🧘‍♀️ Neutral Pelvis 101
Ever wonder if your spine is getting the support it actually needs?

Try this quick self-check👇
✨ Place your hands on your hips with index fingers on your p***c bone.
✨ If the triangle they form is level, you’re in a neutral pelvis — the sweet spot for core activation, spine support, and pain-free movement.

🐶 “Happy puppy” tilt? Fingers are too low = forward tilt = low back strain risk
😔 “Sad puppy” tuck? Fingers too high = tail tucked = flattened spine

🎯 Your goal: the balanced, in-between space.
It’s small, subtle—and powerful.

As a kid, I was “the bendy one.” I could twist, flip, and stretch in ways others couldn’t. It made me feel unique and special.
But in my teens, the unexplained pain and injuries started. By my twenties, things got worse—chronic symptoms, no clear answers.
After years of searching, I finally found the name for what was happening to me: hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. And suddenly, my life made sense.

You’re not “just sensitive.” You’re not imagining things. Your body deserves answers.

Let’s talk about a condition often hidden behind “cool party tricks”—like bending your fingers all the way back or twisting into wild positions.
For some of us, that flexibility is more than just fun—it’s a medical condition called hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS).

The Ab series consists of five moves that alternate between single and double leg movement. You can used several different props to get your body to fully understand the Ab work. If any of the moves cause discomfort something needs to change. Work in the muscles is not considered discomfort learning how to differentiate potentially dangerous pain and working pain is crucial to developing a strong core. .

Single leg circle to get you noticing all the differences from one side to an other. I always grew thinking I was supposed to naturally be symmetrical simply because I had two legs and two arms. Turns out we are not symmetrical at all.

The pilates hundred is one of the most recognized classical exercises. It’s meant to warm up the body for the rest of the repertoire to come. There are many variations and ways to accommodate this exercise for anyone at any stage in their pilates practice. Here I show my favorite variation for someone with low back pain or SI joint issues.

When starting an exercise practice after injury things might look different than expected. Being both active and proactive to keep pain at bay will help the strengthening process occur more easily.

Remember to practice your exercises. If you had a super fun weekend or maybe you did extra chores. You might want to do your foam roller exercises. If you have an arc barrel take advantage of it and use it as much as possible.

Sometimes neck pain can make it hard to exercise. These are current routines I use my clients to help different types of needs. I have suggestions as to whom this benefits. Do remember that all bodies are different it’s crucial that we listen to ourselves. If something feels gross, icky, ouchy or you’re just not sure. Don’t do it, do something that felt good prior and ask me about it. I’m always happy to chat about other options. 🎥🎥🎥if you would like to see any of those routines in a short video format let me know! 🤗🤗🤗
