Revival Method Pilates

Just a little Thursday reminder 💗​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​

Tight neck & chest? Chest expansion is your new best friend 😍 ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
You can see Susan’s tall straight spine & how she’s engaging her center & her back to pull the arms back 👏🏻 ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
HERES A TIP FOR YOU: ​​​​​​​​
If you typically feel your neck in this exercise, try reaching your knuckles to the floor & make sure your head is stacked over your hips. 💪🏻​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​

TRY THIS AT HOME : ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
1️⃣ Stand against the wall, walk you feet until your whole back is against the wall. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
2️⃣ Balance your weight on the balls of you feet & your heels. Push the floor away. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
3️⃣ Anchor the back of the hips (NOT your low back) into the wall. Pull your belly button in & up. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
4️⃣ Try to push the top of your head up to the ceiling without letting your chin go forward. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
5️⃣ Anchor your shoulder blades into the wall while still pulling your middle back into the wall. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
And vvvuuuala!!! There you have your ideal posture 😃

Good ol’ Joe 😉 Joe is teaching an exercise called “breathing”. It’s a great one for tight backs. ​​​​​​​​

Joe Pilates often said “physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness" 😁​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​

Why do we use the ball/magic circle? ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Pilates props can not only make the exercise more challenging, they also can help you connect deeper to your powerhouse. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
One of my personal favorites is using the magic circle for my inner thigh connection in rolling like a ball. It helps me to articulate my spine & roll smoother! Do you have a fav?​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​

Revival method was opened to provide the surrounding community with high level pilates privates for all! ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​

Did you know that Pilates can make you taller?!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
In Pilates, we emphasize breathing for multiple reasons. One of them being that when you take a deep breath into your ribs, it actually decompresses your spine since our ribs are attached to our spine!

Reaching your goals one pilates session at a time👊🏻
