I bet you didn’t know tight hamstrings may be contributing to your lower back discomfort👀

When your hamstrings feel tight, they can affect the way your hips and pelvis move, creating added tension through your lower back.

This supported stretch encourages length and mobility

1️⃣ Keep your extended leg active
2️⃣ Relax your shoulders
3️⃣ Breathe deeply as you ease into the stretch

And believe me, I’ve seen a lot🤪

After 20+ years as a Nurse and Pilates instructor, I’ve watched the practice evolve in so many ways🥹 but the foundations remain the same.

Pilates doesn’t need to be trendy, flashy, or advanced to be effective. It’s about creating a stronger connection with your body, supporting your mobility, and building strength that carries into your everyday life.

Come as a beginner, come with questions, come ready to learn more about the body you live in every day.

We’ll build from there🫂

The versatility is unmatched👏

We love using resistance bands to deepen a stretch, create gentle resistance, or add support where it’s needed.

Give this movement a try to take your side bend to the next level😉

No resistance band? Try using:
✨A towel
✨A belt
✨A yoga strap or rope

As always, move within a range that feels good for your body🫂
