Pyramid Pose Yoga Flow – 60 minute yoga class for beginners

//  by 

As we headed into the lock down in March, the gyms and yoga studio closed and I shifted my focus online. This free 60 minute Pyramid Pose Yoga flow class is the last thing I filmed in my 'old' yoga room. It's being remodeled (DIY project), so this class feels a little bitter sweet. A surrender into a new phase in my life, on so many levels. Because we're remodeling the room ourselves this video edit took a while. I edited the first half, then got deep into painting and sanding before …

15-Minute Mat Pilates Workout for Beginners

//  by 

While HIIT is a great way to increase fitness, one question I get asked a lot, in person and in the blog comments, is "what to do if you're a beginner"?

Or maybe you're working around an injury, there are workouts you can continue to do in order to y fit. I suggest something less intense, like this 15 minute Mat Pilates Workout!

So this week's workout includes cardio, strength, upper body, lower body and core! The full video is …

It's a slow-ish day with just one fitness class to teach, I still have training clients, but I'm more kicking other people's butts rather than my own. Anyways kicking butt is what I do. I keep threatening to get a t-shirt that says "professional butt kicker"... I really should do that. So …
