MEET EVA. @movewitheva

Movement for the long run. Eva’s approach is about working with the body rather than pushing through it - building strength, mobility and flexibility through slow, controlled movement.

Expect a powerful flow that works deep, boosts circulation and leaves the body a little freer than before.

Trick question. I can tell you exactly when. It was when yoga became so damn trendy, every influencer was doing it, every one was taking photos in more or less poorly executed yoga poses.

And then, everyone did a yoga teacher training. Two weeks in India, Bali, wherever else was hot and boom you’re unleashed onto society as a “200h international yoga alliance certified teacher”. Previous movement background? Not required. Anatomical knowledge? The very basics will do. Biomechanics? We don’t know her.

That’s when yoga got diluted from a niche interest that a few people were practicing with people who had devoted lifetimes to it to something suddenly everyone was “qualified” to “teach”. So many of the in person classes in Berlin (where mediocrity is celebrates if you look “cool”) especially became senseless assortments of random poses, insufficient cues and no transitions, weird preachy spiritual nonsense all tied together with an incense, an Om and a Namaste at the end, uttered with almost comical gravitas.

That’s when I stopped going to in person classes and started practicing exclusively online with people whose deep understanding of human bodies I had always admired. (Shout out to @kaylalanielsen and @meghancurrieyoga

Now Yoga is out of style and with it body positivity (was that ever real?). Now we do “Pilates” and GLP1s. And I fear Pilates is going to suffer the same fate. When too many people jump on a trend, the essence is lost. Teacher trainings become substance less cash grabs and every influencer is now a Pilates teacher forcing their course down your throat and pushing teachers with less of a following but years of experience and a deep cognitive but also embodied understanding of their teaching out of your field of vision.

Ok rant over. Happy international yoga day.
This probably belongs on substack

I love mixing disciplines, I love creating flows that feel good and create balanced strength throughout the body, I love using breath to inspire movement. What does the Pilates police think of this flow? Let me know in the comments

Add a warmup in the beginning and a stretchy cool down at the end, sprinkle in a couple of pulses and do each exercise for ca 10 reps to make this a spicy Zero equipment mobility focused Pilates class. The video is sped up x5 so sync the reps to your breath and make them slow and juicy.

Power Pilates flow of the week. Medium spicy all body weight flow.

This was filmed @hi.studios.berlin Kurfürstenstraße. I am teaching there every Monday 8:00-8:45, 9:00-9:45 and 12:30-13:15. There is a live stream for all three of these so you can tune in from home and do it in your PJs 🤍

Do you want a full length video of this?

(Don’t forget to do both sides)

Warning: the studio version of this is sssppiicyyy 🌶️🌶️🌶️ stop underestimating Pilates. It’s actual military training. Look it up.

Here‘s yesterdays full body pilates inspired workout.

Do it slide by slide.

Recipe for 30-40 minute full body burn:

Quick warm up then 8-16 reps of each exercise (more for the quicker ones, less for the slow ones). After you complete the last one, start over from the first and do it all on the other side.
Let me know in the comments if you try it out and let me know if you need further instructions too x
(Dance breaks optional)

Try this little flow for happy hips.
You can slow it down and add longer holds and don’t forget to do both sides x
