This is your Monday reminder to stand tall, keep your chin up and stay centred no matter what this week throws at you.

And if all else fails, rewatch this serene video of Ellie to calm the nervous system and remind yourself of this wonderful Joseph Pilates quote 😅

Bigger is not always better.

We know that legs in straps is a popular Pilates exercise. Sure, it can feel nice to move your legs in big circles.

However, the focus of frog and legs circles is learning to move your legs from a strong and stable centre, ideally keeping inside the frame of the reformer.

When you control the movement not only do you strengthen your core, hips and mid line connection, you also work on stabilising the pelvis and massaging the lower back.

Less is sometimes more and when you move with intention you get much more bang for your buck.

Thigh Stretch

It might be called a Thigh Stretch, but it should really be called Booty Burner 🍑🔥

To perform this exercise you need to be thinking about hinging back with your glutes, hamstrings and core fully engaged.

This will automatically stretch out your thighs but keep your lower back supported and body building strength in all those right places. 💪🏼

Tip
Keep shoulders over hips, abs drawing in and up and lift back up from your glutes and abs for one spicy exercise that becomes a lot more than just a thigh stretch 🌶️

There are so many reasons to do Pilates, but getting long, lean limbs shouldn’t be one of them.

Here’s why…

If you’re long and lean chances are you were born that way and you had that body before you started Pilates.

Here are just a few of the MANY reasons to do Pilates that have nothing to do with long or lean bodies 🫶

1️⃣ Improve your posture so you feel more confident

2️⃣ Move from a strong centre to avoid back injuries

3️⃣ Connect into your body more when you lift weights, in all types of sports and in your every day.

4️⃣ Continue to move with ease into the later years of your life ✨

The Power of the System

We love to educate our clients on the Pilates system if you hadn’t noticed 😉

Whether they are coming for their Discovery session, or have a Private 1-1, we show them ways on how to empower their bodies and mind using the intelligence behind the system. Part of that is doing the same exercise on different apparatus.

Why? Because it hits the body and mind differently

From pumping on the high chair, to footwork on the reformer, you can see how George uses the same movement pattern; but by using different apparatus it targets stability, different muscle groups, and our mind-body connection in very different ways.

Put all those new found connections together with no apparatus, just your body on the mat and you’ll notice how much more strength and intention you work with.

This is the power of the system. This is Pilates

Sometimes you get a review through and think, WOW they have just so nailed our ethos.

Thank you Marina Thomas for this testimonial. It makes all the hard work of staying true to the original method of Joseph Pilates all worthwhile.
