Glutes on 🔥🔥🔥

Not being dramatic but… this side-lying glute series had all my clients side-eyeing me 👀 It looks simple, but burns deep.

• Open clams
• Leg kick
• Add a little lift
• Just the lift
• Leg sweeps
• Pulse to finish ✨

Can also be done on a mat with just the loop band!

Let me know how it feels 🫶🏻

I’m so excited to finally introduce my new page — @balancedbyissy 🌿

After years of playing competitive sport, I was searching for a new way to move my body — something that felt good but still challenged me. To be honest…. I first tried Pilates because it was “trendy.” But after just a few classes, I was absolutely hooked.

Every time I left the studio, I felt stronger, more confident, and more connected to myself. It wasn’t just a workout — it changed how I felt in my body. It challenged me in the best ways, and helped me in so many others I can’t wait to share more about.

Pilates helped me so much that I knew I wanted to become an instructor and help others feel the same way. I’ve now been teaching for over a year, and after recently moving to Georgia, I felt called to start this page.

@balancedbyissy is a Pilates + wellness space where I’ll be sharing my journey, instructor tips, workouts, and all the ways Pilates has supported me — physically, mentally, emotionally… and even hormonally. I’m truly hoping it can support you too, whether you’re just getting started or already obsessed like me!!!

The name “Balanced by Issy” came from my own journey — learning that life isn’t about being perfect, it’s about finding your balance. With movement. With food. With relationships. With everything. I want this to be a space that reminds you that balance looks different for everyone.. and that’s the beauty of it.

I’m so excited to build a little community here, grow together, and share something I really love 🤍

If this resonates with you, I’d love for you to follow along — or send it to someone who’s on their own wellness or Pilates journey.

So happy you’re here with me!
Issy 🫶🏼

60 minute classical inspired pilates flow with a functional twist 🖤

Loved the flow of this class and how smoothly each series transitioned into the next. We hit some of those classical favorites like rolling like a ball, swimming, teaser and push ups, then brought in the slider at the end for some standing work and a little reformer feel on the mat.

Let me know what you think in the comments + if you have any requests for next week 😙🤍

Any chance I get to use the tower in a reformer class, I’m taking it!!!

There are sooo many ways to use the tower when it’s attached to the reformer, but these are a few of my current favs 🤍

Save this one for some Reformer x Tower inspo ✨

This week’s reformer pilates flow was definitely on the contemporary side with some classical variations mixed in throughout!!

We had flying lunges, a single arm breaststroke variation, lots of full body integration + some fun series I’ve been loving lately.

Which series are you stealing for your next class?! 👀

Save for some reformer inspo & follow for more weekly flows 🤍
