Join me live as I take you through an actual full length, full body Pilates reformer class in real time online.

But of course all of these exercises can be used for any of your clients, even if their shoulders are healthy already.

I've got some good news and I've got some bad news.

The good news: The very last room is still available for my upcoming Costa Rica Wellness and Adventure Retreat in December. 🎉

The bad news: Today is the deadline to reserve it. 🚨

There has been a ton of interest in this retreat, and it is 99% sold out. But I know there are a few of you still on the fence about booking.

If you need a reset, a recharge, some time away just for yourself so you can come back a more uplifted version of you, then you don't want to skip this retreat.

DATES: November 30 - December 6
LOCATION: Nalu Nosara in Nosara, Costa Rica

My Wellness and Adventure retreats are all about mixing fun and excitement with relaxation and introspection. They are open to everyone, regardless of movement experience.

In Costa Rica, we do this with daily Pilates and yoga classes, a group surf lesson, sound bath, sunsets at the beach, a coastal tree planting experience, group reformer class, group dinners, healthy meals, and beautiful walks through the jungle.

I leave plenty of free time for you to lean into more wellness or more adventure to truly make this retreat your own.

Optional activities include surfing, horseback riding at the beach, mountain biking, a zip line tour through the jungle, visiting the monkey sanctuary, waterfall repelling, booking a spa treatment at a local spa, relaxing at the beach sipping on a coconut, trying out the local restaurants and coffee shops, shopping, or relaxing back at your air-conditioned villa, maybe lounging at your villa's private saltwater plunge pool. 😍

This is one of my absolute favorite retreats I organize each year and I would love to share it with YOU!

Sign up ASAP at the link in my bio before the deadline ends (and before someone else takes your spot!).

I can't wait to show you around Nosara, Costa Rica!

Thank you Carolyn Estelle | Pilates & Wellness Studio 🌱 for sharing this sweet testimonial about last weekend's continuing ed course: Pilates for Injuries & Pathologies: Chronic Pain & Neurological Conditions at BASI Pilates HQ.

I love that Carolyn mentions she can use what she learned in this course with ALL of her Pilates clients.

That's something I really want to emphasize: YES you gain the knowledge and tools to work with Pilates clients who have special considerations like chronic pain or neurological conditions, BUT you can use any of this repertoire with ALL of your clients!

This was the only I&P Chronic Pain & Neurological Conditions course taught in the U.S. this year, so keep an eye out for the 2027 schedule when it becomes available and don't miss out! 🙏❤️

Oh man, what a GREAT weekend!!
The very first time teaching "Pilates for Injuries & Pathologies: Chronic Pain & Neurological Conditions" for BASI Pilates in the U.S.! 🇺🇸

It was a solid, sold out 2 days and I am SO proud of this fantastic group of students! It was also great seeing so many familiar faces from previous courses and online. 😊

Thank you BASI Pilates Newport Beach for hosting! ❤️
