I don’t need your miracle powder.
I’ve got enough jars of regret in the pantry.

Some days it feels like the world is obsessed with things I don’t give a sh*t about.

Pop stars. Influencers. Whatever 20-somethings are shouting about online.

Meanwhile, I’m over here just trying to:
– Remember why I walked into the kitchen
– Survive another night of hot flashes without stripping the sheets at 3am
– Keep my knees from sounding like bubble wrap every time I squat
– And maybe — just maybe — get through one day without Googling “is this normal in midlife?”

Honestly? That feels way more interesting.

✨ Our next 6-week yoga module starts in just a FEW DAYS — 1st September.
Beginners: Mon + Wed.
Dynamic flow: Tues + Thurs.

No filters. No fads. Just real women, showing up — tired, wobbly, strong, hilarious, and very much alive.

Should we tuck our tailbone in chair pose?

Orrr should we *untuck* our tailbone in chair pose?

If you’re confused about this, I understand! *Both* of these opposing cues are common in the yoga world – especially for the purpose of “protecting the spine”.

So… which cue is the right cue? Should we tuck or untuck? 🤔

As it turns out, despite yoga teachers' well-meaning concerns about the safety of the spine in chair pose, when it comes to biomechanics and load, the spine is not actually exposed to a significant risk of injury in this pose.

The spine is a strong, robust structure that isn’t inherently vulnerable to injury in chair pose because chair pose is a low-load, safe, bodyweight movement.

In fact, even in contexts that do involve heavy loads on the spine like weightlifting squats 🏋️, as long as the loads are progressed gradually over time, injury risk to the spine isn’t a significant concern.

So... should we tuck or untuck our tailbone in chair pose?

Thankfully, we don't actually need to worry about this at all!

Our spine isn't at risk in chair pose in the first place, and tucking or untucking our tailbone won't make a difference in this regard.

In general, unless we have a specific goal (other than injury prevention) for instructing tucking or untucking in the moment, we can simply let our students' bodies self-organize in chair pose.

We don't need to interfere with or *micromanage* the slight tilts of their pelvis in an anterior or posterior direction.

Midlife isn’t a crisis.
It’s my comeback. 🌼

I’ve started so many things “late”:
– Yoga, at 29
– Teaching, at 46
– Strength training, at 54

Every time, I thought I’d missed my window.
Every time, I was wrong.

Timelines are a myth. Glow-ups come in many forms.

✨ Our next 6-week yoga module starts 1st September.
If you’ve been waiting for the “right time”… this might be it.

Head to my website to save your spot — we’d love to have you.
