I’ve opened up my schedule to accommodate more online clients! The great thing about the program I’ve created is that you complete the work on your own schedule, and you still get the benefit of 1:1 consultation. Appointments with me are every 2 weeks to keep you on track and moving forward. I just got off a call today with a client who has a goal of returning to running...which means my project for this week is uploading videos and information on returning to running postpa...rtum. My favourite thing is when my clients let me know what they need, and then I create it. If you’re interested in more info let me know! #postpartumrunning #yycrehab #yycmoms #transformingrehabilitation #physicaltherapy #pilates #pelvicfloor

I'm creating a home workout for all of my class clients, that uses props at home to mimic what we would do on the Reformer. I'll be posting to Instagram, and then copying here for those of you that prefer Facebook. Send me a message if you'd like a pdf with all of the exercises listed. And of course, we can talk about customizing it to you as needed. This is the warm-up!

For those of you that missed my last reel on IG: here’s the first step in setting up your home Reformer space. You can use a doorway or a railing to attach your straps. Heavier bands are better to begin = more support. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CNQKSdPhr2r/

Classes at the studio were all geared up to start again last week. I know many of you were eager to get back, however we’ll have to wait a bit longer Purchasing a Reformer for home would be ideal, but out of reach for most. As well, how do you use it?? Over the next few weeks, I’ll be posting videos that show you how to recreate the Reformer from home using inexpensive items like bands and balls.... If you’ve attended my rehabilitation Explore Pilates & Movement classes you’ll recognize some of your favourites. If you haven’t attended class or worked with me personally, you’ll get a taste of what I teach #transformingrehabilitation #physicalhealth #selfcare #core #pelvicfloor #pilates #reformer #clinicalpilates #yycmoms #yycmomblog #yyc #yycrehab #yycwellness #movementtherapy #findthegood #howdoyoufindthegood #simplicity #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy

Rehab exercises can be boring. This makes it really hard to stick to them. What if they weren’t so boring? What if you kind of, sort of looked forward to them? Pilates makes it way more fun. Exercises can be simple, effective and NOT BORING. It’s actually possible.... I’m working on some more Pilates based videos to show you what I mean. Stay tuned. #transformingrehabilitation #pilates #clinicalpilates #yycrehab #movementtherapy #simplicity #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy

2020. Found some solitude to close this one out.

Blessings to you and your family today.

Hygge. This word is all I want to do to finish out 2020. That’s it. I’m all in. a quality of cosiness and comfortable conviviality that engenders a feeling of contentment or well-being (regarded as a defining characteristic of Danish culture): -Oxford dictionary... #hygge #simplicity #doless

Group classes are cancelled for the remainder of 2020 due to new restrictions in Alberta. Spent the extra time today shooting videos for my new online program for healing diastasis recti. Shout out to @hollygstudios for all of your help and advice for all things video!

I’m under a lot of stress. I’m also working out a lot to try to improve my core but it isn’t getting any better. What do I do? My answer? Do less. Stress can cause excess tension and compensation patterns in the body. Intense workouts layered on top of this pattern can push us further into compensation. What does that mean? Basically your body is in fight or flight mode. See if you can find ways to bring your body into less tension and more relaxation first. Not sure how t...o do that? DM me. I’m putting together resources for the group of women in my online beta group. New program launching in January to help women with abdominal separation! #yourresilientcore #stress #diastasisrecti #transformingrehabilitation #physicalhealth #postpartum #selfcare #core #pelvicfloor #doless #mothers #motherhood #pilates #yycmoms #yycmomblog #movementtherapy #physicaltherapy #simplicity
