For Clients: Exclusive Private Training

I work 1:1 with an small number of exclusive clients to:

Rebuild strength after injury or pain
Improve posture, flexibility, and functional movement
Feel confident, aligned, and energized in daily life

Every session is personalized, informed by science, and designed to meet your goals.

I see new instructors all the time, disappointed that a single certificate failed to make them feel confident inter teaching abilities.⁣
⁣
This comes down to three main reasons.....⁣
⁣
1️⃣Lack of real-life client experience⁣
⁣
You cannot replace this with online teaching, reading a book or watching someone else teach. You have to jump in with both feet. Get uncomfortable and build your experience.⁣
⁣
⁣
2️⃣Trying to teach “perfectly” rather than practically⁣
⁣
No one ever looks like the videos or manuals when they move in a class. You will be teaching perfectly imperfect clients and your teaching will match. Your job is to get them moving in the best and safest way they can.⁣
⁣
⁣
3️⃣Not knowing how to adapt for pain/injury⁣
⁣
This boils down to not knowing what the body is made of and how it works. While a basic anatomy course is a pre-requisite for most initial qualifications, it doesn’t arm you with the tools you need to deal with injuries. This is where additional time and training comes in.⁣
⁣
⭕️Save this if you’re tired of feeling unsure in class.⁣
⁣
Which one of these hit home for you?⁣

🔆It should inspire you.

🔆Challenge you

🔆And make you excited to teach again!

This is why I do what I do and the ethos behind every course, workshop and session I teach.

I created a learning space where Pilates instructors and therapists could come together to ask better questions, share knowledge and walk away with practical tools they can use straight away.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a ‘healthy’ relationship with social media?

Well, you can!

Here a just a few tips from @benstottpilates on how he navigates social media, posts quality content, has built an incredible following and has used this platform to leverage clients.

🙏Thank you so so much for coming into the instructor Academy and sharing your expertise with us Ben!

There is simply no evidence to say that flexing the spine or coming up from the floor, from a supine position into thoracic flexion is damaging or bad for clients with diastisis rectii. (DR)⁣
⁣
On the contrary, thoracic flexion and working directly on the rectus abdominis has been shown to help in the recovery of the abdominal separation.⁣
⁣
I have clients every day that are post natal with varying degrees of DR, still terrified of thoracic flexion exercises, for a variety of reasons.⁣
⁣
So rest assured instructors:
There really isn’t much that a postnatal client cannot do upon return to movement, it may need to be:⁣
⁣
— made smaller⁣
⁣
— adapted⁣
⁣
— or be aligned with a more personalized approach., on the side/at home
⁣
but you better believe they can join a regular class!

The reasons are of course endless but here are my top three......⁣
⁣
1️⃣This is HOW we move!⁣
⁣
Without being on one leg and being on one leg well, there would be no movement. There would be no propulsion across the ground. Walking maybe considered an easy and somewhat basic movement but it is essential and needs to be worked on and perfected to protect and nurture overall and optimal function. ⁣
⁣
2️⃣Pelvic floor/foot health and wellbeing.

In unilateral work the fascial tissue of the pelvic floor/foot is tensioned an appropriate amount. Not too much and not too little. ⁣
Too much tension and we get a rigidity and over gripping to the tissue, too little and there is laxity both through the tissues, joints and more importantly globally.⁣
Either of these extremes result in some sort of pelvic floor/foot dysfunction.
⁣
3️⃣Balance⁣
⁣
As we age balance becomes more and more important. We need to avoid falling as we age and breaking something. It is always easier to start working on balance when we are young. It is closely linked to our posture. While there is little evidence to prove that posture is responsible for pain, poor posture almost always negatively influences balance, equilibrium and the internal structures of our body.⁣

Are you scared to work with certain populations of clients for fear of hurting or injuring them?⁣
⁣
This is so so common among fitness professionals.⁣
You are not alone.⁣
⁣
We see this most often in instructors working with both pre & post natal clients and also clients with osteoporosis.⁣
⁣
That is why inside of the instructor academy the education around both these populations is focussed on deeply, to leave you in no doubt that you can help these clients become confident movers l, who get stronger and stronger as they continue to work with you.⁣

It never ends well!⁣ 😂
⁣
⁣Sometimes this is due to a language barrier, sometimes clients just don’t listen!⁣
⁣
☝️Firstly, Pilates is a mind connection methodology. Therefore clients should be listening to cues, interpreting them and then moving. Their interpretation still might not be what you meant it to be, but then that’s an interpretation issue that you and client can work on developing over time.⁣
⁣
👊🏻Secondly, how do they know the person next to them is doing the right thing? Add to this that everyone looks different, moves differently and is different, meaning they could both be doing the same thing, but it will look very different.⁣
⁣
👊🏻Lastly, some clients require adaptations within a movement either because they have an injury or limitation. Because of this, not everyone in the room will be doing the same thing.⁣
⁣
So to keep things safe, to keep everyone engaged, no matter their ability or language barriers, listen to the instructors cues and don’t copy the person beside you.⁣

That’s where you come in with your expertise, guidance and amazing knowledge!⁣
⁣
🦴Osteoporosis and osteopenia require a different kind of loading but loading none the less. The body has to be ‘stressed’ and challenged in just the right way for it to adapt and lay down both new tissue and bone in the right places.⁣
⁣
🦴 Knowing how to do this is one thing but actually implementing this information is another.⁣
⁣
@osteoporosis.pilates & I will be discussing and delivering our Blueprint for clients with osteoporosis and osteopenia inside of the instructor academy.⁣

Here’s the thing.

You can know all the movements and exercises under the sun. You can even be the best at doing them and teaching them.

⭕️BUT⭕️

If you don’t understand the ‘why’ behind them and what the ultimate goal is, then they are just movement.

🌟Wouldn’t it be great if we could move with alittle more intention.

🌟Wouldn’t it be great if you could move a client with a specific goal being met behind the scenes.

🌟Maybe it’s shoulder rehab so they can play baseball with their kids

🌟Maybe it’s that lady with a leaky pelvic floor that has been embarrassed for months but won’t stop CrossFit

🌟Maybe it’s the runner with recurrent hip flexor pain that no one can seem to fix.

All of this is possible by zooming out, looking a the body as a whole and learning more about each area, not just exercises.

That is exactly what we do inside the instructor academy.

The doors are now open for the only intake this year!!

Don’t wait.
Join us.

Unfortunately many clients and patients are still fed both these statements by practitioners.⁣
⁣
🦴When you understand the anatomy and demands placed upon the SI joint, you will easily be able to see AND explain to a client why the above statements are untrue.⁣
⁣
It is a strong joint and junction of the body, through which forces are transmitted effectively.
⁣
TOMORROW we will be talking much more about this and how it influences our entire spine in a free masterclass.

These may seem obvious but when a client experiences back pain it can often be overwhelming for them and the instructor and things can be overlooked.

1️⃣THORACIC MOBILITY⁣
⁣
This is a typically stiff and rigid part of the spine, so any movement here is a good thing to take the excess demand of the spine above and below. Flexion, extension, lateral flexion and rotation and all options as well as movement from internal aka the breath.⁣
⁣
2️⃣HIP DISASSOCIATION⁣
⁣
Both the actual movement and the education will help your client here. ⁣
⁣
a) Mobilizing the hips help to unlock and influence the lumbar spine. During a pain episode or injury the body stiffens to protect itself. During rehabilitation and recovery, gentle mobilization and education is required.⁣
⁣
b) The education around the hip joint moving independently of the lumbar spine is often helpful to clients in their other daily activities. This is not to say that we should always isolate, but occasional it helps to zoom in before zooming out again.⁣
⁣
3️⃣LUMBER SPINE MOBILIZATION
⁣
As covered above, in times of injury or painful episodes, the victim areas become rigid. All areas and joints of the body need to be able to move at all times, especially when under load. Being able to move the lumbar spine even a little will start to hydrate the fascia & begin the rehabilitation and reeducation required in this area.⁣
⁣
Join me THIS WEEK for a free masterclass all about the secret keys YOU already hold to treating back pain. It’s focus on what we can do, not what they cannot!⁣⁣

🦴 Back Pain is something that all clients will likely experience at some point in their time working with you. Or perhaps it was the reason they came to see you in the first place.⁣
⁣
🦴 Whatever the reason, you of course, want to do your best for this client and have them pain free and fitting fit in as little time as possible.⁣
⁣
🦴 BUT if you only know the exercise repertoire and not what the body is made of and how it really works then your efforts will yield minimal results.⁣
⁣
🦴 You will likely turn to googling back pain and get a mixture of outdated and false information.⁣
⁣
⭕️No flexion⁣
⁣
⭕️No extension⁣
⁣
⭕️Avoid anything that hurts⁣
⁣
⭕️Don’t lift anything heavy⁣
⁣
⭕️It must be a disc⁣
⁣
⭕️surgery is the only option⁣
⁣
I have heard them all and most of the time none of them are true.⁣
⁣
So join me for a free masterclass all about the secret keys YOU already hold to treating back pain. It’s focus on what we can do, not what they cannot!⁣

☝️Focus on one change in your own training or in your client/s sessions.⁣
⁣
No one can implement more than this and sustain it anyway, without feeling totally defeated.⁣
⁣
Also cellular change is what we are aiming at and that takes time, so make the 1% shift or change, do it consistently over time and monitor.⁣

🌟The wishing is over, it’s here.⁣
⁣
🌟THE INSTRUCTOR ACADEMY.⁣🌟
⁣
I have taught and been part of courses that focused on 1-1 coaching, group coaching, an evergreen approach, theoretical and practical elements.⁣
⁣
They all have their place and they are all exceptional for various reasons.⁣
⁣
So I wanted to create a programme where you get IT ALL. It’s what I wish I had when I was an instructor craving workshops and courses that taught me more than just exercises.⁣
⁣
1️⃣EVERGREEN MODULES.⁣
Let’s dive in to The Glutes, The shoulder Complex, The SI joint, The hip flexors, Pre and post natal training guidelines and specialist Pre and post natal conditions.⁣
You get lifetime access to these modules as I know you will want to dive into these time and time again.⁣
⁣
2️⃣MOVEMENT SUPPORT VIDEOS⁣
I use the word support here strongly, these videos are not a repertoire of exercises, they are movement inspiration ⁣
⁣
3️⃣1-1 COACHING⁣
Yes, you heard right, you get a bonus 1-1 session to use with me at the end of the course ⁣
⁣
4️⃣GROUP COACHING⁣
We meet every week for live Q&A sessions where we take a deep dive into case studies and any questions that you may have. ⁣
Within this segment I have brought in guest instructors, so you are learning from experts across the community. ⁣
⁣
So if you are in the market for filling in the gaps in your knowledge & becoming a confident instructor/fitness professional no matter who walks through the door.⁣

Cue the comments and cue feathers being ruffled!!⁣
⁣
👊🏻But hear me out...........⁣
⁣
1️⃣Without exception, the prenatal clients I work with all want to join a regular class. They want to continue exercising and moving with the community they have been and most importantly they want to continue being themselves, not suddenly take on a ‘ball of cotton wool’ identity that’s told to “just breathe”.⁣
⁣
2️⃣As long as the instructor knows what the body is made of and how it really works, there isn’t a huge amount that is contraindicated for prenatal clients.⁣
⁣
3️⃣With a few minor tweaks to the client or sometimes the entire class, a challenging and fun workout can be delivered to everyone.⁣
⁣
4️⃣The instructors job is the look after the client aka mum. The body aka mum will look after the baby.⁣
⁣

⭕️When I’m treating and training women with Pelvic floor issues, 9 times out of 10 they arrive with a preconception that they must ‘engage’ or ‘activate’⁣ these muscles all the time.⁣
⁣
⭕️While this isn’t entirely wrong. This kind of activation or engagement would be best left to a women’s health physio and pelvic floor internal specialist.⁣
⁣

⭕️The best place to start with clients in a studio or fitness setting is moving their entire body. Focusing on elements such as the glutes, the femur and hip joints, the foot and ankle and finally the breath and diaphragm.⁣
⁣
⭕️This has much better long term influence & outcome on pelvic floor issues, diastisis rectii and lower back pain as a result of these issues.⁣
⁣
⭕️To find out more about this approach you do, of course, need to have a deep understanding of what the body is made of and how it really works.⁣
⁣
So join me as The Instructor Academy kicks off for its second year running.⁣

Osteoarthritis (OA) has a physical component and a biological component.⁣
⁣
As movement instructors there are multiple things we can do to help a client that all fall under the physical umbrella.⁣
⁣
1️⃣Loading the knee/resistance training⁣
⁣
There is currently no evidence to support that loading the knee irritates OA symptoms. In fact building muscle can have a tensioning effect/lifting sensation at the knee joint, creating joint space and therefore reducing friction and inflammation in the long run.⁣
⁣

2️⃣Pilates⁣
⁣
Mat or equipment based can work wonders. A more gentle and slow mind body form of movement, will concentrate on form, alignment and sequencing all while calming the central nervous system through breath work ⁣
⁣⁣

3️⃣walking⁣
⁣
or at least encouraging them to walk at least 30 minutes per day, preferably outside and not on a treadmill.⁣
motion is very much lotion, when we are talking about OA of the knee. No one is saying jogging, let alone run, but walking yes!⁣
⁣
⁣

Knee pain is common but it isn’t as common to be an awesome coach or therapist and know exactly what to do.⁣
⁣
⁣Therefore a few things to focus on when dealing with knee pain are:
⁣
1️⃣Past injuries⁣
⁣
This may seem obvious, but everyone is so zoomed in on what JUST happened and the pain of right now, that they omit to ask about past injuries, operations or potential scar tissue.
⁣
All these will have an effect on the knee and how it moves.⁣

⁣
2️⃣Sports & Activities⁣
⁣
One question that is always asked is, “what happened?”⁣
⁣
But not “what have you been doing for the last 5, 10, 15 or 20 years?”⁣
⁣
Knees more commonly suffer from ‘wear and tear’ type injuries that will have built up from repetitive movements, done frequently over a long period of time. So be sure to find out what they have been up to in the past and learn the movements if you don’t know them.⁣
⁣

3️⃣Femoral rotation and placement⁣
⁣
Everyone has slightly different hip anatomy and therefore will move differently. Noticing and then influencing the rotation of the femur will have either a positive or negative effect on the knee.⁣
⁣

4️⃣Ankle mobility⁣
⁣
Don’t just think talo -cural joint, consider the tarsals & meta tarsals too!⁣
The ankle and foot should be mobile to navigate varying terrain when we are barefoot. Today we tend to wear shoes more than ever before and they limit the movement of the foot and we loose the ability to handle varying terrain because of a gross lack of mobility through the foot.⁣
⁣

5️⃣Hip stability/balance⁣
⁣
Movement comes from standing on one leg.
Read that again 😜

You would be surprised the amount of people that cannot stand on one leg for more than a few seconds. Therefore how are these people moving optimally?⁣
The overall health of the hip joint will effect the knee not only in terms of movement but in a traction and tensioning capacity too.⁣

Sadly I get this question most days, with clients often left overwhelmed by my answer and the fact that it is not as simple as doing three classes per week for the next three months.⁣
⁣
⭕️The body is not simple⁣
⁣
⭕️The body is not a calculator⁣
⁣
⭕️The body is not a robot.⁣
⁣
There are many variables that go into anyones body composition, let alone postnatally where things have shifted significantly.⁣
⁣
Here are just a few of the pillars to be considered……..
⁣
✅Movement⁣
✅Nutrition⁣
✅Hormones⁣
✅Stress⁣
✅Hydration⁣
✅lifestyle⁣
⁣
Who’s up for a mini series diving into all of these a bit more?

You guys seemed to like this one.☝️
⁣
So how exactly does this work?⁣
⁣
Well, the ankle and hip mirror one another and if they are not positively influencing one another and working together, the knee will often be the victim.⁣
⁣
This may not be an issue or cause you pain straight away, but over a period of time and repetitive movements often in linear motion that don’t support the spiraling nature of the body, can cause friction, inflammation and then pain and pathology can occur.⁣
⁣
That is a good enough reason for me to focus on ankle mobility and hip stability in all sessions with all clients.⁣
Think prevention over cure!⁣

You can’t tell a person what to do and I’m never going to be the coach or instructor that gives a plan or cookie cutter method.⁣
⁣
I will happily give tools, recommendations, experience, expertise and motivation where needed, however it is then the clients job to go away and implement these changes.⁣
⁣
What really helps this along is if the client is educated. That comes from an awesome instructor not only teaching exercises, giving lifestyle advice, etc, etc but also telling them why and educating them about their body⁣ along the way.

🦵🏻Arthritis
🦵🏻ACL injures⁣
🦵🏻Meniscal repairs⁣
🦵🏻Condro patella malacia⁣

Any official diagnosis can sound overwhelming. And these are just a handful of full of the most common issues you will see.
⁣
But the thing to remember as an instructor is, as long as you know what the body is made of, how it works and that your greatest influence might not be where the pain or diagnosis is, then you can get amazing results for your clients.⁣
⁣
You can have a positive effect on all of these issues, by zooming out at looking at the body as a global structure, instead of zooming in on the already inflamed and angry knee.

FREE KNEE WORKSHOP.⁣
⁣
The knee complex or the complex knee?⁣
⁣
It doesn’t have to be!⁣
⁣
By understanding that:⁣
⁣
— no matter what the issue with the knee is, the likely hood that it came from a disagreement between the hip and ankle is high.⁣
⁣
— The two mirror each other, work together and influence one another.⁣
⁣
— the knee doesn’t bend and extend ⁣
⁣
you will be able to deal with any knee issue that comes your way, build strength and get to the route of the issue.⁣

Just one of the many things we talk about in THRIVE.

What is a dowagers hump?

Or maybe you don’t know what it’s called but you have taught clients with it and had to make adaptations to movements and exercises but if you’re being completely honest, not sure you are on the right track?!

sound familiar??

Well the key to understanding how to influence what has gone on here is not just understanding what the body is made of and how it works but also understanding that we would be better looking a the global structure to have a more positive influence moving forward.

So excited to dive into this case study on our live Q&A this Wednesday !!

#thrive #fascia #tensegrity #push #pull #hump #collogen #dowagershump

Planning a dynamic and fluid reformer class can sometimes be tricky, so grab a pen and paper…… let’s make it easy!

1️⃣Write down the three spring selections you are going to use

2️⃣Write down the exercises or movements you are going to do under each spring tension.

3️⃣Order these exercises into a fluid movement sequence making the transitions part or the overall movements. Best to jump on and work through this in your own body.

During my years in the studio and in the clinic treating and training prenatal clients, I have seen and heard it all.⁣
⁣
There is not a lot I won’t support pre natal clients in doing…….. ⁣
⁣
However here are a few that I won’t allow.⁣
⁣
INVERTED POSTITIONS⁣
This is probably the top one for me. Anything where the heart is above the hips for any period of time, definitely in the third trimester and likely the second too. This is due to the unwanted and increased pressure on the vena cava.⁣
⁣
STATIC STRETCHING⁣
The body is an anti stretching structure to begin with. Add to this the relaxin that is released during pregnancy, it becomes far to easy for the body to stretch beyond its natural boundary and into the range where the fascia can become interrupted.
⁣
GETTING IN THE SHAPE OF YOUR LIFE/LOOSING WEIGHT⁣
These are both red flags for me and a sign that the client may need to speak to a specialist in order to heap them through this period.⁣
The tough discussions are 100% yours to have if you see something of concern as an instructor.⁣
⁣
⁣
On the whole JUST LISTEN to your body!⁣

Focus instead on these 3 things before work on anything else….

1️⃣breathing

Full 3D breathing. Where the client fully understands and feels the benefits. Breathing should start to awaken things within the body and naturally mobilize not only the ribs but milk the viscera and stimulate the myofascial matrix

As an instructor, you can easily weave this into some initial movements so you don’t loose your audience in the first few minutes. It should underpin ever position and movement

2️⃣mobilize the ankles

Any where you can get ankle movement in, do!
Best and most functional in standing. Ensure the ankle is not locked out in the end range of PF, as the knee has no choice but to collapse and fold from there rather than rotate and counter rotate.
If standing is not appropriate then other positions should be utilized

3️⃣mobilize the hips and work on balance.

Since the ankle and hips mirror each other, hips should really be our next port of call. Work on balance to build a beautiful positive relationship between the hip and ankle. This will create the best environment for the knee as well. Also play around with the placement of the femur (internal rotation and external rotation) in order to tension the PF fascia.

Try these things
Remember change takes time.
Ask your clients how they feel?

🙌🏻Networking⁣
⁣
This may seem pointless, but you have to get yourself known as an expert and a go to instructor. Think about how many Pilates, Yoga & fitness professionals there are out there.⁣
⁣
What sets you apart? What makes you different?⁣
YOU, YOUR PERSONALITY.⁣
⁣
So let it shine through, by meeting people, networking, events, speaking on panels, writing articles, going on podcasts.⁣
⁣
🙌🏻Doing a course/workshop/CPD⁣
⁣
This does kind of go without saying, but this should be happening almost all the time in the background. Schedule in time to spend 100% selfishly on you and your learning & development.⁣
I currently spend an hour a day! This can be more, but should not (on average) be less.⁣
It doesn’t always have to be an expensive course or a time consuming long slog.⁣
This could be a free one off masterclass or workshop. ⁣
⁣⁣
🙌🏻Do a class⁣
⁣
Find an instructor that you look up to and that inspires you. If this is not somewhere you can physically get to each week, then train with them online. Thanks 2020.⁣
This really is a non-negotiable⁣
⁣⁣
🙌🏻Explore 360 knowledge.⁣
⁣
Is there something in the health and fitness industry that you are interested in but it isn’t something you are about to get a degree in?⁣
⁣
It might be pre & post natal training or women’s health.⁣
⁣In which case explore it, follow the expert, do mini courses and free workshops/masterclasses with them. Read specialist books, use pub med and get analytical. This wont seem like work because you are likely researching yourself or someone you love.⁣

👉🏻Pain is common⁣
⁣
👉🏻Pain is not normal⁣
⁣
If we are honest we have warning signs and whispers, but have often lost the ability or chosen not to listen to our bodies.⁣
⁣
☝️In this clip taken from a recent workshop on Pre & Post natal training, we were discussing the do’s and do nots of training during pregnancy and the fact that the body is a really smart piece of kit and will subtly tell mum to move before her and the baby are in danger if it does not like a certain position or movement.⁣
⁣
LISTEN, the body talks.⁣

Working with pre and post natal clients, isn’t just about knowing anatomy and knowing the latest guidelines.⁣
⁣
It’s also about managing the client’s expectations.⁣
⁣
👇🏻Many women come into sessions and enter pregnancy 100% understanding that 9 months on they will have a baby, however they are often wrongly informed that 6-8 weeks after the birth, their bodies will return to ‘normal’.⁣
⁣
There are a number of things wrong with this:⁣
⁣
1. What the is normal?⁣
Perhaps there is a new normal.
A new challenge and journey?
⁣
2. Unrealistic expectations based on outdated advice and knowledgeable don’t match the reality of being in a post natal body. This can play havoc with them emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually.⁣
⁣
3. Everyone is different, not only because we are unique but also many women enter pregnancy at different levels of health and fitness.⁣
So ask, what was your fitness level like before?
Do you run? Did you lift weights? Etc etc
⁣
So as an instructor, fitness professional or therapist, it is important to manage client expectations, particularly focussing on the post natal portion, as that seems to be where most mis communication and understanding seem to be.⁣
⁣
I like to show them the second slide with an even gradient either side of the ‘birth’ line, signifying an even amount of time spent in the post natal period that often can equal the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trimester combined.⁣

SPOILER : often postnatal can extend into years! We will explore that in another post

There are many many things that you ‘should’ be doing as a new instructor. So much so that it can become completely overwhelming, so here a few of the things to focus on to move the needle!

1️⃣Take one class per week (minimum) live and in person. Choose a high level and experienced instructor that you look up to.
Really listen to the cues, how the instructor tells people who have no anatomy knowledge how to move their body and then layers in the cues once the client/s are moving.

2️⃣Take at lease one class online, live or pre recorded. You can take the class over and over again in the comfort of your own home. You can rewind, take notes, move and do the class for yourself etc etc

3️⃣Teach at least one family member or friend each week. This doesn’t always have to be an hour. Sometimes it’s better if it’s not to build your confidence and seem less overwhelming the first few times.

You might also consider taking a group of friends on a 6 week course so you can really develop yourself and them on the journey.

4. Consider the IP programme. My 6 week programme to get you clear and confident for your exam.
Link in the bio so you can read all about it in your own time.

In any position and in any movement.

✋🏻Hold the client still:

Now check………..

👉🏻Can they breathe ?

👉🏻Can they mobilize their pelvis?

👉🏻Can they mobilize their scapula?

👉🏻Can they mobilize their C/Sp?

The answer to all these questions should be YES otherwise they have become rigid and stiff. This will cause sheering, friction, inflammation and pathology over time.

👆🏻So here is where you start to move your client to longevity.

You are almost garenteed to work with women who have endometriosis or perhaps you have it yourself and want to know what you can do outside of surgery to help.⁣
⁣
😬Surgery will always be there, but it may need to be repeated if you opt for this route early on in your life.⁣
⁣
Therefore wouldn’t it be amazing if we could have a more conservative positive influence on it.?
⁣
Endometriosis is often caused by a strong stress factor.⁣
⁣
Remember Stress can be emotional, physical, mental or spiritual and can also be further broken down to past and present. So it might not be obvious.⁣
⁣
🤜🏻If we can rehydrate fascia through nutritious movement and restore the gliding properties the tissues need to function optimally along with teaching breath we can have amazing positive effects on endometriosis.⁣

WHAT IS FASCIA?⁣
⁣
To understand what fascia is we must understand embryology and how we developed. This is where living anatomy is understood!⁣
⁣⁣
We talk about this ALOT in THRIVE, let’s say every module AND every live Q&A, because it underpins every cue, every movement and everything we are made of.⁣
⁣⁣
⁣
⁣⁣
We also have many many dissection pictures and videos shared with you on THRIVE to highlight the power of embryology.⁣

🧠Think about it. We only have two feet on the ground when we are sitting, standing still or squatting (aka sitting down and standing up)⁣
⁣
👣To move efficiently we must be on one leg to start off with. We must be aware of the reaction our feet have with the ground and the influence that imparts on the rest of our body.⁣
⁣
⁣🦶🏻That’s why nearly all exercises I teach are unilateral, to promote movement or at least the notion of moving and training clients in that first inch, to set them up for success.⁣
