Choosing Both

I’m not choosing between strength training & Pilates. I’m doing both.

I love pilates, for body & mind, mobility & flexibility, it is medicine 🤍

But I also want to be strong!

Strong enough to lift, carry, push, pull, balance, climb, squat, get up off the floor… and keep doing all the things I love like tennis & paddle boarding 🫶

Pilates & strength training complement each other beautifully & yes we can get stronger doing pilates on the mat & reformer but that’s not pilates main goal 🫶

It’s not Pilates or strength training

It’s Pilates & strength training

& at this stage of life, I’m absolutely here for building muscle, getting stronger and moving as well as possible for as long as possible ⭐️

Do you do both? I’d love to know 🤍

This August, my wish for you isn’t that you exercise more…

It’s that you live more 💛

That you say yes to the walks
Yes to the adventures
Yes to the holidays
Yes to playing with the grandchildren
Yes to the garden
Yes to whatever brings you joy

That’s why I’ve created
‘Find Your 10’

✨ 10 minutes

Each week you’ll have 5 videos to follow…

I’ve been taking my Pilates with me… 🌊

One of the wonderful things about my On Demand Pilates Library is that it can come with you, wherever life takes you.

Whether you’re at home, away for the weekend or enjoying a summer holiday, you can always find a session to suit your body, your mood and the time you have available.

It isn’t about finding an hour every day.

It’s about moving consistently.

Some days that might be 10 minutes.

Some days it might be a full Pilates class.

Because over the years I’ve learnt that it’s not perfection that makes the biggest difference…

It’s consistency.

So if you’re already a member, don’t forget to make the most of your library over the summer 💛 or join for just £20 ( including my August challenge too - more on that tomorrow)

And if you’ve been thinking about joining, I’d love to welcome you and help you keep moving, wherever life takes you ☀️

Why did it take me so many years to really understand this?

When I first qualified, I genuinely believed that becoming a better pilates teacher meant learning more exercises, attending more courses, knowing every detail about pilates 🫶

Don’t get me wrong, those things are incredibly valuable. I still love learning & continue to invest in my own professional development ⭐️

But after nearly 26 years of teaching, I’ve realised that the best teachers aren’t necessarily the ones who know the most exercises

They’re the ones who truly see the person in front of them

Every client walks into the studio with different strengths, challenges, goals and experiences. Great teaching isn’t about fitting everyone into the same exercise. It’s about choosing, adapting and cueing movement that’s right for that client, on that day & knowing WHY you’re doing it ♥️

That simple shift in thinking has transformed the way I teach

And it’s the philosophy at the heart of my CIMSPA-approved Reformer Pilates Teacher Training Programme.

Of course, you’ll learn the fundamental Reformer exercises But just as importantly, you’ll develop the practical teaching skills, observation, cueing, programming and clinical reasoning needed to teach real people with confidence.

Because my goal isn’t simply to teach you the Reformer.

It’s to help you become the kind of teacher your clients will trust, value & keep coming back ♥️

If you’re a qualified Mat Pilates teacher who’s ready to take the next step, I’d love to welcome you.
