Back-to-School Pilates

I hope the end of the summer finds you well. It has been a hectic one for me, and with the chaos, one thing has helped me stay strong: Pilates.

When things got challenging I made excuses: “I’ll do my workout later.” “It won’t matter if I miss one day on the Reformer.” They added up until I felt tired, stiff and generally not myself.

A firm nudging from a friend prompted me to apply the approach I take with my own clients. Each week I set aside one hour on the Reformer for a personal workout, incorporating jumpboard for cardio and weights for resistance. After 8 weeks I felt strong enough to run my first ever 5k.

Once again I see how intentional, deliberately planned Pilates workouts are non-negotiable for me.

I give the same attention to clients. Exhausted? We adjust to a moderate pace. Full of tension? We work out the stress.

Sessions at D4 Pilates motivate you to keep going, while working from the inside out. We pay attention to alignment and form.

You’ll feel how Pilates leads to more strength, confidence and motivation in everyday life. You’ll have greater awareness of how your body moves. You’ll know when to push yourself and when to step back and listen. You’ll feel happier looking after yourself, and others around you will notice.

I’ve been in the position of feeling like the first step towards the Reformer is just too hard. And now I’m here to help.
