The Pelvic Stack
Most people think of “core strength” as planks and sit-ups, but real core stability begins with something far more subtle and powerful — your alignment.
The Pelvic Stack is the relationship between your ribcage and pelvis.
When these two are balanced, your spine is supported, your breathing deepens, and your pelvic floor has the foundation it needs to function with ease.
This is when you find "core calm"
When they’re not, the body compensates , often with gripping, bracing, or collapsing and that’s when discomfort shows up.
For many women, this misalignment is at the root of pelvic floor dysfunction, lower back pain, leaking, or simply feeling like it’s hard work just to stand tall.
Learning to “stack” the ribs over the pelvis changes how your whole body carries you.
The benefits go beyond posture.
Your core muscles engage more naturally.
Intra-abdominal pressure balances instead of straining the pelvic floor.
Everyday movements, from bending to lifting feel more fluid and less taxing.
Pelvic health is supported, reducing the likelihood of pain, prolapse, or leakage.
This isn’t about holding yourself rigid. It’s about creating a living alignment that adapts as you move.
That’s when your body feels both supported and free.
We’ll be exploring The Pelvic Stack in depth at the next Pelvic Potency workshop on 20 September.
Attend on person or online via Zoom.
If you’ve been leaking when you sneeze, bracing your back just to stand, or feeling unsteady in your own body, this is where you begin to restore confidence and ease.
