When you don’t want to work out by yourself, just set yourself up with a mirror…and Ladder Barrel 🤭🤭😂🤣😂👀 Today’s workout is from @merrithew Total Barre® Foundation Course, my favourite section to teach. Whether teaching this segment in China, South Korea or here in London @ymca.kx it is always my favourite segment. Warm Up 2, Lower Body – Hip, Knee, Ankle & Foot Such a great burn, especially after a few good repeats in preparation for teaching 🔥🔥🦵🏼🦵🏼🔥🤔🦵🏼🦵🏼 So good to have this as a go to, back to my roots of teaching exercise to music since 1987 😱😱… 34 years and counting 🤞🏼🤞🏼 . . . . . #60daysto60 #60days #60daysoffitness #60 ##stottpilates #stottpilatesinstructor #stottpilatesreformer #stottpilatesmatwork #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilateslondon #london #letsgo #letgo #52 #daystogo #52daystogo #totalbarre #barre #barreworkout #legs #burning #burninglegs #strong #bodyinsync #exercise #exercisetomusic #strength #tone (at YMCA at One KX) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR9ul4tDE9S/?utm_medium=tumblr

You don’t have to ask me twice when it comes to extension, something I love to do. With my military posture (literally after 12 years in the South African Navy), I should focus on flexion, but this is what I like 😬😬 Double Leg Kick is really challenging, avoid Pelvis tilting forward, main connection with TvA, Obliques, Rectus Abdominus and Hip Extensor (just to through something fancy words in 🤣😂) A little excerpt from this evenings Intermediate Matwork on ZOOM. . . . . . #60daysto60 #60days #60daysoffitness #60 ##stottpilates #stottpilatesinstructor #stottpilatesreformer #stottpilatesmatwork #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilateslondon #london #letsgo #letgo #53 #daystogo #54daystogo #double #leg #kick #doublelegkick #glutes #abdominals #spine #extension #stability #happy #mat #matwork (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR4urg4qpsn/?utm_medium=tumblr

A simple and understated exercise Double Leg Stretch, made just a little more challenging with the Fitness Circle between the ankles. Nothing like a little additional challenge to the adductors. The trick is to maintain flexed as you move your arms and legs away form the Center, a good core challenge as you move the periphery (fancy 🤔) . . . . . #60daysto60 #60days #60daysoffitness #60 ##stottpilates #stottpilatesinstructor #stottpilatesreformer #stottpilatesmatwork #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilateslondon #london #letsgo #letgo #55 #daystogo #55daystogo #core #challenge #fitness #circle #fitnesscircle #double #leg #stretch #doublelegstretch #athome #athomeworkouts #athomeworkout (at Greenwich West, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRzQhB7K-tL/?utm_medium=tumblr

I really need to articulate my spine, especially after all this sitting around in lockdown. I��ve never sat around so much in my life, I’m used to “moving, moving…”, now you’ll be thinking of that song 🤣😂 When I first learned this exercise in 1996, before I started my #stottpilates training, I learned it as “ Short Spine Massage”. To me, this is no massage. Now warming up to Short Spine, a little Lift and Lower to set the tone, followed by a quick change in sequencing👀😱 #reverse #direction . . . . . #60daysto60 #60days #60daysoffitness #60 ##stottpilates #stottpilatesinstructor #stottpilatesreformer #stottpilatesmatwork #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilateslondon #london #letsgo #letgo #56 #daystogo #56daystogo #shortspine #massage #lift #lower @ymca.kx #ymcaonekx #onekx (at YMCA at One KX) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRwiF2Dq8oR/?utm_medium=tumblr

So many favourites to choose from….🤔🤔 Snake today…flexion, articulation, extension and for now trying to limit rotation. Quite a sense of accomplishment after 😬☺️ . . . . . #60daysto60 #60days #60daysoffitness #60 ##stottpilates #stottpilatesinstructor #stottpilatesreformer #snake #stottpilatesmatwork #pilates #pilatesinstructor #pilateslondon #london #letsgo #letgo #56 #daystogo #56daystogo (at YMCA at One KX) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRubDNJKHsO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Some of the “highlights” of 2020. . . Taking the time to enjoy the nature around us - the cormorant catching a fish and the seagull jumping in for a share. - looking forward to spending more time with friends and family. - joining in on teaching on line and completing workshops #zoom #stottspilates @merrithew - enjoying the rare sight of a Black Swan on the Thames and enjoying the boats going by 👀 - reflecting on the 30 days I spent @esalen completing 200 hour Massage Therapy training. - reflecting on being part of the journey of future #stottspilates #stottpilatesmatwork #stottpilatesreformer #stottpilatesinstructor @merrithew @ymca.fit #onekx - enjoying the Heron, enjoying one of its local haunts, if not on the #thames #thamesriver then it might be #twinklepark. As many have already started enjoying the start to the New Year, I wanted to reach out and thank EVERYONE!! . for your continued support, joining in on ZOOM and making teaching such an absolute privilege and keeping the learning experience fun. . looking forward to sharing the journey with many more students in 2021, here in the UK 🇬🇧, in South Korea 🇰🇷 and hopefully in China 🇨🇳 . . . No matter where we find ourselves, striving for knowledge, looking to be there for others and be the BEST that we can be, couldn’t ask for much more 🤗🙏🥂🎉🍾🥳 2021🤗 (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJd2woFFQ7Y/?igshid=1psy5ykjdc43j
