🌟 Embracing Radical Self-Care and Forward Progression with Pilates 🌟 As a firm believer in the transformative power of self-care, I've discovered that Pilates goes beyond mere physical fitness; it's a profound journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and radical self-care. Through mindful movement and body awareness, Pilates offers a pathway to reconnect with ourselves, cultivate inner strength, and promote overall wellness. Do you recall hearing phrases like "Stand Tall," "Sit Up Straight," and "Shoulders Back" during your upbringing, or perhaps even today? These seemingly simple reminders carry profound wisdom about the importance of posture, not just for how we appear but also for our breathing, musculoskeletal health, digestion, injury prevention, productivity, and mood. While Pilates classes can be intimidating for some, the principles behind it are adaptable by all. Imagine if we embraced these principles collectively, fostering a deeper connection with ourselves and potentially creating a more harmonious society. Audre Lorde once said that self-care is a radical act. This is a small yet impactful example of how and why. By investing in ourselves through practices like Pilates, we not only enhance our own lives but also inspire positive change in those around us. Let this serve as a reminder that how we carry ourselves matters, not just for our physical well-being but also for our mental and emotional health. Now, enjoy the video, and who knows, perhaps our paths will cross in a Pilates class one day! https://lnkd.in/e-2DR3cT #PilatesJourney #RadicalSelfCare #ForwardProgression #HolisticWellness #Empowerment #PositiveChange #SelfInvestment

Pilates, at work for work I would love to introduce Zoom Pilates sessions to more workplaces, particularly for homeworkers as well as in work places. Companies I have done this with have found this to be a great way to keep in contact and keep mobile. Having regular sessions will help to stop us sitting for too long in one place. Pilates will help with relaxation and sleep quality, will help to improve posture, and core strength and help to improve flexibility with mobility. Having Pilates classes bespoke for companies will help with team work and help employees to keep focussed. The class will take place on Zoom in the comfort of their own homes. They can get down from their desk carry out the class and get back on their chairs. Pilates involves core strengthening, relaxation and flexibility work so the need for a shower after a class is not necessary. But, will leave them relaxed and refreshed ready to get back to work. By having employees join in with my existing Pilates classes will help to keep costs down for smaller companies whilst still enabling employees to gain the same benefits. If you know anyone who would like to find out how this could benefit their employees please do get in touch. #fitandfabulous #pilatesonzoom #zoompilates #pilatesclasses

What do you do to stay fit and strong? I go walking every day. If I didn't do this, I would be pretty sedentary as I don't get many steps just being around the house. So, I aim to do 5000+ steps a day to keep my body moving and working optimally. A bonus of this is getting fresh air and seeing different sights. And mentally I find it really supportive. I am not really an exercise person, but I also have subscriptions to a dancing app and a virtual pilates membership. I know that it is important to look after my body. It sure does tell me when I am not doing this as well as I should! What do you do to keep your body fit and strong and well looked after? #selfcaretips #lookafteryourself #getmoving
