Form and Function

Form and Function Level 4 Back Pain Instructor. Experienced bodyworker: Bowen, Remedial Massage. Clinical Hypnotherapy

Pilates: All classes are suitable for most abilities; beginners are welcome. Expert supervision is provided and encouragement to progress. Originally trained through Body Control I teach classical Pilates with an emphasis on function and movement. I have an interest in fascial release to ease pain and promote mobility and function and a personal interest in chronic fatigue and related conditions. Therapies: Every single treatment, whether you are new or a long-standing regular, will be tailored to you specifically to meet your needs on that day and in line with any treatment goals set. Details of therapies on here are brief because no two treatments will ever be the same.

This bench was in the Castle Gardens in Leicester. What a great idea. Let's remember to check in with people close to us, especially this time of year, and to reach out to friends ourselves if we need to.

It's quiz week at class this week! We work hard but i'm not against a bit of fun. Its been nice to see over the years that many of the classes have bonded, a couple of them are like mini families. I try to encourage a relaxed environment, even if i do have a reputation for being a bit of a taskmaster!

We went to watch this heartbreaking and heartwarming film last night about John Davidson, who pioneered the change in awareness of Tourettes Syndrome. I've learned a lot more about Tourettes lately from a friend and now from this. It is a syndrome, but it's also a set of very real mental health problems for so many with the mind and body essentially being turned into a pressure cooker. More awareness and understanding is needed from all of us about all mental health issues, so I'd urge you all to go and watch I Swear.

This is not a Pilates pose. It could be... (the guy behind has dreadful posture. He defo need Pilates, or Bowen for his back problems). Anyway, I am lifting my breastbone, and that is an easy way to start adjusting your posture to something more functional and less slumpy. Be more dandy (and less slumpy). Join me for Pilates. I'm a back pain specialist instructor, in case that's not evident from the pic.

Currently, I have space 645pm Monday at King's Forest primary school in Kingswood. New block commencing, so more space may come up soon in other classes...

It's National Back Pain Awareness week. Obviously, I'm going to advocate Pilates, Remedial massage and Bowen Therapy to help, but here are a few tips. MOVE! Don't rest for back pain, it's a ludicrous reaction. Don't think exercise is all about gym and sweating. Just walk, swim, use stairs, any movement is technically exercise. Do something you enjoy. We are not built to be static. Work on strength, like Pilates and appropriate loading with weights. Rather than try to get a straight back in your posture when sitting/standing just lift your breastbone. Done.

We went to this exhibition yesterday at the Victoria Art Gallery in Bath. It's beautifully illustrated poetry, and I've used their first book at a previous retreat. Now this one will be making an appearance next Saturday at the autumn Rejuvenation Retreat with one of the poems as a meditation.
