1) sound on for maximum cuteness and/or roasting. 2) check each image caption before you @ me (here’s looking at you Pilates Police 🤷🏼♀️)
I didn’t spend tens of thousands of pounds on extra training/workshops/mentoring to go with my years of Pilates training to not use that knowledge to better improve the results of my clients. If I feel someone needs a cheeky rehab/breakdown/complimentary exercise, and it’s not from the original Joseph Pilates repertoire, you better believe I presume he won’t mind!
It’s not that I’m against weight-loss goals, and it’s not that I judge you if that’s what you personally sell - it’s just not my bag. It’s never my personal goal (there’s a lot of privilege there, I’m aware), it’s not what I’ve trained in, and it doesn’t excite me. There’s lots I CAN do for you, but offer to help you lose weight as your primary goal isn’t one of them.
I have big plans. I know The Bump Plan®️| TTC/Pre/Postnatal will continue to grow and help thousands more women. And I’m confident that I can do that whilst also knowing in my heart that it didn’t negatively affect the kids 🤞🏻
There are times in my life I’ve been super strong and fit. There have been times where I’ve come out of a 3-day traumatic labour and not given 2 💩’s about fitness. My clients have trained with me through 2 pregnancies, 2 caesarean recoveries, and multiple races/event training panics. My fitness levels/body shape/strength have little relection on my skills as an instructor and more to do with the fact our bodies and fitness change through life - AND THAT’S NORMAL!
I’ll happily discuss pelvic floor function, bowel movements, diastasis, labour, relationships, hormones, mental health etc etc if it helps someone else. I’m an open book and since I’m not on Instagram to get laid, I’ll keep going.
Whilst I daily want to show the world how freaking adorable my 3 and 7 year old are, there’s just something for me about strangers seeing my children’s faces, AI threats, and their lack of choice in what I share, that doesn’t sit right. I love seeing everyone else kids (selfish I know) and have no judgement on others sharing, but I don’t see the benefit to showing mine, even when I work in the motherhoo
