The older I get, the less interested I am in exercising simply for the sake of exercising.
I want to be strong enough to keep doing the things I love.
To travel. Walk for miles. Run. Lift things. Play sport. Get up off the floor easily. And hopefully still be doing all of those things many years from now.
That’s one of the reasons strength has become such an important part of how I think about movement — both for myself and in the studio.
And strength doesn’t have to look one particular way.
It might be weights.
The Reformer.
The Chair.
Springs.
Body weight.
Balance work.
Pilates gives us so many ways to challenge the body while also working on mobility, control and how we move.
For me, that’s the bigger picture.
Not being good at Pilates.
Building a body that’s strong enough for life.
Move well. Stay strong. Keep doing the things you love.

Golfers — how well does your body move off the course? ⛳️

A golf swing asks a lot from the body.

Hip mobility.
Spinal rotation.
Balance.
Lower-body strength.
Core control.

And while stretching can certainly help when you feel stiff, mobility alone isn't the whole picture. Your body also needs the strength and control to use the movement you have.

That's where Pilates can be such a useful addition to your game.

Using the Reformer, Tower, Stability Chair, Ladder Barrel and other movement tools, we can work on the body behind the swing — without trying to teach or change your golf technique.

Because I'm not interested in coaching your swing.

I'm interested in helping your body move well enough to make it.

I've written more about Pilates for golfers — and how I use the different equipment in the studio — over on the blog.

A fresh space, and a fresh start 🤍

The studio is back open, and it feels so good to be teaching in here again.

Pilates is at the heart of what I do, but The Mind Body Union has always been about more than one piece of equipment — or even one way of moving.

Reformer. Tower. Chair. Ladder Barrel. Mat. Small props. Strength. Mobility. Balance. Recovery.

Different bodies need different things on different days.

Sometimes we need to build strength. Sometimes we need more mobility. Sometimes we need to slow things down, reconnect and simply move better.

That's what I love about having so many tools available in the studio — we can make the movement fit the person, rather than trying to make the person fit the workout.

The goal is pretty simple:

Move well. Stay strong. Keep doing the things you love.

Welcome back to The Mind Body Union 🤍

Something new at The Mind Body Union ✨
Introducing Pop-Up Sessions — occasional small-group sessions where we can explore a little more, try something different, and focus on the things that help us move and feel better.
Coming this September:
✨ CORE — But Not As You Know It
Forget endless crunches. We’re looking at what your core really is, how it works, and how to use it better in everyday movement.
✨ TEEN STRETCH + RESET
A feel-good session for active teens to stretch, move, release tightness and reset.
Starting off small, so spots are limited. Relaxed studio. All levels welcome.
Interested? Send me a DM and I’ll send you the details 🤍

And we’re back 🤍
After a few weeks of pulling things apart, putting them back together and giving the studio a much-needed refresh, The Mind Body Union is open again.
It feels so good to be back in this space — and I’m excited about what’s ahead.
Alongside private + duet Pilates, I’ll be introducing some new Pop-Up Sessions focused on movement, mobility, strength and helping our bodies keep doing the things we love.
Whether you’ve been coming to me for years, haven’t been in for a while, or have been thinking about trying Pilates for the first time, you’re always welcome here.
Here’s to moving well, feeling strong and a fresh start ✨

I thought it was about time to properly introduce myself.
I’m the heart behind The Mind Body Union, and I’m passionate about creating a space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, move your body, and take care of your overall well-being.
My goal is simple: to help you feel stronger, more balanced, and more connected — both in your body and your mind. 🤍
Whether you’re just beginning your wellness journey or have been on it for years, I’m so happy you’re here.
I’d love to get to know you too! Tell me in the comments: what’s one thing you’re doing for yourself this week? ✨

A LITTLE WORK IN PROGRESS 🤍
The Mind Body Union is getting a little refresh.
The studio is currently under construction, which means there’s a lot of dust, moving things around, and a few “what have I done?” moments happening over here. 😂
But it’s all part of getting the space ready for a fresh new chapter.
Can’t wait to welcome you back.
