Movement, thoughts and feelings and tea! These are some of my favourite things!
After many years of teaching people with osteoporosis, I was diagnosed with osteo myself. After a challenging fwe weeks getting used to my diagnosis, I fully committed to creating classes, workshops and programs that serve my community.
I bring you not only my years of therapeutic movement work, but also my lived experience!
Do you need to have osteoporosis or osteopenia to enjoy my work? Nope, my stuff works for everyone! But it's a safe place for you to move and move well.
**Please note that Pelvic Floor Fundamentals was both made before my diagnosis and may have moves that aren't appropriate for all bodies**
I've been teaching Pilates and movement for over 20 years. Realising that I wanted to hone my eye for detail, I built my skills and understanding of biomechanics and functional alignment when I certified as a Restorative Exercise Specialist with Katy Bowman and the Nutritious Movement Institute.
I'm fascinated by how bodies work and have taken part in two fascial dissections with Tom Myers of Anatomy Trains. That amazing experience has added nuance and detail to my understanding of how truly it's all connected! Also it makes for excellent cocktail party conversation.
My approach to movement and health includes exercise-specific movement, natural everyday movement, somatic body and brain exploration and a deep conviction that how our brains and bodies get together makes all the difference to how we feel. Combining functional, exploratory details and alignment with fluid, intuitive movement and an emphasis on acceptance and fun leads to sustainable change that helps you feel better for life!
