25.01.2022 Have you tried doing a workout with a friend or college?! It can be lots of fun and really challenging at the same time!!!

24.01.2022 Josh adding some spring resistance to his rollover! We love this variation on the original rollover...it really help you keep the legs engaged and a sense of lift through the hips!

23.01.2022 Rotation of the spine is so important for the health of our bodies. Adding in rotation can help increase mobility in the spine, free up the breathing muscles and help increase your lung capacity. All great reasons to get rotating today!

22.01.2022 Lengthening the hips! Standing lunges are fantastic for opening the hips but also strengthening the muscles of the ankles, legs & hips. Sometimes you can feel a little off balance in these lunges. Which means its a great reminder to get back to practice some single leg balances to increase the strength and stability from the foot to the hip. TIP: A great one to do at home is balancing on a soft pillow for 1minute to challenge your balance! Have fun!

21.01.2022 Pilates offers countless positives and the exercises and equipment are purposely designed to create long, lean and toned muscles. No wonder we Pilates so much!!! What do you love about Pilates?!

20.01.2022 An outdoor workout can give you a great boost to get back into exercising regularly. Even better you can always do a Pilates mat workout outdoors

20.01.2022 Keeping the mind and body active with a Pilates mat workout this Saturday. Its also a great way to take some time out for yourself! Best of all it can be done anywhere! Happy Saturday

20.01.2022 Peparing for snake on the mat is just as important as the actual movement.It's where the foundations of the movement lie. So whether you are lounging on the couch this weekend or doing your pilates at home think about how you set your body up to move...you'll be surprised how much the feeling changes when your set up is on point!

19.01.2022 Today is a great day to change up your Pilates workout for the week and challenge yourself! Adding in a piece of equipment or doing a few extra reps of each exercise can really challenge your mind and body. And best of all youll feel amazing for doing it and challenging yourself!!!

17.01.2022 This position can be very common for people to roll into and only think about getting there feet to the floor. By doing this you are more likely to compress the spine and loose your ab and hip connection. Think of keeping a lifted waist and engage the legs and you will feel a big difference through the spine! We only have one spine so make sure you look after it!

16.01.2022 A bit of fun on the cadillac stretching out!!!

16.01.2022 One of the most challenging exercises on the Wunda Chair...the side pike or pull up on one leg. Talk about a full body workout!!

16.01.2022 we love so many things about summer!!! especially that we get to eat fruity treats like these

15.01.2022 Our Pilates studio is full of action this morning with semi privates and private Pilates sessions happening and not to forget our lead Pilates instructor @pilates_sara being back in the studio today with even more great Pilates knowledge to share with the @kimovement team and clients! So This smoothie bowl is definitely what we need to get us through today! What healthy snacks to you choose to get through a busy day!? c: @choosingchia

15.01.2022 Lateral(side body) work is so important for the body, thats why all our sessions at KMP involve a full body workout. Aiming to exercise every joint and Range of Movement so you leave feeling like you have a whole new body:))

14.01.2022 Hydration Station!!! Water has so many amazing benefits so why not try your water today with a twist like these! Which one would you pick?!

13.01.2022 As Joseph Pilates said...Change happens through movement and movement heals.

13.01.2022 Realigning, rebalancing and letting go! It's amazing how much our day to day environment affects our posture without even realizing it. Repetitive actions through the week or long periods in the one position can have negative affects on your overall alignment. It's so important to work on balancing this out no matter how young or old you are:)

06.01.2022 Theres something very organic not using any equipment and just feeling at one with your mind, body and the mat. Theres nowhere to hide when its just you and the mat, making it a great way to get back in tune with your body! Happy humpday everyone!!!

06.01.2022 The snake on the mat has such a great spiral through the spine as you move through the exercise. The more length you gain and the less you sink into the hips the better this exercise will feel and the more strength you will gain in your end range of movement.

05.01.2022 The start and finish of the boomerang! Like a boomerang you come back to where you started

05.01.2022 A little mid week Teaser for you...A teaser a day will keep your Pilates Teacher happy!! HaHa! Pretty sure we just made that Im up but were sure all you Pilates teacher will agree!

05.01.2022 At Ki Movement everyone is welcome in the studio even his cute little pooch who visits us three times a week! Ange and Pascha are looking so cute doing their Pilates together! We you both! Xx

04.01.2022 Side support on the mat has some amazing benefits that we could all use in our life! 1 strengthens the shoulder girdle 2 Tones and strengthens the obliques 3 it forces you to connect from the outer edge of the foot to the glute Med 4 if you lower the hips in between each rep it works on building strength in a lengthened position! All great reasons to make sure you work both sides of your body this weekend!!

03.01.2022 Using the bands to do Arm work is a really affective way of gaining strength through the shoulder girdle and arms. This tricep press is a great one to do at home! Heres how: 1 either sit up or stand upright and make sure the head is lifted in line with spine. 2 anchor band with one arm down near your tail bone 3 grab remainder of band with other hand and float behind the head (make sure you have a bit of tension on band) 4extend top arm to straighten-think of engaging the tricep to press the arm to straighten and then resist to bend the arm back to the start. TIPS: adjust the tension of the band as you need and make sure your bottom hand stays anchored. ENJOY!

01.01.2022 Front support is a great way to build full body strength and really feel that heat in the abdominals. However if your alignment is incorrect the front support (more commonly known as the Plank ) can have the reverse affect and do more harm to your body than good It is very easy to sink into the lower back and grip into the hip flexors in this position. This will only make your lower back and hips tighter and it will poorly train the abdominals. keeping your mind as active as your body in the Plank will help to keep you focused on maintaining length in your spine and a strong sense of zipping the abs up and away from the ground! Breathe and focus through your planks for the week!

01.01.2022 Lengthening and strengthening all in one! The shoulder bridge is a great way to strengthen the hip extensors and lengthen the hip flexors. A great progression from the standard pelvic curl or bridge.
