So:
When you stand on a single leg, think of the chain reaction: ankle - knee - hip.
And how evenly you place your foot on the ground.
Balance keeps your walk gait steady and gorgeous.
Happy balance and happy Thursday to all!

Move big.
Use the space.
Reach long and far.
Good range of motion is huge in the aging process.
Go for it. Trust me.

And add to it lots of self-compassion.
Now you’re good to go✨💫✨
Happy Thursday, my friends!

A terrific way to balance the support to the lower back. When extending one hip at a time in a bridge pose, I give each side the chance to get stronger on its own. Equanimity in lumbar support is my fancy way of describing this glute work.

We will be doing different variations of this work at the virtual studio this week💃💃💃

Any questions, let me know.
Happy Tuesday to all!

At the end of the day, after all the info read and hearing the experts and doctors, YOU are the one who knows what’s best for your body.

Why? Because only you can feel:
•When it needs to rest
•When it needs to move
•What nourishes it best
•What tastes good in your mouth
•When it doesn’t feel well

Just be present for it. With love and respect.

So what are you waiting for?
Keep it simple, make it FUN!

I heard those words very recently from a wonderful yoga instructor.
And that got me thinking.

When I teach Pilates or Barre, the breath is integrated to the workouts 100%. I cue it constantly.

So, when exercising:
💃Breathe for what you need:
The oxygenation of the blood and cels - an essential piece.
💃Breathe for what you want:
For focus and energy to move in a strong, smooth flow.

There.

Have a wonderful Wednesday, full of positive energy. Breathe into it!✨

Non stop to do lists on steroids is the mood now during the Holidays…anybody agree?
Here are your Three for today!

💃STRETCH: Best thing for the body during a season of hustle & bustle. The “busy” tension contracts & tightens the muscles. Stretching the whole body creates length and space to relax. Any kind that soothes you is a go.

🫖NOURISH WITH TEA: I love drinking teas that are not only delicious to my palate but also nourishing and healing to my body. It is a soothing ritual to me. Two of my favorites these days: the recently discovered red tea in the pic, choc full of berries (thank you, Donna!), and my homemade ginger mint infusion. What’s your favorite???

📚ASK & LEARN: I used to self-doubt myself a lot and not ask. Well, without a question there are no answers, right? And learning is growth! So ask away. The full moon is in Gemini, a sign that invites a curious mind, so let’s ride this wave!

Both sides of the spine. Think lateral balance. A perfect theme to embody this full moon of the twins in Gemini.
Lateral core work means supporting the spine on both sides.

How do you do it?
💃Lateral flexion for spine pliability through abdominal work
💃Stability and support of the spine through any side planking mode

As the Gemini sign embraces the human body and soul, lateral work encompasses both sides of the spine to minimize any differences for better balance within the torso.

Wishing you all a Happy full moon and great Wednesday ahead!🌝♊️🌝♊️

Please do me a favor:
On the day after a Holiday filled with fun food and connection, DON’T exercise to:

😩Burn calories
😩Detox
😩Get you back to a “safe place”

Now read above my pic again. That is what exercise can truly do for you.
Wishing a FUN Friday to all!
💃💃💃💃💃💃

Some simple, sweet ideas for today and the coming weekend🧡🍁🧡

💃ROLL HOLDING HEELS: Continuing the theme of deeper core in honor of the Scorpio season, this is an advanced version of a Pilates classic move. Not for everybody, since it involves deep spine flexion. Engaging abs deeper is key for the balance on sit bones. Try it. Be playful😃

🌱BOK CHOY: This Chinese cabbage is full of fiber, vitamins A & C, minerals. AND as a dark leaf veggie, packed with antioxidants (think cancer prevention). I like to eat it as in the pic, in a ramen noodle soup 🍜 Great way to diversify our diets.

😎CHILL DAY: I caught myself last Saturday scheduling my time off. As when to meditate, have breakfast, walk the dog…had to halt my mind and say NO. Then I was truly able to chill and rest. From all of it! A real rest day is not only a break for the body, but for the mind too!

It’s that simple.

Yet it takes practice to incorporate this deep ab connection when working them.

Always initiate any spine flexion move with that deep tuck in place. Game changer.

And your spine will thank you, again and again!
