The Tendon Stretch ✨

This exercise isn’t just about flexibility or “getting your heels down.” It’s a whole-body connection.
 An opportunity to explore how breath, control, lift and length all work together. 🙏🏼

On the Reformer, Tendon Stretch reveals how evenly you can load through the feet,connect through the legs, and lift up out of your centre.

This week, I’m cueing my fabulous teacher Emily to refine her movement. To find that deeper internal connection rather than following the rhythm (which is also important in this exercise)

We slowed it down… To feel and to move from a place of true inner strength 💪🏼 the kind that builds that internal heat 🔥 or shower 🚿 as Joseph Pilates called it.

Over the next two weeks I’ll share how we continued to build on this, exploring Tendon Stretch through other apparatus,new cues and subtle shifts to find even greater connection.

Keep your eyes peeled next week for where else we explore another deeper intention of Tendon stretch.

Meet Geoff & Mike, proof that Pilates isn’t just for ballerinas and bendy influencers.

Every week, these two show up to their duet session at our Primrose Hill studio, putting in the work, sharing a few laughs, and walking out taller, stronger, and more energised.

It also helps keep their bodies as young as their minds.😁

Pilates is for every body, at any age and any level. Consistency is what matters, and these two have nailed that!

Thinking about trying a duet session? Bring a friend and we’ll take care of the rest. 💪

You may or may not have seen that our Founder Gaby has launched a new column in The Pilates Journal!

As the Founder of Exhale Pilates London, Gaby has seen it all, the highs, the hustle, and the heart it takes to run a studio in today’s world.

Her second piece dives into the raw realities of being a Pilates studio owner, the parts we don’t always talk about. It’s honest, personal, and hopefully inspiring for anyone walking this path or thinking about it.

Pilates is her passion, but building a business around it and juggling motherhood? That’s been the real journey.

Click the link in our bio to read the article. We hope you enjoy it 🫶

We just had to jump on this trend with our Founder Gaby. The original list was twice as long but that will stay between us 😅

Let us know which ones resonate with you the most?

Tendon Stretch Series: Part 2

How to build confidence and control off the Reformer 💪

Tendon stretch is an exercise that can often feel intimidating and we get it.

There’s the balance to consider, which becomes even more challenging when your arms are reaching behind you. It also demands a deep connection to your powerhouse which is why it’s so important to build up to this exercise gradually. 🙏🏼

In this video, our wonderful teacher Emily demonstrates how to use the Wall Unit frame to practice balance and activate those stabilising muscles that make all the difference once you return to the Reformer.

This is the bridge that can help you from feeling fearful to fearless ☺️

Finding support, strength, and awareness in other parts of the studio helps your body truly understand the movement, and that’s exactly what makes the Pilates system so magical and endlessly fascinating for both the client and teacher.

I love finding new ways for us to get stronger and more connected to exercises we find challenging. That’s why learning Classical Pilates as a system can never, EVER get boring. It constantly stimulates both the brain and body.

Next week, we’ll show another piece of apparatus to continue building the strength and control needed to take everything we’ve learned back to the Reformer. 💪🏼

I hope you find these breakdowns helpful 🫶🏼
