💚 MONDAY CHALLENGE! 💚

This week, we’re testing your strength! 💪🏼

🪑 How many sit-to-stands can you do in 30 seconds?

Find a sturdy chair, sit down & stand back up — without using your hands if you can!

Your challenge:
✨ 5–10 reps
✨ 10–15 reps
✨ 15+ reps

Keep your movements controlled & focus on good technique rather than speed.

👇🏼 Comment below with your score!

And remember — quality over quantity! 😉

🤔Why does strength matter?

Strength is an important part of Pilates & everyday movement. It helps us stay strong, stable & confident while doing the things we love — from getting out of a chair to climbing stairs, gardening, travelling & keeping up with the grandkids. 💚

Building strength isn't about lifting the heaviest weights or having the biggest muscles.
It's about having a body that's strong enough for your life.💪🏽

So… how many can you do? 👀

💚 Small Pilates challenges. Big everyday benefits.

Your Monday Challenge starts now!

💚 MONDAY CHALLENGE! 💚

Give it a go today & see how long you can hold it:

✨ 5 seconds
✨ 10 seconds
✨ 30+ seconds

Then switch legs! 👣

👇🏼 Comment below with your time!

No cheating! 😉 And remember — keep something nearby to hold onto if you need it.

Why does balance matter?

🦩Balance is an important part of Pilates & everyday movement. It helps us feel more stable, confident & capable as we move through life.

As we get older, maintaining our balance, strength & stability becomes even more important — helping us keep doing the things we love with confidence. 💚

So… how long can you hold it? 👀

💚 Small Pilates challenges. Big everyday benefits.

🌿 BREATHE & ENJOY! 💚

Sometimes we get so caught up in doing Pilates right that we forget to simply ENJOY moving our bodies & being grateful for what they can do.

So before you begin…

🌬️ Take a deep breath.
🧘‍♀️ Let your shoulders soften.
💚 Let go of perfection.
✨ Focus on how the movement feels.

Pilates isn’t about getting every movement perfect, every time.

Precision matters. Moving safely matters. But perfection? That’s not attainable. 😉

So instead, let’s focus on connection, breathing & enjoyment.💚

💫Connect with your body.
🌿Move with intention.
🌬️Breathe with your movement.
💞& most importantly — enjoy it!

✨ Join us for Pilates online or in Pukekohe.

Breathe. Move. Connect. Enjoy.

🌿 #5 - BEFORE PILATES: ACCEPT where you are at & LET GO of expectations

✨You don’t have to be stronger, more flexible or more energetic than you are today.

Today’s body is the body you’re bringing to Pilates. 💚

Maybe you’re feeling amazing.
Maybe you’re tired.
Maybe you’re stiff.
Maybe you just need some time for yourself.

Whatever you’re bringing with you today — accept it.

Take a deep breath. 🌬️
Let go of expectations.
Move with your body, not against it.

And most importantly…

Breathe & enjoy! 🧘‍♀️💚

🧘‍♀️ # 4 - BEFORE PILATES: PAUSE & CHECK IN with your body

Before you start moving, take a moment to notice how your body is feeling today.

Ask yourself:
💭 Where am I feeling tight?
💭 What feels good?
💭 Am I tired, energised or somewhere in between?
💭 Is there anything I need to be mindful of today?

Your body can feel different from one day to the next — & that’s completely normal.

Listen. Notice. Then let your movement meet you where you are. 💚

📱 #3 - BEFORE PILATES: SWITCH OFF

How often do you actually give yourself time without notifications, messages & distractions?

Before Pilates, put your phone on Do Not Disturb or silent, & give yourself permission to switch off. ✨

For the next 30–60 minutes, this time is for YOU.

Less scrolling.
Less rushing.
More breathing.
More movement. 💚

Create your space, take a breath & leave the outside world behind for a little while.

✨ Join us for Pilates online or in Pukekohe.

👚 #2 - BEFORE PILATES: DRESS TO MOVE

What you wear can make a difference to how you feel during your Pilates session.

Choose clothing that is comfy, flexible & allows you to move freely.

You’ll be bending, stretching, twisting & flowing — so you want to feel comfortable in every movement. 🧘‍♀️

You don’t need fancy workout gear. Just something that lets your body move without restriction. 💚

#1💧 BEFORE PILATES: HYDRATE

Before you roll out your mat, grab yourself a glass of water. 💦

Did you know your fascia is influenced by hydration too? 💧

Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds & supports your muscles, bones, joints & organs. When it’s well hydrated, it can glide & move more freely, helping your body move smoothly.

When you’re dehydrated, you can become less pliable & movement may feel stiffer. Not exactly how we want to start our Pilates session! 😉

So, your first Pilates prep?

Fill up your water bottle & bring it with you! 💚

💞 A little hydration can help your body feel more ready to move, stretch & flow.
