(저장필수)내일은 차곡차곡 쌓아올려 Side Flow 도전해봐요💗
내일은 회원님들 반응 터지는 이 옆구리 운동 어때요😝
“오늘의 메인동작은 [Side Bend]다” 라고 생각하며 연결 Flow 시퀀스 준비하기
먼저 기본 동작으로 관상면의 움직임인 측면 굴곡(side bend)을
1.One long line으로 진행해요
저는 사선으로 뻗어나는 듯한 concentric 버티는 힘에 집중해요!
2.Full Range으로 Barrel 까지 움직이기
위쪽 옆구리를 끌어올리며, 무언가를 넘어가는 듯한 eccentric 근육이 길어지는 힘에 집중해요!
⭐️올릴때도 힘들게, 내릴때도 힘들게!
3.4.5 + One long line/ Full range 움직임들을 플러스👍🏻
상체를 들어 올리며 체간 회전(Rotation)을 더해 복사근에 깊은 자극을 주세요.
측면 근육 + 복사근을 동시에 단련할 수 있는,
이중자극 (Double stimulus)이 가능한 아주 효과적인 복합 움직임이에요💛
해보시면 옆구리가 묵직하게,,자극 잘 들어올꺼예요
회원님들도 만족하며,소리지르시면서 해내는 동작들입니다♥️
Taking the Side Bend on the Cadillac to the next level.

Every side bend creates space. Every twist releases what you don’t need.

Grasshopper, Scorpio, Side bend. Which one is your favorite challenge?
Side bend looks simple but this is one of the most common form mistakes we see 👀
The moment you lower, the body wants to rotate forward instead of staying long and lateral.
Imagine your back is against a wall — lengthen first, then bend to the side like you’re moving between two panes of glass 🤍

Classical Pilates Mermaid Kneeling Variations
Last week I shared photos of Joe Pilates demonstrating Side Bend on the mat in two ways- one with the palm up and the other with the palm down. Both images appeared in his book, Return to Life Through Contrology- each in one in a different edition.
These hand positions can vary in other exercises as well. In this video, I’m demonstrating two different versions of Mermaid Kneeling with the Wunda Chair. Palm up or palm down? Which do you prefer?
Practicing these slight variations of what you feel most comfortable with, or what you typically do, is an important step towards advancing your work. You challenge your habits, improve your mind-body connections, and develop a closer relationship with your apparatus.
This Friday in my Virtual Wunda Chair class, we’ll work with some of these slight variations and connect with some big results!

⚡ Reformer ✨Arms Series Facing Side – Preparación a Side Bend (una mano en strap)
Esta serie en Pilates Reformer se realiza en posición lateral sobre el carro, en una preparación a Side Bend, con una mano sujetando el strap. Desde esta organización, el cuerpo debe mantener alineación, estabilidad pélvica y activación del powerhouse, mientras el brazo ejecuta diferentes movimientos contra la resistencia del resorte.
⭐El objetivo principal es integrar el trabajo de brazos, hombro y cintura escapular con la estabilidad lateral del tronco. Al mismo tiempo, se activa profundamente la musculatura oblicua y los estabilizadores de la cadera, creando una conexión funcional entre tren superior y centro.
♦️Variantes de la serie
💙Biceps Curl
Fortalece bíceps y estabilizadores del hombro mientras el tronco mantiene control lateral.
💙Hug a Tree
Movimiento de abrazo que activa pectorales y musculatura escapular, desarrollando control y estabilidad del hombro mientras el centro sostiene la organización del cuerpo.
💙Overhead con Side Bend elevando cadera
Se integra el trabajo del brazo con la elevación de la pelvis, intensificando la activación de oblicuos y la estabilidad lateral.
💙Sosteniendo cadera arriba + círculo de brazo
Desafía la estabilidad del Side Bend mientras el brazo realiza círculos controlados, desarrollando fuerza, coordinación y control tridimensional.
⭐Beneficios
✅ Fortalece brazos, hombros y cintura escapular
✅Activa profundamente oblicuos y musculatura lateral del tronco
✅Mejora la estabilidad pélvica y el control del powerhouse
✅Desarrolla coordinación entre tren superior y centro
✅Aumenta movilidad y control del hombro en patrones funcionales
Una serie que demuestra cómo en Pilates el trabajo de brazos siempre nace desde el centro y se organiza desde la estabilidad del cuerpo.

Where is your C-curve in Side Bend?
Do you find it underneath the waist… or are you trying to create the curve through the top line?
Two different places to put your attention.
Two very different ways of seeing the same exercise.
So, when you teach or practice Side Bend…
where are you looking for the C-curve?
I’ve built a membership just for Pilates teachers 💫
Not just for practicing Pilates, but for actually learning how to teach it.
Comment FOUNDATION and I’ll send you my free 30 minute Foundation class.
This is the exact starting point from my Built in the Mat 4 week challenge, where we don’t rush into choreography or advanced layers… we learn the method properly, the way it was originally intended to be taught.
We move step by step: Foundation → Progressive → Advanced, so you understand how to build a class, not just do one.
And just to be clear… Foundation doesn’t mean easy.
It means slowing things down enough to really understand what you’re looking at as a teacher: how movement is organised, what you’re actually cueing, and how strength is built from the inside out.
