Why I do Pilates & lift weights! At 14 weeks old, big boy Bodhi weighs 28 lbs & he’s only gonna get bigger! I need to be agile to climb over the baby gate, strong enough to pick him up & carry him; get in & out of his crate and play & train both pups! Pilates & lifting is for life, not just to look good. I want to grow old strong, mobile & healthy. What’s your why not? What’s your why? Outfit @vuoriclothing #rescuedogs #pilates #strengthtraining #functionalfitness #mobilitytraining by @beespilates

🐾 ADOPTION ANNOUNCEMENT 🐾 Bodhi has been adopted💙 Sometimes an adoption feels like the beginning of something much bigger. When I received Justin and Brigitte’s application for one of our Rottweiler puppies, their story stopped me in my tracks. They had lost their beloved Rottweiler, Brutus, almost a year earlier. As I got to know them, I realized Brutus wasn’t simply their dog. For Brigitte, he was her dog—that once-in-a-lifetime love. I knew that love. Brutus was to Brigitte what Zelda was to me. Justin works in law enforcement and founded Honor Serve and Support, a nonprofit focused on first-responder mental health and wellness. He was searching for a Rottweiler with the potential to become his service dog and provide support related to PTSD. Reading his application, with my own experiences with PTSD and everything I’ve walked through since losing Zelda, I had a thought I couldn’t shake: Maybe Zelda sent these people my way. Then Justin and Brigitte came to meet the puppies. And they met Bodhi. 💜 Today, Bodhi is home, loved beyond measure and in service-dog training for Justin, with work that may eventually allow him to serve alongside the Police Department. And our little rescue puppy is absolutely crushing it. 🥹 Since his adoption, the three of us have stayed in touch almost daily—talking about Bodhi’s training and shenanigans, but also about Brutus, Zelda and the strange road of grief after losing a dog who was part of your soul. Bodhi isn’t replacing Brutus. That’s not how love works. Sometimes, though, the love they leave behind opens a door we never knew we’d walk through. Justin and I are now talking about ways Honor Serve and Support and Your Love Unleashed may work together in the future. Maybe this is one beautiful adoption. Or maybe Brutus and Zelda somehow helped begin a brand-new chapter for all of us. 💜 Either way… Bodhi is exactly where he’s supposed to be. 🐾 #Rottweiler #servicedogintraining #FirstResponderMentalHealth #YourLoveUnleashed #supportk9 by @beespilates

Rescued with a purpose, and officially home. Meet Bodhi 🐶 Life moves fast, and having the right partner by your side makes all the difference. Bodhi isn’t just joining our family—he’s beginning his training to serve as my personal service animal and support partner. Down the road, he’ll also be right there beside me, helping bring comfort and decompression to our first responder community. At 11 weeks old, his main job right now is nap time and puppy training, but I couldn’t be prouder to watch him grow into his purpose.

Why should you train with me? I can list all my trainings, certificates, my degree, all the workshops, classes, etc as your reason, but the real reason you come see me, is for YOU! You do it for you, for your sanity, your health, to feel better in your body, or you do it so you stay strong & mobile as you age, or to keep up with your kids/grandkids or to play a sport or activity. What’s your reason?? Do it for You! See you in the Mat! Classes are linked in my bio 🩵 #pilates #functionalfitness #workoutmotivation #fitover50 #pilateslife by @beespilates

Been working on Teaser with my student @roseforalastname so I thought I’d show you how to prep for it! There’s a reason teaser isn’t the first exercise in the Pilates repertoire. There are many prep movements we need to practice first in order to execute the move. I show a few here… Any others you’d add to the list ? Stay until the end to see that I can’t always perform it perfectly, which is why it’s called a practice!!! Join me every Tuesday & Friday for some Pilates Mat classes 🎉 Links in bio Give yourself some grace 🩵 #teaser #pilatesteaser #advancedpilates #pilatesmatwork #pilatesteacher by @beespilates

Happy Birthday to the incredible woman who is always right by my side! ❤️ To prove how truly selfless she is, she spent part of her own birthday weekend watching me work before we got to sit down and celebrate with lunch. Thank you for always supporting me, standing with me, and making life so much better. I love you! 🎁🎉 taken in Del Mar, California by @beespilates

3 Pilates Moves that Support Bone Density 🦴 Bone density declines as we age, yay for women ☹️ But, movement is one of the most Powerful tools to protect our bones! These 3 exercises load the body safely, build strength & support better balance. Who doesn’t want that?? 1️⃣ Skating: strengthens hips + challenges balance 2️⃣ Bridge w/ single leg lift: loads the spine & glutes which improves posterior chain 3️⃣ Plank variations: full body strength that supports the spine, overall stability & core CONSISTENCY IS KEY 🔑 #pilatesreformer #pilatestips #pilatesteacher #pilatesclass #reformerclass by @beespilates
