Spend a lot of time at a desk? 🖥️📈

These 5 exercises can help mobilise your hips and improve upper back mobility - and all you need is a wall.

Here’s how to work through the variations 👇

1️⃣ 90° Pelvic Curl

Place feet on the wall slightly higher than knees. Tuck your pelvis towards your nose and peel your spine off the floor. At the top, squeeze your glutes and lengthen through your hip flexors before articulating back down through your spine.

2️⃣ Kneeling Single Leg March

Kneel an arm’s length from the wall with your hands supported. Keep your body upright and stabilise through your standing glute as you open one knee to the side and step the foot forward from the hip. Repeat on both sides.

3️⃣ 90/90 Lunge with Thoracic Rotation

Kneel with your back knee against the wall and one foot forward. Rotate your chest away from the wall, then lift and rotate towards it. Keep your torso as close to the wall as possible throughout.

4️⃣ Seated Lateral Lean

Sit against the wall, hands behind your head. Keep the your hands against the wall as you lean to one side. Keep both sit bones grounded. Repeat on the other.

5️⃣ Seated Single Leg Lifts

Sit against the wall and draw one knee towards your torso. Hold it there. Lift the opposite leg as high as you can without your back coming away from the wall.

📌Save this post to come back to the next time your desk has had you sitting for a little too long!

If “tuck your pelvis” has always left you feeling confused... you’re not alone. 🫶

It’s one of the most common Pilates cues, but it’s often misunderstood.

Here’s what to think about instead 👇

✨ Start by finding a neutral pelvis. Rather than forcing a tuck, think about creating a balanced starting position.

✨ Move from your core, not your hips. Use your exhale to gently engage your deep abdominals and let the exercise happen with control.

✨ Less is more. A small adjustment is often all you need. The goal isn’t to flatten your back - it’s to create stability so the right muscles can do the work.

At MWM, we believe understanding 𝘸𝘩𝘺 you move is just as important as 𝘩𝘰𝘸 you move.

We’d love to welcome you into our studio. 🤍

Ever wondered how your Pilates classes come together? 🤔

Every class starts with intention.

Before you arrive, SJ spends time testing the exercises herself, refining the flow, and making sure each exercise can be adapted to suit different bodies, abilities, and goals.

We believe the best classes are the ones that are thoughtfully prepared, so you can walk into the studio feeling supported, challenged, and confident.

💬 We’d love to know... what keeps you coming back to your favourite class each week?

A stronger core isn’t built by doing more crunches... it’s built by training the right muscles. 🙌

Your deep core works alongside your back, pelvic floor, diaphragm, and hips to create the stability and control that Pilates is known for.

Consider this your sign to stop counting crunches... and book a Pilates class instead.😉

The dead bug is a simple exercise, but it can be surprisingly challenging when you focus on what your body is actually doing.

Using a resistance band adds an extra challenge while helping you work on core stability, coordination and control - without simply adding more reps.

Here’s how to work through the variations 👇

1️⃣Dead Bug + Shoulder Flexion

Keep your legs still while slowly reaching your arms overhead.
The challenge is maintaining control through your trunk rather than allowing your ribs or pelvis to shift.

2️⃣Dead Bug + Leg Extension

Keep your arms steady as you slowly extend your legs away from you.
Focus on keeping your pelvis stable throughout.

3️⃣Dead Bug + Single Shoulder Flexion

Alternate reaching one arm overhead at a time while keeping your lower body still.
This introduces an asymmetrical challenge, asking your core to work harder to keep you stable.

4️⃣Dead Bug + Arms & Legs

Once you can comfortably control the previous variations, reach both arms overhead while extending both legs.
This increases the demand on your trunk stability.

👉 The goal isn’t to see how far you can reach.

It’s to see how well you can maintain control while you move.

If your lower back starts to arch or your pelvis begins to shift, reduce the range of movement. Quality comes before adding more challenge.

📌 Save this workout for your next core session!
