Your shoulders & upper back are designed to MOVE, and not spend all day being held in one position.

💥6 moves for your shoulders & upper/ mid back muscles, which you need.
Strong, mobile and moving the way they’re meant to.

💥 I’ve been doing this routine regularly over the last few weeks while on a road trip 🚗 with lots of sitting, driving and time in the same position!

💦 Open your thoracic spine. Think tall and ribs in.

💦 Chest press- Open chest and shoulders, maintain trunk stability.

💦 Spine Rotation- Improve thoracic rotation.

💦 Arms long and elbows meet middle of back, retraction, squeezing in. Showing move front on and behind the back.

💦 Scarecrow- internal/ external rotation. Improve mobility and rotator cuff. Maintain elbow shoulder height.

💙SAVE & SHARE this for your week ahead. If you do lots of standing or sitting, find just 10min on a break + move.

➡️ Hit your Mat with some core strength igniting your centre. Don’t have to do a whole mat class, to connect with your mid section, front to back and do your spine a favour. Trust me.

Loopband helps you find more within your body and it will connect you where you need it most!! Some days, this is all I might do and boy am I better for it after.

🌐Let’s go, find your loopband & join me!

🌐You can take a loopband anywhere & everywhere. Very versatile.

🌐SAVE & SHARE and love to hear your comments on this series, made especially for you!

💠Prep for reverse abs (shorten the lever). Fire up that belly 🔥 X10
💠Rollup w band around wrists/ pressing into having opposition & finding length). X3-5
💠Rollover (press out into band under the arches of feet). X3-5
💠Criss Cross (Squeezing the juice out of it, as one of my mentors would say. Exhale, exhale and exhale). X6-8
💠Hands in Straps/ Ref. working the obliques, finding more lift). X8-10
💠Abduct/ Adduct (loop under arches, w heels staying in alignment w hips). Press out x2 and legs back in x1 count. Do 8-10.
💠Stretch Psoas using Loop or theraband. Pull on band behind you, if you can go there with your shoulders, to bring heel to glutes without compromising torso alignment. This is dessert!!! Voila!!

-Been a few years between making a chicken/ seafood paella, so well overdue.

Practice time after my teaching day –

BOOMERANG is commonly considered one of the most advanced exercises in the mat work, as it requires tremendous concentration, coordination, and control. Do you see the Teaser?🔥

TIP- focus to maintain a fluid & controlled movement throughout the exercise.

If this looks like your thing – join our Pilates community OR our Thursday 9:30am mat group class. See you on the mat Pilates lovers!!

March is finally here and we’re starting to feel that little hint of autumn in Oz. 🍂 This month feels like a reset. With so much happening in the world, it’s a reminder to pause, breathe, feel… and move our bodies.
It’s okay to feel deeply — I know I do.
Take a moment to remind the women in your life how much they matter. Be the difference and share the love. It’s powerful.

My beautiful mum (in this pic) will forever be my queen and my warrior woman. 👑

Women — we see you. 💛
I celebrate International Women’s Day every day… you hear me.

(Yes, posting this a little early — because I know some people might need to hear this today.)

A spontaneous, last-minute trip for business took us up north — and we turned it into a little adventure. We made the most of it with a trip to Moreton Island, paddle boarding alongside dolphins, stingrays, and turtles. There are honestly no words to describe how that felt. Spent my partners birthday with close friends, very special indeed (Aquarius baby).

We also spent time hiking through Noosa National Park, soaking in everything nature had to offer. And for my overseas friends — the kookaburra photo is especially for you.
I’ve always been a water baby and feel completely at ease by the ocean. No surprise really — in a past life, I coached deep water running. There’s something about the outdoors and just breathing.

Now feeling grounded, grateful, and very ready to see my tribe tomorrow.
Life is now. No regrets — just living fully. So thankful for all that this country offers, especially the incredible coastline we’re lucky enough to explore. 💫alwaystravelling
