A photo reminds me of the transient nature of life and relationships, especially in a setting as dynamic as living on the water. People come and go like the tides—some anchoring themselves for a while, others drifting with the seasons. This photo reminds me of these special moments which serves as a timeless keepsake, preserving the emotions, stories, and connections that made those times meaningful. Such images evokes nostalgia, gratitude, and a sense of continuity amid change, reminding us of the unique journeys we share with others along life’s ever-moving currents.

My love of yoga has not diminished in over 16 years of regular practice and teaching.

“Yoga has an extremely balancing effect on the nervous system through the use of deeper breathing. It is a very detoxifying practice through the twists and turns of the postures, helping to bring hydration and fresh blood supply to the organs and joints. The focus and concentration required in some of the postures keeps you very anchored in the moment and out of the distractions of the day, which helps to create a bit of space in the mind.”

I am 2 years in Reformer Pilates Instructor and graduate Teacher from 2 schools.

What are the key benefits of Reformer Pilates?
Beyond the physical and mental health benefits of working out, here’s are just some of the reasons it is an effective way to exercise:
Quickly build core strength and tone muscles.
Avoid injury with low impact movements.
Improve posture, flexibility and balance.
The springs are there to offer stability and resistance and build strength while our body is supported by the machine.Improve mental health with a mind-body workout.

I am a Certified Mat Pilates Level 1 Instructor

Mat Pilates is a form of Pilates performed on a floor mat using body weight for resistance, focusing on core strength, flexibility, and overall body awareness. Unlike Pilates done on specialized equipment like the Reformer, mat Pilates requires minimal props, making it accessible and convenient.

Differences:

Mat Pilates uses a mat and body weight; Reformer Pilates uses a machine with springs for adjustable resistance.
Mat Pilates emphasizes controlled movements and breathing without external resistance.
Equipment-based Pilates can target muscles more intensely due to adjustable resistance.
Benefits of Mat Pilates:

Improves core strength and stability
Enhances flexibility and posture
Increases body awareness and control
Accessible anywhere without special equipment
Supports injury prevention and rehabilitation through gentle, controlled movements
Mat Pilates is ideal for building foundational strength and mobility, suitable for all fitness levels.

Education is key to quality of teaching
I look forward to sharing with you.

Improving mobility, stability and flexibility to better you!

Feet are your grounding tool. Notice how I am moving and finding the correct balance and connectivity with feet before I begin Warrior 1.
Take your time, maybe you only practice one pose and hold it for a few breaths on each leg.
Stretch out with Downward facing dog to end.
Love and Light, have a happy weekend

👇
Warrior 1 or Sanskrit name Virabhadrasana 1
This warrior pose is the basic standing pose in yoga. It strengthens the legs and balance and creates good flow from the feet to the head.
Holding this position for a long time can be challenging and fortifying. Shorter periods in the pose will build strength gradually.

Yoga pose twists - remember the breath helps find space to twist from your centre. The more you relax & breathe the more comfort and balance is discovered.

Why twist
Squeezing the organs during a twist can temporarily constrict blood flow, and the release allows fresh, oxygenated blood to rush in, helping to flush out toxins.
