From the studio to the garden… 🌿
Sometimes the best Pilates studio has blue skies, fresh air & a few curious spectators. 🐴💚🐈⬛
Same time | same place next week😉

Horseback on Reformer and Spine Stretch Forward on the Mat are a lovely combination, each exercise supporting the other.
Horseback helps promote Centre strength, adductor connection & spinal length in flexion while Spine Stretch Forward encourages mobility, flexibility & in turn healthy happy supple spine.
On the Reformer I like to modify the shoulder circles into gentle ovals. Further note | using a Pole on the Mat can help prepare the shoulders & arms for working with the hands in straps, building confidence and body awareness along the way.
