Pilates & Yoga with Katja

These No Crunch Abs & Core Pilates exercises help you build strength through your deep abdominals, back and hips - while keeping the neck and spine supported.

A mindful, effective option if you prefer to avoid forward flexion, have neck sensitivity, or are looking for osteoporosis-safe core work.

Try these exercises at home, or join me for the full 20-minute class inside the membership — link in bio.

Move with control, awareness and care. 🫶

Does your movement practice change with your energy, your mood, your body, or your season of life?

Some days we need challenge.
Some days we need softness.
Some days we simply need to keep showing up in a way that feels supportive.

Adapting is not failing — it is part of learning to listen. 🤍

Five classes. One beautiful Summer Shine Pilates journey. ☀️

We have built layer by layer through this challenge - from full-body foundations and upper-body strength to back support, standing work, balance, and coordination.

And now we are finishing strong with Class 5: a focused lower-body practice for the glutes, legs, hips, and core, using a loop band and light weights for that satisfying extra challenge.

I hope these classes leave you feeling stronger, more connected, and proud of the time you have given yourself.

Class 5 is now waiting for you inside the membership, dear friends.

And if you have been following along from the outside, Class 1 is available on YT now.

You can also explore the full five-class challenge inside the membership with a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime. Link in bio.

See you on the mat.

How do you measure progress in your movement practice?

Sometimes it shows up quietly — in the way you move, breathe, stand, feel, and carry yourself through the day.

These small changes may feel subtle, but they are so very important. 🤍

What does consistency look like for you at the moment?

Maybe it is not about doing more, but about coming back to your body in small, regular ways that feel supportive.

Small moments count too. 🤍

☀️ A new series is beginning on the platform this week - and I’ve been looking forward to sharing it with you.

The Summer Shine Pilates Challenge is a five-class series I’ve put together to help you feel genuinely strong, energised, and connected to your body. Each class builds on the last, so by the end you’ll have moved through the whole body in a really considered, intentional way.

The first class is coming tomorrow, we begin with full-body strength and mobility: a grounding, flowing class that sets the tone for everything that follows.

If you’d like to move alongside us this summer, I invite you to join us inside the membership.

See you on the mat. Katja x

Recovery matters too ✨

After movement, our bodies often need a little time to slow down, release tension, and reset.

These are 6 of my favourite stretch & mobility movements to help unwind after exercise or after a long day - supporting mobility, easing tight muscles, and helping the body feel more balanced again.

Move slowly. Breathe deeply. Give your body a little care after all it has done for you.🤍

Want to practise the full routine? You can find this 20 min Post Workout Cool Down class inside my membership.

Do you usually take time to cool down after exercise?
