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.

Frustrated by those awkward to buy for people? I have the answer! A gift voucher for Form and Function. Let's face it, who doesn't have the odd ni**le ache and pain these days? Your gift to them can be a bit of freedom from that annoyance! Perfect 👌. They can book a one to one Pilates session, a remedial massage, a Bowen treatment, or for stress relief a session of hypnotherapy or a wellbeing hour. Seriously, what's not to love about a gift like that? Problem solved. You're welcome.

GET OUT! Studies have shown that being out in nature, especially woodlands but any green spaces will do, for 20 mins have a positive effect on your mental and physical health. Inhaling the air in these places changes the chemicals in the brain causing us to feel relaxed. Also the greenscape and certain colours of plants and flowers 💐 effect us positively. You can also recreate this in a small way by having flowers in your home, specifically pink and white, but whatever floats your boat really. I usually have flowers in my lounge and a spray of flowers in the bedroom. And they do indeed make me happy. So, off you pop for a stroll and to treat yourself to some flowers. Bloomin' lovely.

Through the year we have quizzes at Pilates. It often descends into chaos. Every Xmas I ask for the name of the reindeer. It's rare someone gets them all, so a lady in class last night bought a revision sheet ahead of next week's quiz. Someone wants a chocolate Lindt bear badly.

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...
