The other day Mike and I were chatting about motivation. It came off the back of my recent thoughts about just showing up – and he offered a slightly different perspective that really stuck with me. What if it’s not about motivation at all? What if it’s about routine? Because motivation is unreliable. It rises […]
Your body is not a collection of isolated parts. It’s a conversation – and every joint, muscle, and breath plays a role in that dialogue. Over the past year, I’ve created a series of workshops that zoom in on specific regions of the body – the back, hips, shoulders – but it all began with […]
There’s a lot of conversation around Zone 2 training at the moment, and it’s natural to wonder how this fits alongside Pilates. Zone 2 training refers to low-to-moderate intensity cardiovascular exercise where you can still hold a conversation, but your heart rate is elevated. Think brisk walking, steady cycling, or swimming at a comfortable pace. […]
There are days when motivation is nowhere to be found. You know the days I mean. You’re tired. Your head is busy. Your body feels heavy. The idea of doing the thing – moving, working, showing up – feels like too much. And on those days, it’s tempting to think: ‘If I can’t do it […]
Let’s be honest – social media can be a lot. One minute you’re looking for a nice dinner idea, the next you’re being told you should be training harder, eating differently, ageing better, fixing your posture, healing your hormones, and apparently doing it all before 6am with glowing skin and a green smoothie. It’s exhausting. […]
When we think about hip health, most people jump straight to stretches, tight muscles, or getting older. Very few think about their shoes – yet what’s on your feet has a direct influence on how your hips move, load and feel every single day. Every step you take sends force up through the feet, into […]
January gets a pretty tough reputation. It’s short on daylight, long on pressure, and often carries a sense that we must overhaul our entire lives simply because the calendar rolled over. Many people arrive at this point in the month feeling flat, tired, or like they’ve somehow failed at a fresh start. But here’s the […]
I want to share something a bit personal with you all – not as a transformation story, not as a lesson, but simply as a real conversation about what’s been happening in my own body over the past few months. Nothing dramatic. Nothing restrictive. Nothing shiny or curated. Just me, living, learning and noticing. Let’s […]
The truth behind one of fitness’s most persistent myths One of the most common concerns I hear from women is this: ‘I don’t want to lift weights because I don’t want to get bulky. It’s an understandable fear – but it’s also one of the biggest myths in the fitness world. The truth is, most […]
You may have noticed I’ve been adding more flowing, rhythmic and gently energised movements into our sessions. These are designed to support your lymphatic system – the part of your body that helps clear waste, balance fluid levels and keep your immune system functioning well. The lymphatic system doesn’t have its own pump, so it […]
