This class took 15 minutes...

You’ll see it go by in seconds.


Looks quick and easy sped up like this, but behind every scroll is real time, real effort and a bit of wobble now and then.


No fancy edits, just me on the mat doing what I do most weeks. Some days feel strong, some feel slow, but showing up always helps.


If you’ve fallen out of routine, you’re not the only one. Start small, start again, it still counts.

Functional Pilates for Everyday Life


Here’s a fact for you, Pilates isn’t just about building strength, it actually helps your brain and body work together better when you move through daily life.


This week, we’ve been doing real, functional moves like squats to get up from the sofa, knee drops to make getting in and out of the car easier, spine twists for rolling out of bed and more.


All these moves are training your body to be stronger and your brain to be sharper about how you move. That’s called body awareness, or proprioception if you want it's official title!


It means you stand taller, balance better, move smoother and even lower your chances of trips and falls.


So when you do those squats or heel raises, you’re not just building muscle, you’re teaching your brain how to keep you moving safely and easily every day.


Next time you try a move, take a moment to really feel how your body and brain team up to get it done.

Functional Movement


 
 
 

After a week of building strength, today’s focus is on keeping your legs long, loose and ready for movement.


The supine hamstring stretch gently lengthens the back of your leg, all the way up to the hip.


Why is this so important?


🦵 Tight hamstrings can limit your stride and make walking feel uncomfortable or tiring.

🌿 This stretch helps release tension, improve flexibility and keep your walk smooth and enjoyable.

✨ It’s a simple way to support your everyday activity and keep you moving with ease.


👉 Try holding each leg for 30 seconds today
