*NEW BLOG*
Up until about 10 years ago I thought squatting was just what bohemian types like Boy George did in posh London houses in the 80s. And the only actual squatting I ever really did was when I was ‘caught short’ as my mother would say when out walking in the countryside. My ballet pliés as a child were so limited my frankly terrifying ballet teacher Miss Lewis gave up with a theatrical tut and toss of her head, utterly baffled of my lack of bend.
Since making movement central to my life, squatting seemed to become a lot more complicated. We were taught on my original formal Pilates training, the ‘Pilates Squat’. This was where everything was aligned, feet exactly hip width apart and knees were to bend over first and second toe and bend to make perfect zig-zag. Everyone seemed to be able to simply lower and zig-zag so much more than me, so once again I decided I was a ‘person-who-cannot-squat’. Miss Lewis was right.
But over the years as the attitude towards teaching people Pilates and movement has developed from strict and often unfounded beliefs of perfection to focus, thankfully, much more on teaching people to find their best and happiest type of Pilates and movement. So has how we need to approach The Squat. It is about finding your own personal squat…ok…so…is it hiding in a wood somewhere…and where is the map? ….

Have you got a Wheatie Bag? They are wonderful and I always recommend them to clients to use whenever you can and always after a massage treatment to keep the warmth in their soft tissues. Why not nip down to support our beautiful BoA after Storm Bert’s battering and get one of these gorgeous ones from ? Locally made and filled with relaxing local lavender they are a brilliant gift to pop in the microwave for 90 seconds…just a perfect bit of time to do some heel raises or practise standing on one leg.!
