This course offers a beautiful blend of my background of Qi Gong, Dance, Gyrotonic and Pilates! Come explore more advanced concepts and principles in the deep work of Dynamic Sliding Pilates.

Unlike the regular Pilates matwork where the movements are more linear, with a start and stop quality, Sliding Pilates uses movement in a variety of dynamic planes and with motions that loop back into themselves in coordination with the breath.

With the use of the discs and the Pilates vocabulary, Dynamic Sliding Pilates incorporates the work of the reformer and the classic matwork to create a more complete and complex workout. The discs slide on the floor guiding arm and leg movements. And at the same time the feedback from the floor also offers the opportunity to utilize deeper muscular connections by closing the kinetic chain.

Dynamic Sliding Pilates conditions the body by offering motions that increase the fluidity of the spine, while also opening the joints and stretching the musculature of the body in a supportive and strengthening manner.

Come join me in June for this great workshop that is designed for the advanced student or the Pilates instructor who is looking to inspire their Mat classes. You’ll leave with so much new material but also incredible new knowledge. I’d love to share this deep work with you! 🙇🏻‍♀️

My lovely chat with my dear friend .natasha where I discuss my morning and daily rituals and emphasize the importance of these practices not only being self care and another task to mark off in the day but also self loving tools to bring more meaning and intention to my life. I hope they can do the same for you. 🌞

Now that we’re quite deep into the kidney/water 💧season, it’s a good time to get acquainted with this point. Known as Kidney 1 or Bubbling Springs, this point calms the spirit and helps to descend the heat in the body. It’s also a great point to massage for insomnia, poor memory, nervousness and shortness of breath. The kidneys are the batteries of the body. As we get older, our kidney qi starts to deplete. This practice helps to restore the kidney energy and empty the mind and the busyness of the day. You can also use the palm of your hand to massage the point. Warming your feet before bed helps your mind to drop down in your body. 👣 Feel the Mother Earth 🌎 absorb your stress and thoughts.

It is said that by rubbing the Bubbling Springs 100 times you will live 100 years…………🧘🏻‍♀️

“You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen.“
~ Ernest Hemingway

Part 1:
Exquisite chat on a rainy day with my dear and wonderful student and friend .natasha

Carrying on where we left off on the last talk, Natasha and I discuss how to bring self-care more easily into our daily lives. And beyond that, exploring how we can bring more meaning into these practices by using tools of deeper Presence and awareness to create a sense of Ritual. Instead of wellbeing becoming another thing on our to-do list, it becomes a more fulfilling experience. An honouring of our authentic Self. Where life moves out of the ordinary and into the Sacred. 🤲🏻✨
