Did you know I created videos over the past years with quick tips to use your Pilates know hows to improve all other aspects of your living? Most of these tips are only 1-5 minute, very digestable, segments. I've recently joined up with another Pilates instructor in England to contribute writing posts and will be regularly writing and filming corresponding videos and posting them as part of the Pilates Daily segment. Stay connected and stay updated with these quick tips! See previous Quick Tip Pilates Minute video segments here

Inversions aren't just for gymnasts, yogis or the young. When I turned 40, I decided I wanted to join my kids and try to conquer handstands. While I have made some wonderful gains through many informative yogi tutorials, I began a #stretchandstand challenge on IG that utilizes Pilates exercises to improve alignment, strength and control in handstands.
