Refining my Pilates practice with friends, thank you šŸ’•

Tips on lateral flexion welcome! I tend to lean forward and crunch.

Happy Sunday ā˜€ļø

Are you finding that stretching isn’t helping your pelvic or hip pain?

Check your pelvic floor first - I encourage this if you are a mum who hasn’t had one before and are experiencing pain or discomfort, or if you’re going through peri-menopause and / or menopause with similar issues.

Remember, pelvic floor dysfunction can present with symptoms like incontinence, not fully emptying, painful in*******se, groin, pelvic or inner thigh pain.

Once you know where you stand (and even before to be honest) - Alignment is important to make sure your muscles are working from the right baseline. Then you need to work to strengthen weak muscle groups - train them both concentrically and eccentrically. This is where Pilates comes in.

If you have questions - comment below or DM me.

Get to know your body. It’s beautiful.

We were learning how to gym today! Our first question was ā€˜where are the mats’ - you can take the girl out of the Pilates studio… 🤭

We had such a fun day! Thank you for a great intro session and taking us through almost all the equipment . I’ll have to do a review of the equipment - my favourite was what I’m calling the ā€˜thigh master’ - adduction and abduction work is exactly what I need.

The day was made even better by lunch at my fav (no pics but highly recommend the smashed artichoke sandwich) and Pilates with the girls! Thank you for joining us and for teaching me

Thank you for today - beautiful to catch up and have a day of movement together.

Now to do the admin that I haven’t attended to all day…or maybe tomorrow 🤭

I was feeling so run down yesterday and had initially cancelled my Pilates class. I ended up making it, albeit late, and it was the one thing that set me up for a better day. Movement really is healing ā¤ļøā€šŸ©¹ , I ended up having a good but tired day and was grateful for new clients / friends.

How do you help yourself to feel better on low days?

I am creating a community where we can train together and support one another.

DM me if you’d like to be a part of it šŸ’š

Friends like this 🄰 - taking me through the ā€˜Hanging Back’ Pilates exercise.

Hello back work!

11/08/2026

Here’s how my body composition has changed over the last six months, quietly but effectively - and no, I was not on a diet.

šŸ„›I have been eating better, more protein as much as I can but balancing it with still enjoying what I like - after all, life is for the living.

🫁 My nervous system is better regulated, better breathing has been huge for my diastasis.

šŸ§˜šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļø Doing Pilates of course! Not as much as I would like to, and I hope to do more self practice in the coming months - but enough to make a difference.

ā° Probably the biggest impact - time and healing. Not everyone recovers and heals at the same pace or even in the same way. I have found that when I haven’t been looking - things have been quietly shifting.

If like us at Viva Core, you love yourself and are on a journey of self-discovery and body awareness - use the link in my bio to book your Pilates class with me today.

Hands on correction is soo underrated. It’s one thing to know what you should be doing and another to understand where your body is in space and any compensations you might be making.

In the first few seconds I’m leaning heavily into one side, my body is too upright and I couldn’t stabilise long enough to perform the exercise. gave me sound tactile feedback and pointed out where I should put pressure with my foot - not a magic cure but it made such a difference! I can build on from this to strengthen the muscle weakness in the right way.

Book your private class with me - back in the studio from 11 August.
