Millstream Pilates, Wallingford Videos

Getting my body started for the day! But a little slower than this!

We’re not always perfect 🤣 A #Pilates teachers out take on thigh stretch with #extension I filmed myself as I’m trying to conquer head alignment… as a #cyclist my head just loves to bob forwards and I loose the connection of the lower traps…. Anyway, not enough springs to support the #eccentric stretch in my #quads - they shouted, well more screamed and taught me a lesson 🤣 I suspect they’ll shout for a day or two of #doms #experimenting #pilatesteacher #pilatesreformer #thighstretch #alignment #notenoughsprings 🤣

It’s great to have a prop for foot work 🦶🦶🐾🐾🐾🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛😻 One of Morris’s fave daily habits 🤣 and a great way to keep moving those toes! #footlove #barefootgirl #catlover #britishblue #britishshorthair #purry #footwork #pilates#pilatesteacher #bodycontrolpilates #thefootcollective #vivobarefoothealthbroadcast #posture #gait #footmechanics #anatomyinmotion #posturefit #wonkybodies #furbaby #catsofinstagram

The Magic that occurs when it’s magic circle ⭕️ week! Closed chain movement assisting them in feeling their way into climbing the tree rather than pulling their way 🤣 A big exercise that becomes easier with the magic of the circle! #spinalflexion #hipextension #dorsiflexion #corecontrol #balance #magiccircle #pilatesring #burningringoffire #pilates #bodycontrolpilates #pilatesteacher #radleypilates #radley

A dip into our allotment part 2! #beetroots doing well. #potatoes are up And the fruit cage is looking fab! This years project is cut flowers and a #nature bed …. There could be a few practice runs at it! 🤣 it teaches patience! Now just to get everything else in!

A little dip into our allotment! Our little orchard and the salad 🥗 beds - still much to do. And a big project in progress! #fruittrees #plum #allotment #allotmentlife #fitforlife #pilates #pilatesteacher

Happy International Pilates Day! This is the exercise that changed my life! Knee openings! An amazing Physio prescribed this for me 11 years ago for my hip. I have a labral tear and the muscles had adapted to the degree that my leg was permantly turned out. I couldn't walk properly and was in a lot of pain. I couldn't believe that this one small exercise, carried correctly, several times per day could significantly reduce the pain and restore my hip and leg alignment to the degree of avoiding surgery and giving me my hobbies back. ❤️ This exercise, along with the Physio inspired me to change my career and retrain to be a Pilates teacher so I could help people in the same way and share what is such a simple solution for pain management to as many people as possible. What’s the one exercise that changed your life?

Some of you may remember my lovely client Rob, he has Parkinson Disease. It effects everyone differently - for Rob, he has #Camptocormia, his hip flexors and abdominals permanently flex pulling him forward, making it impossible for his hips to extend. He also struggles with coordination. But, pop him on the #pilates Tower with some #classical music and he’s conducting those legs beautifully whilst working this hip extensors and stretch his flexors ❤️❤️ Music therapy helps clients with #Parkinsons tap into and organise movement patterns - it really it quite magical! #bodycontrolpilatesteacher #pilatesforparkinsons #musictherapy #movementismedicine #parkinsonsdisease #lowbackpainpractitioner
