Vera Method

The first thing I ever learnt about pelvic floor training was that Kris Jenner does kegels at traffic lights 🚦🤣

And look… she’s not wrong. Kegels can help. But they’re not the only thing standing between you and peeing every time you skip, sneeze, or do a box jump.

One of my biggest regrets after having my son was not following a structured postnatal program that strengthened my pelvic floor as a whole system — not just “squeezing”.

As someone who’s always been active, my core felt weak, disconnected, and honestly… off. But because I looked “fine”, I thought I just needed to work harder.

Eventually I booked in with the hospital pelvic floor physio and learnt I actually had a hypertonic pelvic floor, meaning things were too tight, not too weak.

Learning how to coordinate, stabilise, and relax my pelvic floor and core together was the thing that actually changed everything.

Not kegels at every red light.

If you’re interested in a structured approach to your return to training after having a baby, comment ‘KEGELS’. I’d love to sign up the first 3 people to my Mother Body Rebuild program for FREE 🌹

A little note from me 🫶🏼

arms and abs challenge loading next week 💥

I didn’t grow up being told to strength train.

Not by doctors. Not by PE teachers. Not the fitness industry that sold us spin classes and 1200-calorie diets for two decades.

I went to an all-girls high school and didn’t know a single thing about anything other than ballet.

Now as a 31 year old woman, the research on what happens to women’s bodies without strength training is too significant to keep glossing over — and most of us are only finding out about it when we’re already in the middle of it.

From age 30, muscle mass begins to decline. Around menopause, that decline accelerates. And the downstream effects — on your heart, your bones, your metabolism, your independence in later life — are largely preventable.

Not with more cardio. Not with restriction. With resistance.

Swipe through for the data. Then save it, and send it to a woman in your life who needs to see it.

And when you’re ready to do something about it — Wednesday class, 6:30pm AEST. First one’s free. Code FIRSTCLASS. Link in bio.

Most Pilates classes aren’t wrong… they’re just not filling the gap your training leaves behind.

If you lift, do CrossFit, or train at high intensity, you’re already getting plenty of load, fatigue, and repetition. Your body is well-practised at pushing output.

What’s often missing is how you control that output.

Precision.
Alignment.
The ability to stabilise and coordinate under load.

That’s where a more classical approach to Pilates comes in.

Instead of adding more exercises that feel familiar, it focuses on refining how your body moves, so your lifts are cleaner, your posture holds, and your body isn’t relying on compensation when things get heavy or fast.
It’s not about doing more.

It’s about doing what your training doesn’t.
Train hard. Then train in a way that actually supports it.

Wednesday class is open. 🖤

Every week I run a live online Pilates class designed specifically for people who — anyone who moves hard and wants to move better.

45 minutes. Mat only. None or minimal equipment, no studio, no commute.

We work through the kind of deep core control, spinal mobility, and movement precision that your regular training doesn’t give you — and that your body genuinely needs to perform at its best long-term.

This isn’t a recovery class. It’s not stretching. It’s intelligent, progressive Pilates that complements the way you already train.

Wednesday 6:30pm AEST. Beginner to intermediate. We’re currently in week 8 of a ten week training block, but don’t let that discourage you from starting. We’ll meet you where you’re at.

First class free — use code FIRSTCLASS at checkout. Link in bio 🫶🏼
