Keep moving- Pilates with Valerie is your answer!

I am sitting at my laptop right now.

Seven hours straight.
Curved over like a question mark.
A posture only my mother could love.

Fully absorbed in writing.

And I’m perfectly content with it.

No guilt about being still.
No voice telling me to stand up.
No worry that I’m doing my body harm.

Because sitting isn’t the issue.
It’s what it quietly takes away.

If chairs didn’t exist and the only option was the floor, your day would look very different.

You would fold through your hips.
You would sit cross legged.
You would squat to get down and squat to get up.

Children get all of this without thinking.
Adults lose it the moment we choose the chair.

So if sitting removes so much movement, why am I fine sitting here?

Yes, I know. A plot twist.

Because I know exactly what the chair takes away.
And I have a practice that gives it back.

When I say practice, I do not mean keeping active or counting steps.

I mean deliberately giving my joints the shapes they no longer get during the day.

If you are coming to one of the January workshops, this is the principle we have built on for years.

When I close this laptop later, I will train.

Not out of virtue.
No halo here.

More because seven hours hunched over a keyboard has probably turned me into a human croissant.
A slightly overbaked one.

You have heard the phrase move it or lose it.
Joints take that literally.

Your body does not store movement for a sunny day.
It responds to what you ask of it today.

If you sit from sunrise to sunset and never bring those movements back, the message is
I do not need this anymore.
And the body says
Fair enough. We will get rid of it.

Hips are meant to fold and turn.
Your spine is meant to change shape.
Your shoulders are meant to reach and support you.

If they do not do those things, the ability fades.

You can buy the ergonomic chair.
You can upgrade the desk.
You can stand up every twenty minutes because your watch nags you.

But if your joints never get the movements they need, something will still be lost.

Because the fix is not furniture.

It is the practice of giving your body back the shapes modern life removes.

Here is the shift I want you to see.

Mobility and flexibility are not achievements.
They are not fix this, achieve that, tick a box.

They are habits.
More like brushing your teeth.
Small bits of daily upkeep that keep you loose, capable and out of trouble.

Bodies do not get tight because we sit.
They get tight because we sit and then never undo it.

If you are a human with joints and you want to keep them working, you need regular mobility.

Use what you have been given or you will lose it.
Choose to keep it and your body will meet you halfway.

It is far more cooperative than most humans.
