It’s been such a special 6 months since completing my L3 mat Pilates & L3 Reformer Pilates qualifications with @thebodyclinicliverpool ✨

From teaching so many amazing clients. Growing with them and getting to know them more and more each week. To teaching across some of my fave studios in Liverpool. I feel so fulfilled in my decision.

Every day has been a learning curve tho, I’ve learnt so much over the past 6 months. From feedback, attending workshops, constantly having my nose in a anatomy or biometrics book, I am so excited to see where this journey takes me.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported me by attending a class or showing encouragement - here’s to the next 6 months!

Because movement is allowed to be fun!!! 🪩🌈✨💖

My Friday disco reformer flows are a blend of contemporary & classical Pilates exercises. Maintaining the focus on breath, alignment, controlology, concentration & flow but with a little bit of fun and a whole lot of spice! 🌶️

Open to all genders & levels

Your reformer is your dance floor 🪩🪩🪩 by @probablyatpilates

✨💖 TAKE THE RISK OR LOSE THE CHANCE 💖✨

I spent years debating on whether or not I should take the leap onto training to be a Pilates instructor, I’m now 6 months into teaching and the only thing I regret is not doing it sooner.

I spent over a decade doing what I thought was right for everyone else, suffering immensely with anxiety and depression, crying at my desk, stressing over money, worrying about the direction my life was going in and simply allowing myself to set in so much unhappiness,

In the past 6 months I can’t even describe how much I’ve grown, not just as an instructor but as a person. Although there’s days where the imposter syndrome takes over, I feel so confident and excited about this new era of my life. This is just the beginning 💖 taken in Liverpool by @probablyatpilates

No because i was shaking even after the beginner example ☁️✨🪐

One thing I will always do is challenge you to take the progression, you might surprise yourself! And if you don’t like it, the foundation is there for you to take it back a notch and modify for what feels right for you and your body.

Challenging stability and coordination is always a go to for me, it really helps with that kind body connection. Noticing where you feel the movement, working your brain and being truly present in the movement - no thinking about what’s happened that day, or all the things you need to do. Just you moving your body.

We had a variation of this flow in this weeks Monday night beginner & all levels class at @noa.wellness_ and my beginners even progressed to the intermediate option. Safe to say I felt so proud and love seeing people become more confident and trusting of just how amazing their bodies are. We can do hard things!! 💖

My current fave lil short box arm & shoulder flow 🙏

*video is sped up x1.4

Springs
🟡 (light) short loops - beginner
🔵 (medium) short loops - intermediate+
(Can offer modification to long loops)

Also added the ball in between the knees with a constant squeeze for some inner thigh & pelvic floor activation

Watchpoints & cues
- don’t allow the arms to go past the body
- “imagine pulling shoulder blades into your back pockets” (helps to eliminate shrugging into shoulders)
- “grow tall through crown of head” taken in Liverpool by @probablyatpilates

Wise words from queen Dolly ✨🦋🤠💘

Imposter syndrome has had me in a chokehold the past week or two. As a new instructor it can be so overwhelming to manage.

Social media as a new instructor is a minefield, so much comparison and rights and wrongs which are opinions based more than factual.

So, I’m trying to focus on how far I’ve come over the past 9 months of learning & teaching and focusing all that worry into what I bring to classes and trying to ensure that clients leave class feeling better than when they went in. ✨ taken in Liverpool by @probablyatpilates

Just some little September reminders as we head into the next chapter of the year. A new month, a new season approaching. There’s always so much pressure when it comes to September, to rush all of the goals we may have set ourselves for the year, to ‘get back on track’ as the new terms starts, but take this as your gentle reminder that small progress is still progress.

Take a little moment for yourself this week, whether that’s some you time at a Pilates class, or taking some extra time to unwind of an evening.

September scaries are real 💘

Plan a Reformer full body short box flow with me! 🌶️💫✨

*footage is sped up x2*

All on a blue spring 🩵
(Can do on a yellow for more spice on the legs & inner thighs, but change to a blue for arms)

- kneeling splits: adding rotation & pulses
- side planks: starting with modified side plank. Then passing twist & hip dips
- serve the platter: into single arms & adding rotation
- lift and lowers
- bear hugs into chest expansion
- lunges: layering with scooter & overhead raises
- lateral lunges: adding rotation & hold half way and pulse to finish

It’s never just Pilates, it’s so much more than that 💖

Beginner classes at @hotcurlpilates.studio always fill my cup up so much. Seeing people start their journeys, begin to trust their bodies and dedicate time for yourself is so special to witness as a teacher.

Each week you’ll grow, get stronger and understand your body and how the movement should feel. I’m beee to help guide you, make you feel safe and of course, push you when I know you can.

Join me every Friday and Saturday in 📍Huyton

A reminder that you don’t need to have a certain body type, be a certain weight or look a certain way to move your body and attend classes.

Movement is crucial for you body, but also your mind.

Let’s chase strong & not skinny 💘
