Are you ready for spring?

Published about 2 months ago • 1 min read

Happy almost spring! It's my favorite time of year when the garden bursts with new life and the feel of the sun on my face feels like heaven. My birthday is the last day of winter and it always feels like I come alive again in the spring.

It's time to get out into the world again, to go for walks and get active. If you have any aches and pains from sitting for hours or being too still over the winter, listen up! I've got an opportunity for you to work with me to feel better... so good, in fact, that you may find yourself dancing in the kitchen. Or whatever you do when you feel so free you've got to express your joy!

I had a wonderful time creating the first Kitchen Dancer group coaching program and leading the first cohort through the material. I learned a lot and made some updates and added some extras. It was fun and the students had transformative results that I'll be sharing with you in the next weeks.

The next Kitchen Dancer program starts April 7th, I hope you'll join us!

Here's the sales page that will tell you all about it: https://pilateshomepractice.com/kitchendancer/

Early bird price through March 18th.

If you want a taste of my teaching style and to see what we'll be exploring together, here's a free mini-course I made for you. https://pilateshomepractice.teachable.com/p/7-really-good-reasons-to-dance-in-your-kitchen

With love, gratitude and spring excitement,

Simple shifts will make a huge impact as you become aware of the daily postural patterns that keep you in pain and add bite-size exercises into the things you're already doing everyday. Soon you'll feel lighter on your feet and you'll bounce and glide through your day.

If you ever feel pain in your knees, hips or shoulders you'll probably benefit from exploring the relationship of your feet to the rest of your body. Just a small shift in the way you stand into your feet will cause a ripple up your whole body. Stronger feet allow you to release tension up above and feel more grounded and at ease. It can be really simple to make a huge impact. Surprising, right? I had no idea when I first started to examine the role my feet play in my posture and the way I...

It's the end of another year. How are you, Reader? Are you the kind of person that does inventory? Do you take the time to look back and celebrate your triumphs, ponder the things that failed and dream about what you'll upgrade in the new year? Everyone has a different way of doing it and who knows what works best. One year I scribbled on some scrap paper as I shivered in my freezing car, waiting for my children to have enough of sliding down a snowy slope on inner tubes with their cousins. I...

My dad turns 88 this August. He taught me a lot of things about living a good life. He says having a project that you're passionate about keeps you vital. He lives with my mom in Big Bear Lake, California in the dream home they had built at the edge of the San Bernardino national forest overlooking the beautiful lake below. For years the canyon outside the back deck was a tumble of brambles, trash and discarded odds and ends. Kind of a dump. It was really too steep to walk down. In the winter...
