Maintain good posture
Bending over too much is notorious in bikini competitions. In an attempt to overcompensate for a lack of glute development, I often see athletes over arch or bend over too much.
Here are a few tips to maintaining good posture:
✅ Keep your chest up as if a string is pulling your chest to the ceiling
✅ Pay attention to your glutes to see if they start to lose their shape when you arch or bend over
✅ Maintaining good posture will help you keep your balance while you transition
DM me if you need to schedule an in person or virtual private or would like to attend a group class or if you need recommendations for other coaches in the area.

Practice being on the "diagonal"
Often times during prejudging, athletes will wait on the diagonal until they are called out or present their individual routine.
Judges are definitely looking at you when you are on the diagonal so ensure that you are presenting the right angle to the judges.
Practice and perfect your posing!

Group posing vs Privates
There's a purpose for both but the benefits vary. I think it's important to have a combination of both during your prep and here's why.
Benefits of a private session
✅ Emphasis on learning the basics
✅ Individualized instruction
✅ Step by step instruction at your pace
✅ Focused physique assessment
✅ Personalizing your style
Benefits of a group class
✅ More affordable option
✅ Great way to prepare for stage
✅ Getting feedback as you are compared to others
✅ Opportunity to meet others
✅ Work out your timing and spacing

Grateful for this beautiful testimony!
Posing does not come easy for me. It’s awkward, uncomfortable and I’ve got a had a hard time coordinating what’s happening between my head, my feet and my hands and have had a lot of years of frustration. It’s so frustrating when you a lifelong athlete, set on perfection, know you have worthy package and know you are not showcasing your physique to best of your ability. I spent an hour 1-on-1 with and a group class with and she was the first to make it all “click” for me. She was hands on, practical and broke it down in a really tangible way for me. I still have a lot of polishing to do in the next 8 weeks before I start my competition season, but I finally have the foundation to build the details on. If you are a bikini, figure, wellness or physique athlete I highly recommend you follow
and take your posing advice from someone who talks the talk and walks the walk. Hire a coach who can see things from the eye of an IFBB judge, coach and an IFBB . Lot’s of posing coaches out there, and I know there are awesome ones but keep in mind that just because someone you look up to has a killer posing routine, does not necessarily make them a good “teacher” that has the eye and expertise to break it down and find what works best for YOU in the eye of the judges. Thanks Tanji 😘🫶 And thanks .ifbbbikinipro and my Top Gun fitness fam for still including me, supporting me and letting this old dog hang ♥️💪🏼 Bonus photo of my 8year old daughter Lola and Tanji, who she aspires to be when she grows up 🥰 Gotta have them remodels!!!

I always teach to make each transition picture perfect as if a picture was being taken of every transition to the next pose. This is how you can present your best physique throughout your posing routine.

I love details and have developed a niche for catching the details in every pose for my clients who are working on elevating their posing routine.

It is evident that Tianna .weymouth_ifbbpro has great glute development in both pics but a slight adjustment to her arm also shows athleticism in her upper body while balancing out her physique and presenting a better overall look!
If you don't have an eye for these details, hire someone who does.
I am limited in how many 1 on 1 privates (virtually or in person) I can take on but I do have group posing classes twice a month at our office in Bellevue, WA.
DM me if you would like to get on my mailing list or if you need recommendations for other posing coaches in your area 👍🏾

The behavior that keeps many people from achieving success is self-limiting beliefs. ... Self-limiting beliefs includes thinking you are too inexperienced for a job, believing you shouldn't take a risk because you'll fail, thinking it is too late, or you don't need more money because you are comfortable.

The only way to gain experience is to start learning, failing allows us to learn and grow which helps us achieve success, It's never too late, and moving beyond our comfort zones can create a life we never imagined.
Be accountable to your thoughts and beliefs and if they do not serve you, redesign your thoughts and beliefs and be RENEWED 🙌🏾😁

There are a variety of figure presentation poses you can choose for your presentation routine. Take the time to assess different poses and how they look on your physique versus copying what you see the pros do.
You can see in this comparison how these two poses show different strengths in her legs and overall physique. is in great shape and just a few weeks out from her next show.
She is available for posing instruction as well! 😊🙌🏾

. This is an effort to "pause" our regular day to day social, work, athletic etc posts and use this time to post more education on bringing awareness to the BlackLivesMatter movement and how we, as a nation, can take active steps to change the culture of injustice and inequality that exists today. I know it can be overwhelming for those of you who do not live with this daily, but we challenge you to be uncomfortable and do your part to evoke change.

Thank you and for this great message! Stay positive, hopeful and patient. We will get through this and be stronger than ever, not taking anything for granted.
Quarter Turns:
If you are a Figure or Women’s Physique competitor, you must learn and perfect your quater turns. When judges look at the line up on stage, our eyes are drawn to those who get into their next pose smoothly and without fidgeting. Here are some instructions for one style of quarter turns.
👉 Take a small step forward with your left foot.
👉 Pivot of the balls of your left foot
👉 Shift your weight to your right as you
👉 Bring your left foot to your right foot
Follow and practice these steps until you can perform the transition fluidly.
During the transition, be sure to do the following:
✅ Stay tall and maintain good posture
✅ Relax your arms and let them flow
✅ Spot and look as you turn
✅ Do not bend the legs during the transition
These are just a few tips to strengthen your quarter turn transitions.
Remember “Step, pivot and connect!”
If you need help with your posing, contact me to learn about my 🏆Posing Academy packages for online or in person privates or to join in on one of my group posing classes.

UPDATE and CLARIFICATION on the new NPC/IFBB bikini rule change from :
I has a conversation with to clarify exactly WHAT angles qualify as the now banned teacup pose. And he said that The Arnold show this year is what caused them to make this rule change official after several of the top 6 in the pro show did some variation of the Teacup pose and it made them realize how prevalent the pose had become and wanted to put an end to it. He sent this image as examples of where it was used. This visual is much more helpful because it is NOT just in that front pose. It is your transitions as well.
For everyone thinking that it is just the hand being cocked up, no. It is the elbow bend at ANY height, turning the arm away from your body, as shown here. 💃

Classic Physique is really blowing up!
What a great division that celebrates bodybuilding and provides another option for those genetically inclined to stay within their height and weight limits.
These are photos from the weekend posing classes at , and
We believe in training all the men’s divisions in the Classic bodybuilding poses. It’s important to build a foundation for your posing!
If you are looking for help in your posing or looking to see how you fare in a class, DM me. Don’t worry about revealing your physique before a show. It’s wise to get critiqued before a show and learn what you need to do to improve BEFORE the show!
