🥰🥰🥰 What a HAPPY TEACHER I am! 🥰🥰🥰 Some weeks just flow 🌊🌊🌊It’s just the best when our class members report amazing things have happened or felt in their minds and bodies.It feels like we are slowly chipping away at the disconnection from ourselves, a little at a time.Getting back to actually *feeling* in our bodies, actually being *aware* of sensations, *recognising* and *managing* emotions and *appreciating* our own physical body, our mind, our nervous system… Just a few snippets of feedback from class participants this week…“I never want to come to class. Ever. But I love it when I’ve been. I’m always glad.”“Loved this week. I just feel like I really needed it. I had an achey left leg from my hip all the way down to my ankle. I also felt anxious and irritable at the beginning of the session. By the end, my pain had completely gone and I felt much more grounded and calm ☺️ Slightly achey this morning too. Really enjoying gym and Pilates in the same day, seems to be working 💪 ❤️”“What I have found is, over time, I have become more aware and noticed more from when I first started out.”“Happy 😁I finally got back to yoga. I’m still as unbalanced and uncoordinated as ever and I have no idea what is going on, but I forgot how much I love it 🥰 (Last night, after returning to Yoga) I didn’t even wake up for the loo. That hasn’t happened in forever!”And this, *THIS* is why we do it! 🥰🥰🥰Get back to being present and aware in your body and your mind, with Mind/Body practices. Heal the disconnect that modern life steers us towards. Thank you to you all for showing up, doing the work and appreciating the benefits too. Want to join us?

What the HELL is Yoga? Everyone wants to know the answer to this. Most think Yoga is just about the physical practice. Here’s some other things that it CAN be… just off the top of my tiny head 😁⤵️Well… WHAT do you want it to be?💠 Calm time?💠 Quiet time?💠 Anxiety reducing?💠 Space to sit with yourself?💠 No distractions?💠 Moving? 💠 Stillness?💠 Breathing?💠 Holding space for yourself?💠 Having space held for you?💠 Time away from screens/phones/blue light?💠 Being kind to yourself?💠 Spending time with others?💠 A way to improve sleep? 💠 Connection with yourself? 💠 Finding alignment with body, mind and spirit? WHO NEEDS THIS?WHO NEEDS YOGA?EVERYONE! Anyone and everyone living in this modern world, where we no longer really connect with ourselves, with others and with our bodies. Anyone with a demanding or time-consuming or stressful job. Anyone parenting children or caring for relatives.Anyone feeling low.Anyone who turns to other substances to manage their emotions. Anyone, living in this modern world. Now. Today. Yoga is accessible for all. Everyone. All ages. All abilities. Yoga is ESPECIALLY for those who never contemplated Yoga before…🏵️Yoga: 7:15pm on Tuesdays at Normanton Parish Rooms.🏵️💌💌💌Drop me a message or leave a comment below to sign up. Limited spaces available.
Why I don’t create content on how to ‘fix’ specifics… and what I do instead… ⤵️I believe EVERYTHING is connected ♾️♾️♾️The human body is a complicated and intricate jigsaw🧩, affected and influenced by what we put in it, on it and how we live ☀️💊💉🍔🥗🍳🥩🍺☕️🥤🏃🏼🏋🏼🧘🏼♂️💤🌱📱💻🎮We cannot possibly know or diagnose what’s going on in someone’s body - as Pilates teachers - we are not qualified for that. But what we can do is create harmony and balance⚖️ in the body . We achieve this via movement, strengthening, watching and observing. Helping you, as a participant, to observe and be aware of your own body, your limitations, your strengths, your imbalances and offering techniques to improve them. The human body is COMPLEX! Every body is different.We can’t guess what’s going on. Just move.Daily.With intention.With awareness. Movement is medicine 💊Motion is lotion 🧴
WHY YOU SHOULD PRACTICE PILATES WITH ME…⭐️The goal of a Pilates practice is to create and maintain a strong, functional and symmetrical body, pain free, with optimal posture, mobility at the joints and a healthy core and spine. ⭐️We use different Pilates techniques and exercises, plus a variety of equipment to ensure you get the most from every session. ⭐️I’m a qualified Level 3 clinical Pilates teacher of 15 years, trained by physiotherapists and Pilates teacher trainers with a wealth of experience. I am always learning with continual CPD (Continuous Professional Development) and my own studies too. ⭐️Pilates is for anyone and everyone, gym goers, those who are more sedentary, athletes, those with ailments, illness, disability, health conditions, beginners, experienced, newbies, oldies, those who want to improve themselves, those who want to manage their wellness, any age, any size, any BODY. ⭐️We offer levels of exercise for all abilities, via modifications and progressions to suit.⭐️Pilates has cognitive, mental and emotional benefits to add to all of the physical benefits. It’s a multifaceted system and isn’t called Mind/Body exercise for nothing! ⭐️From where I’m standing, EVERYONE NEEDS Pilates. Yes, even YOU 🫵🏼Do you NEED Pilates? The new 6 week terms begin this week. DM to grab your spot. 📲📲📲

It’s NOT a JOKE! ❌I get it.You don’t know where to start.You don’t know what to do.You don’t have enough time.You feel a bit embarrassed that you are at this point, because you never used to be. But as you’ve got older, here we are! At this point. But you DO have time. One hour a week is a starting point. There are people who can guide you. Do something about. Don’t wait. DMs open if you’d like to discuss improving how you feel and move in your body. You only have one body…
