Anyone up for a YouTube workout? Head to my channel and join me for a focused lower-body session as we fire up the glute medius to build hip stability, strength, and control. We’ll finish with intentional bridging to fully activate and strengthen the glute max, leaving you feeling strong, supported, and balanced. This quick but effective class is perfect for improving stability, enhancing performance, and giving your glutes the attention they deserve. 💪✨

Chair planking… and wow 🔥
I saw a fellow Pilates teacher doing this and had to give it a try. Let me tell you — it’s so much harder than it looks!

As you can see, my pedal wants to pop me up a little too quickly, which tells me two things: my core needs to work even harder… and I probably need to lighten my springs 😅 (That’s Pilates — always learning!)

The Pilates Chair is such an incredible piece of equipment. It builds serious strength, stability, and control in a way that challenges every level. I love incorporating it into sessions with my clients because it meets you where you are — and then helps you grow.

Curious to try it for yourself? Let’s get you on the chair. 💪✨

When I’m not teaching clients, I’m working on my own Pilates practice. Not every session is pretty. Not every movement feels strong or effortless. Some days it’s messy, challenging, and humbling—but that’s where the growth happens. I show up to build strength, improve mobility, and stay connected to my body, even when it’s hard. Practicing what I teach reminds me why I love this work and why I believe so deeply in the process. Progress over perfection, always. 💙✨

This is the work behind the work, and it’s always worth it.

P.S. I know this looks easy, I promise you it was not! I sat up against the wall to help keep my spine lengthened because it wanted to slouch and round, to make room in the hips rather than me "finding" my range and mobility. Using the seat of the chair was very difficult vs. using the pedal.

This move helps to improve my form for teasers and roll ups! You can do this at home, with a wall and a chair!

Springboard fun today! 🎉
Load into that front heel and drive through the glute for strength and control. I love keeping it to 6–8 reps, then layering in some fun arm combos to turn it into a total-body burn. Strong legs, active arms, and lots of feel-good movement. 💪✨

This plank has everything working. 💥
Set up on the reformer with 1 light/yellow spring (or medium/blue for added support). Squeeze a Pilates ball between the inner thighs to engage the adductors. Hover the knees to fully activate the core and support the spine, keeping the back long and lifted. Strength, stability, and control from head to toe. 🙌

I saw someone do this on the reformer… so of course I had to try! 😄
Tricep dips using the short box and 1 blue/medium spring = serious control, strength, and stability.

💪 This move fires up the arms, shoulders, and core while challenging balance and focus. Slow, controlled, and intentional—because good form makes all the difference. 🔥✨

Seated Mermaid on the Pilates Chair 🧜‍♀️✨
This one is all about control, length, and intentional movement. Keep your hips facing forward and stay grounded through your lengthened leg—let it stay connected to the floor. As you move, think lift first, then side bend and reach, creating space through the spine before going into the stretch. Strong, supported, and fluid—just the way mermaid should feel. 💙

Always working on my own practice—building strength, stability, and mental toughness right alongside my clients. 💪✨ I believe in challenging myself so I can better challenge and support those I work with. Practicing what I preach isn’t just important to me—it’s how I stay inspired, stay grounded, and show up as a positive influence every single day. Let’s keep growing together. 🙌

Practicing what I preach 👣✨

Stretching might not be the most exciting part of your workout, but it’s a game changer for staying pain-free and moving well. One area we often forget? Our feet! I start my day—and every class—by warming them up and giving them some love. Why? Because good foot flexion helps you squat down comfortably (no pain!) and makes everyday movements like picking things up so much easier. Don’t skip the feet—they’re the foundation! 💪🦶

I read a great article today, that said instead of setting "resolutions" that often times can be unrealistic and have an all or nothing approach, aim for setting "rituals" something that is gentle, repeatable and enjoyable!

I had never heard it proposed or explained this way!! Resolutions often come from a place of fixing yourself. Rituals, on the other hand, come from a place of caring for yourself.

If you are interested in starting a pilates ritual, I would love to support and guide you!!
