Train with Jane Pilates in Cairns

Layering options in a jump board class:
Pressing in and out, calf raise, jumping, jumping with arms up, jumping in chest lift with arms forward, jumping in chest lift with arms behind head, alternating legs, single leg and much, much more 🎈🎈🎈❤️❤️❤️

How to work with me - it’s easier for me to explain my schedule this way rather than send you a timetable 😂 because I do so many different things!
I teach:
Online private sessions
Online semi private sessions
In person private sessions
In person mat/reformer hybrid class
Specialised workshops in person and online
In person reformer classes
My schedule is not the same every week - my partner does FIFO so I lighten my schedule on the weeks when he is home so we can spend some time together 🩵

There is so much to learn in Pilates! I was doing some roller work on the floor recently and then I remembered you can use it on the reformer. Haven’t done this one in a while! It’s fun and a great balance challenge, plus a nice release for the back and shoulders.

Schedule change for next Wednesday
Wishing you all a Fabulous Friday 🩵

Love this delicious roll back over the box. Here we can enjoy some spinal articulation, some abdominal work and some thoracic extension all in the same exercise. It’s easy to flow from here into tabletop to do some challenging ab work and then roll up, pick up the straps for some chest expansion and so on 🩵

Lunges
add arms/add leg float
Rolldowns/spine wave with arm variations
sit to stand/squats/arm scoops/hug a tree/ leg floats/upupdowndown/double leg float/teaser variation

Here’s one of my favourite exercises: lunges with the short box on the carriage up against the shoulder rests, with back heel up against the box. For my hypermobile and repeatedly rolled ankles, the box gives me a bit of support, feed back and stability to enjoy some lovely lunges.
From here it’s also easy to flow into some squats/sit to stand, and some arm scoops, among many other things!
