Today at Oswestry Leisure Centre we’re focusing on pelvic rotation, SIJ stability, and side-body mobility—key ingredients for smoother, more efficient walking and movement.

Expect a mix of:
🔹 Gentle mobility to free up the hips and spine
🔹 Targeted strengthening around the SIJ
🔹 Side bending and fascial stretching to restore balance through the body

Perfect if you’ve been feeling stiff, tight through the hips or lower back, or just want to move with more ease and flow.

Spending as little as 10 minutes a day for 7 days with this free course has improved my running technique. Relearning movement that feels easy, makes running a pleasure rather than a pain!

Working through a Feldenkrais lesson recently reminded me just how much our habits shape the way we move. Often it’s not injury or stiffness that limits us most, but the patterns we fall into without realising.

The wonderful thing is — it’s never too late to relearn. By doing less, listening more, and giving the nervous system space to calm, we can rediscover ease, fluidity, and a stronger sense of connectedness in how we move.

Sometimes the smallest shifts bring the biggest changes.
