#ThePleasureOfWalking

In summer, our rhythm changes. Everything slows down. The body breathes more calmly, the mind is freed from noise, and the days encourage you to reconnect with the simpler things in life.

 

Walking and taking care of ourselves is no longer a formality but a conscious act. We once again feel the ground under our feet, the air on our faces, the pleasure of moving without haste.

 

With Rolser, every step feels lighter. Our trolley not only helps you carry less weight, but it also accompanies you in a slower, healthier and more sustainable lifestyle. Because life is also about these everyday journeys. And summer is the perfect excuse to enjoy them again.

Interview with Sonia Aguilocho from Original Espai Pilates

What does conscious living mean to you?

 

Living consciously is to be present, to fully enjoy every moment, because in truth it is the only thing we have. At Original Espai Pilates we work focusing on precisely that: connecting with the present moment, with the “here and now”. We focus on what we call “No Mind” living, letting go of the mental noise to reconnect with oneself.


How does movement, such as pilates or paddle surfing, help you maintain that balance?

 

Movement strengthens us both physically and mentally. On the physical side, in Pilates we talk about the strength of the “Centre”, that core of the body made up of a set of muscles from which our energy and balance emerges. Whether on a board in Sup Pilates or in everyday life, this inner work helps us to stay grounded, present and connected to life.


What about walking? What does this simple way of moving provide us with?

 

Walking connects us with what is most essential. Every step we take with awareness brings us safety, stability and presence. It is a simple yet powerful way to reconnect with our body and the environment, as well as being essential for our health.


What role does Rolser play in your daily life? Why do you use it?

 

Rolser is part of my daily routine. It accompanies me at every step, whether I’m on my way to the gym, to the beach or to the market. Their bags are resistant, practical, light and their designs are full of colour and textures, which makes them perfect for any moment of the day. I use them because they allow me to move freely, and have everything I need close at hand, without compromising on style. Walking with Rolser means walking in comfort.

They are highly functional, we love them!

 

What do you carry inside your Rolser when you come to paddle surf or do pilates?

 

At every Sup Pilates session my Rolser is full of things I need: trainers, spare swimming costume, towel, toilet bag, speaker, water bottle and some fruit. Everything I need to enjoy the moment and make everything so much easier.


What would you say to someone who feels they don’t have time to stop?

 

We live in a society that pushes us to always move fast, and we often forget about ourselves. But personal well-being should be a priority. Our students prove this every day: taking time, moving, breathing, connecting with the sea in summer… it’s the best gift you can give yourself.

 

What do you think the “Pleasure of Walking” campaign brings?

 

Collaborating in the campaign has been an exceedingly enriching experience. At Original Espai Pilates we share the same philosophy as Rolser: a healthy, natural, conscious and balanced life. Walking, moving, taking care of yourself… these are simple pleasures that make you feel good inside and out.
