Hello, I love (and am exceptionally good at) finding adaptive and alternative ways to do exercises. I know the importance of building strength and movement for your health and even more so as you get older. None of us are getting out of here alive, but that doesn’t mean you need to become frail and weak. It […]

Do you need a body and mind reset?
I hope you are well this Wednesday… This may or may not be something you want to hear, but we are entering the last quarter of the year! I find this is a good time of the year, holidays are mostly done, to do a body and mind reset. My free 5-day body and mind […]
Who benefits from doing Pilates?
Hello, I have been teaching Pilates since 2009! I absolutely love teaching it in my live online classes and in 1:1 sessions. The thing I love most about it is it’s so adaptable and I am yet to work with someone that couldn’t get a benefit from the exercises, no matter how we adapted them. […]
What’s the best detox?
I hope you are well this Wednesday… Last week, someone asked, ‘what’s the best detox to do? they were feeling bloated and sluggish’. Now, the response I gave probably wasn’t what they wanted to hear. I am sure they were looking for a quick fix pill/diet/juicing protocol they could follow for a few days. I […]

Boom and bust energy cycles. The difference between fatigue and lethargy
I hope this email finds you well. I recently did a podcast episode talking about energy, being in a cycle of boom and bust and understanding the difference between fatigue and lethargy and how to heal from each. If you have ever been unwell, you have likely experienced fatigue. If you live with a chronic […]
Do you suffer with lower back pain?
I hope you are well and feeling good in your body. I was talking with someone the other day about priorities as a middle-aged woman – it feels wild to think I am middle-aged, but at 44, statistically, I am! anyway… what we were talking about when it comes to our health and fitness, our priority […]
Do you need to escape?
Hello, I struggle to rest and relax in my own home… It’s where I work, so my mind constantly thinks about what needs to be done, what services I can offer, and what’s next… It’s constant and difficult to switch off from. I need to escape my house to recharge… Do you, like me find it […]
Do isometric exercises really lower blood pressure?
Hello, Did you see in the news last week a report that isometric exercises lower blood pressure? I didn’t, because I don’t read or watch the news, but a couple of you reached out to ask… So is it really true? The short answer is yes, but there is a but after that… Isn’t there […]
