DID YOU KNOW? The act of standing up once per hour

DID YOU KNOW? The act of standing up once per hour is more effective than walking on a treadmill for 15 minutes, imagine if we were standing out of our chair every 10-15 minutes even if we were to sit back down!

Go check out Ben’s blog in the bio to read on how you can improve your body at the desk.

COORDINATION OF THE DIAPHRAGMS - have you read Kat

COORDINATION OF THE DIAPHRAGMS - have you read Kath’s interview with a client on how the Pilates method assisted her to increase her oxygen saturation levels, eliminate a persistent cough and improve her continence? Link in bio 👆

This Pilates story demonstrated the importance of the coordination between the breathing diaphragm and the pelvic floor diaphragm, which are then integrated with the deep postural muscles of the abdominals and spine.

The coordination of all these muscles in a healthy body is activated in anticipation of movement to provide a stable base from which we can move. Generally, we really don’t have to think about it!

Unfortunately, this coordinated effort can become dysfunctional if there is a disruption to any part of the system. This may be due to surgery, injury, pregnancy, respiratory disorders or inactivity. This is when it is important to consciously focus on re-establishing the synergy between these muscles and functional stability of the torso. The Pilates Method can play a major role in this.

NECK STRETCHES- after a morning of teaching online

NECK STRETCHES- after a morning of teaching online in front of a screen, studio manager @bjrashleigh_pilates_movement have been using these as a go to.

💥Holding the chair to anchor the shoulder of the stretching side.

💥Using the opposite hand pressure to work some proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching

💥Throat stretch with mouth open and closing to an overbite gives a great stretch through the front of the neck.
