3 things I wish I knew 20 years ago: 1️⃣ Not all workouts need to leave you dripping in sweat. Just because you didn’t hit the gym doesn’t mean you didn’t move! Running errands, being on your feet, and daily tasks all count as real-life exercise. 2️⃣ If a workout feels “easy,” it doesn’t mean it wasn’t effective. Your body needs variety—gentle classes are just as important as intense ones. They help reset, support recovery, and keep both your body and mind in balance. 3️⃣ Consistency is key. Every step you take toward mobility and strength is an investment your future self will thank you for. Keep going—you’re building something amazing! 💪✨ #pilates #lifelessons #pilateslife #pilatesinstructor

I don’t have a perfect body—just like you, I’ve got areas that need extra love and attention! Right now, my shoulder is the focus, and I’m working hard to keep it moving well. Keeping it real here—I’m sharing what I’ve been doing daily to make progress. Some days, I feel like I’m improving; other days, not so much. But I’m committed to practicing what I preach, so I’m sticking with it! 💪✨ Remember, progress isn’t always a straight line—it’s about showing up consistently. Let’s keep moving together! 🖤 #pilates #shoulders #shoulderworkout #shoulderday #pilatesbody

Comment ‘weights’ —> Pilates using light hand weights is effective to maintain muscle and tone up. 🙌 ✅ You don’t need heavy weights or a home gym full of equipment. Light hand weights will do the job (I use 3-4 pound) ✅ You don’t have to move fast or thrash about (I move slowly and still feel it the next day) ✅ You don’t need to go out to the gym and spend hours each week to see a difference. I can show you how to do these exercises at home. Join me for a class! Comment, ‘weights’ and I’ll DM you.

You’ve been so consistent with your Pilates practice, showing up for regular classes every week. But now, life got in the way, and you’ve fallen out of the routine. You’re worried about how to start again. Do these 3 things with me. ✨1. Start Small: Commit to just 10-15 minutes of Pilates. The hardest part is often getting started, but remember, consistency matters more than intensity when re-establishing a routine. ✨2. Set a Specific Time: Schedule in your Pilates Time like an appointment. Having a set routine can help you create momentum without the pressure of “finding time.” or mustering “motivation”. ✨3. Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge every effort, no matter how small. Completing even one session is a step forward—focus on progress, not perfection. Beth 💚
