Your Pilates Studio

Highly recommend Tamsin who runs this retreat. She is not only passionate, but knowledgeable on perimenopause. If you've experienced it you'll know how unsettled and disconnected you can feel during this stage of your life. Like anything knowledge is power in helping you to navigate it.

There are still a few spaces, so book NOW!

Hats off and high five to all the incredible and inspiring women out there

I'm not just talking about the high profile and hyper visible ones. I'm talking about those of you doing such an incredible job of life on the down low. It's not always glamorous and Insta worthy but my goodness it is real and it is valuable

Hats off to you all. I recognise your strength and your resilience even when you don't shout about it 💜😘

🌟SUNDAY STRETCH🌟
-
It was gone 9pm by the time I got to my stretching this week, but I did it! And I do feel better for it too 👌
-
My Sunday stretching is always a bit random as it's never planned, I just move through stretches depending on how my body is feeling that week. So I hope you enjoy these too, and feel better afterwards 🙌👍
-
Happy Sunday Pilates People 😘

I'm back home to my studio and it's my hips which are calling to me today. So here's my Sunday stretching👍

I ran through this 3 times, the last time I held a few of the stretches that I find more uncomfortable a bit longer (1-2 minutes) to help improve the mobility in those areas👌

Happy Sunday Pilates People 🧘‍♀️😘

🌟Essential Hip Stretches🌟

Tight hips can create havoc in the body. Common issues such as lower back pain and sciatica can originate in the hips 😕 particularly if you're quite sedentary and doing desk work or driving a lot. As a runner it is even more common to get tight hips!

These are my suggestions for regular hip stretches to introduce into your routine. You don't need to do them all at once. You can do 3 one day, 2 the next. Try to hold them for 1-2 minutes each each if you can do multiple sets of them 👍

Think of your flexibility sessions like personal hygiene. One shower is is going to last you all week, let alone a month 😷😆

1. HIP FLEXORS
✅ tuck your tailbone under as shown, and keep hip bones facing forward
✅ keep tailbone tucked as you move through the arm positions

2. QUADS
✅ tuck your tailbone under as shown, and keep hip bones facing forward
✅ if you can't reach around to graba the back foot then rest it on the sofa or a stool/chair behind you

3. HAMSTRINGS
✅ LIFT your tailbone up as shown, and keep hip bones facing forward
✅ the front leg doesn't need to be straight as I've shown, you can have a small bend in it if hamstrings are very tight 👍

4. ADDUCTORS/INNER THIGHS
✅ lift your tailbone up as shown
✅ keep tailbone up as you lower to heels

5. GLUTES AND PIRIFORMIS
✅ keep your body facing down the mat
✅ keep hip bones level

Enjoy Pilates People 😘

Focused on hips, feet and upper body. All the areas I get tight as a runner 🏃‍♀️

If you're feeling like you need more just run through the stretches multiple times, or hold the particular stretches you need for longer (1-2 minutes 👌)

Enjoy Pilates People 🧘‍♀️😘
