Comment TEACHERTRAINING for details on my 3-Day Pe

Comment TEACHERTRAINING for details on my 3-Day Pelvic Health Pilates Immersive Training, September 24–27, 2026.

This training sold out last year and is currently completely full, with a waiting list for the Dublin, Ireland training this June.

Now, onto today’s reel…

These are 3 Pilates cues I never use.

Not because they’re “wrong,” but because I’ve found there are often more effective ways to help clients connect, move well, and build true core function.

The words we choose impact everything. A cue that works for one body may create unnecessary tension, confusion, or compensation in another.

As Pilates teachers, our job isn’t simply to repeat cues we’ve heard before. It’s to understand the intention behind them and choose language that creates the outcome we’re looking for.

This same clinical reasoning is a huge part of my teacher training.

Over three immersive days, we’ll dive into:
• Diastasis recti
• Pelvic organ prolapse
• Incontinence
• Core and pelvic floor function
• Assessment strategies
• Matwork progressions that help clients move beyond the basics safely and effectively

The training represents more than 20 years of experience specializing in prenatal and postnatal Pilates, distilled into practical tools and programming strategies you can immediately apply with your clients.

Comment TEACHERTRAINING and I’ll send you all the details.

Pilates isn't just about a stronger core and pelvi

Pilates isn't just about a stronger core and pelvic floor. It's about building a body that continues to serve you for years to come.

Save the seven exercises for later.

And tell me....what sport or activity do you play (or want to get more into?) 🎾

Pickleball and padel is all the rage over here at the moment!

Comment TEACHERTRAINING and I'll send you the Belle Immersive Teacher Training details.

This is not your typical hotel conference room certification.

Join us September 24-27, 2026 at the lakeside Bloom Holistic Retreat Centre, just outside Kingston, Ontario, for four immersive days of movement, learning, connection, and restoration.

Together we'll dive deep into the topics movement professionals ask about most:

✨ Diastasis Recti
✨ Pelvic Organ Prolapse
✨ Incontinence
✨ Pressure Management
✨ Prenatal & Postnatal Exercise Progressions
✨ Returning to Running, Lifting, and Impact

You'll leave with proven tools you can immediately apply with clients, a comprehensive printed 65 page training manual, and a deeper understanding of how the core, diaphragm, and pelvic floor truly work together.

And unlike most certifications, you'll do it surrounded by nature, nourishing food, lakeside views, and a community of women who are just as passionate about movement as you are.

The June training in Dublin sold out with a waitlist.

If you've been thinking about joining us in Canada this fall, I'd love to have you there.
