Pilates - does it look easy or not?

How we roll here! The springs allow us to find more movement in the “sticky” parts of our spine, plus, it feels delicious!

The advanced exercises use the fundamentals we’ve already learned; progressing as we practice. Next Saturday we’ll be at Canoe Beach to celebrate the end of MarchMatness with a class! Who’s in?! #marchmatness2024 #marchmatness #legpullfront #pilates #salmonarm #axispilates #shuswaplife #crosstrain

Such an important exercise… it’s always been a struggle for me. That almost always means it’s one I need more of - or perhaps some of the “prep” exercises that will be in our stories. There’s over 30 exercises in the MarchMatness highlight - you can use them to follow along to learn some at home fundamentals. We are celebrating the end of MarchMatness with a class at Canoe Beach Saturday March 30!! Who’s in?! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Tag a friend to join you for a two for one deal! #marchmatness #marchmatness2024 #swimming #pilatesswimming #axispilates #salmonarm #pilates #beachpilates #shuswaplife #salmonarmsmallbusiness #pilatesoutside

Our amazing volunteer body @theholisticallypractice has never done or seen this intermediate, somewhat complicated exercise.. I do my best to walk her through it all instead of breaking it down. Previous to this exercise, we already learned how to use our arms to pick us up, and we’ve opened the chest to prep, and now we lift and fly! I am so grateful to have @theholisticallypractice as a demo!! 🙏🙏🩶 PS. I am one day late with this post, March 14 is Double Leg Kick. Whoops! #lifeofabusinessowner #marchmatness #marchmatness2024 #doublelegkick #axispilates #shuswap #salmonarm #salmonarmsmallbusiness #pilates

It can be a bit of a brain teaser until you find the rhythm and flow; then it’s an ab burner! Quick, but controlled, this dynamic exercise is the first in a series of 5. It’s literally my job to make it look easy, I’ve spent more than a decade with a Pilates practice.. It’s all about progression! Start where you’re at and move forward. This month our posts and stories are offering free intro Mat exercises so you can join us for MarchMatness! Here the breath helps to stabilize the upper body and pelvis, arms and legs are the only thing moving. Inhaling for two “leg stretches” - one set. Exhaling the next two, or one set. 10 leg stretches, 5 sets of right and left. #marchmatness2024 #marchmatness #singlelegstretch #onelegstretch #axispilates #pilatesmat #classicalpilates #salmonarm #shuswap #thepilatesarchitects

Sweet Dreams about Pilates! A dedicated practice develops strength, flexibility, control, focus, breath, etc etc! Don’t be intimidated; in this Semi Private these gals are rocking an Advanced Chair Lesson under the watchful eye of our Teachers! #axispilates #connectedcentre #movebreathe #pilatesincanoe #pilatesforlife #RTL #returntolife #pilates #shuswappilates #salmonarmpilates #centre #connect #move #breathe #bebetter #contrology #classicalpilates #bcpilates #thepilatesarchitects #salmonarm #shuswaplife #pilateschair #pilatesfit

Two fave exercises around here: Running and Bottom Lift. The Reformers may look intimidating, but they are helpful to provide guidance and feedback. #axispilates #connectedcentre #movebreathe #pilatesincanoe #pilatesforlife #RTL #returntolife #pilates #shuswappilates #salmonarmpilates #centre #connect #move #breathe #bebetter #classicalpilates #bcpilates #thepilatesarchitects #salmonarm #shuswaplife #running #bottomlift #reformer
