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
