset, and ask: What do I want my routine to look like for the rest of the year?

At epYc, we see September as the perfect opportunity to get back on track with your training. Whether you drifted away during the busy summer months, struggled to find time between family commitments, or simply lost a bit of motivation, now is the time to rebuild your rhythm and set yourself up for success.

The best part? Resetting your routine doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With a few simple strategies, you can ease back in, find your flow, and make your training feel exciting again.

Start Small (and Build Up)

After time away from the studio, it’s tempting to go all-in — signing up for multiple classes a week, pushing yourself hard, and trying to “make up” for lost time. But here’s the truth: that approach usually leads to fatigue, frustration, or even injury.

Instead, choose one or two classes per week to begin with. Pick the ones that genuinely excite you — maybe that’s pole fitness if you love working on strength, or hatha yoga if you’ve missed having a gentle stretch. Once you’ve rebuilt the habit and training feels fun again, you can add more sessions.

Think of it like laying bricks: the goal isn’t to build a wall in one day, but to keep stacking them steadily until the structure is strong.

Treat Training Like an Appointment

Back-to-school season means everyone’s calendars get full again. School runs, after-school clubs, work deadlines, family responsibilities — it’s easy to let your own training slip to the bottom of the list.

But here’s the secret: if you don’t protect your time, no one else will.

Put your classes in your diary as if they were a non-negotiable meeting. Treat that hour as sacred — a promise to yourself. Clients who treat training this way often see the fastest progress, not because they train the most, but because they train consistently.

Balance Structure with Flexibility

A good routine doesn’t mean rigidly doing the same thing every week. In fact, a mix of classes keeps things interesting and gives your body the balance it needs.

For example, combining pole fitness with flow helps you build strength while also exploring creativity. Pairing pole with yoga supports your flexibility and recovery, so you can progress faster without burning out.

Your weeks won’t always look the same — and that’s okay. Progress isn’t about perfection in every single session; it’s about consistency over time.

Lean on the Community

Just as kids thrive in a classroom, adults thrive in community. Motivation naturally dips sometimes — that’s where support makes all the difference.

Tell a friend you’ll be at class, book with a buddy, or share your goals with your instructor. Sometimes, knowing someone else is expecting you is enough to help you show up.

And once you’re in class, you’ll feel the buzz of training together. The laughter, encouragement, and shared wins are what make our epYc community so special and what keeps people coming back even on the tough weeks.

Make Resetting Easy with Memberships

The hardest part of sticking to a new routine isn’t motivation, it’s friction. If every time you want to train you have to debate whether to book, decide what you can afford, or worry about running out of PAYG credits, it becomes easy to skip.

That’s why our memberships are designed to make training simple.

With a membership, you:

Remove the guesswork — just book and show up.
Can train more often without stressing about credits.
Have the freedom to mix classes and find your perfect balance.
Save money compared to PAYG.

This September, take advantage of that fresh-start energy. Start small, treat your training as a commitment, mix strength with recovery, and lean on your community. With the right mindset, you’ll be amazed at how quickly the progress comes back.
