UNWIND

An autumn morning for your spine, breath & body

Sunday 11th October | 9am–12pm | £49

We all have those places where tension seems to gather…

The shoulders that always feel tight. A stiff upper back. Hips that could do with a little more space. Feet that have carried us around all day without much thought.

On Sunday 11 October,  we’ll UNWIND and give those areas some proper attention.  

I’ve created a whole morning to explore ways of releasing some of the tension we accumulate in our bodies, with a particular focus on myofascial release using small balls.

Fascia is the connective tissue that surrounds and connects structures throughout the body. Using the pressure and support of the balls, we can explore areas that feel tight or restricted, encouraging a little more ease before we move.

We’ll work our way through the body, giving particular attention to the spine and ribcage, combining myofascial release with breath and gentle movement.

Rather than squeezing this release work into a few minutes at the beginning or end of a class, we’ll have time to really explore it.

We might spend longer around the feet and hips, work into the shoulders and upper back, or use the balls and props to encourage more movement through the spine and ribcage.

And then we’ll move into a flowing Pilates practice, with the opportunity to notice how familiar movements feel after the fascia release work. What moves a little more freely? What feels easier? What has changed?

We’ll pause for tea and something delicious along the way - a proper Sunday morning breather.

And with autumn arriving, it feels like a good time to have a few useful techniques up your sleeve for home, so you’ll leave with simple ways to use release balls any time you need to unwind tension.

Come and spend the morning with me.
