24.01.2022 M O N D A Y 21/09 ready to start this week and keep walking my journey. Planning to take few days off this from Wednesday so it is going to be a SHORT one !!! Taking a break from your routine is an important piece of your wellness habits. I know this year have been a hard one for taking breaks. Somehow we took a LONG one with the lockdown but to be honest that wasnt a relaxing break? Do you agree? ... #pilatesbreak #pilatesjourney #kokoafitpilatesstudio #wellnesslifestyle

24.01.2022 If you want to have a good glutes workout you have to try sound sidekick in the Spine Corrector. The equipment will assist you with Peliv Stability so the glutes will be ready for the workout. This is one is one of my favourites exercises to fire up and strength your lower body while your upper body is just having a break ! Great exercise for beginners !!! ... Have you tried it yet? is there any other exercise that you like to strength your glutes? would love to know about it #kokoafitpilates #glutespilates #pilatesbrisbane #pilatesgraceville #pilateschelmer #pilatessherwood

22.01.2022 Back in 2008... Little did I know then that my passion would become my "WHY" now. They took this picture when I only had two kids, I used to have three Pilates sessions per week so I could stay strong and flexible while chasing my two very active little boys! Pilates was my fountain of energy back then and still is now 12 years later. ... In the future, I think I will be that petite old lady dragging myself to Pilates. Thanks Joe P. for creating this amazing system of exercises that keeps your body young forever! If Pilates is part of your youth medicine, say YESSS in the comments! #pilatesmum #pilatesbusiness #pilatesstudio #pilatesinstructor #pilatesbrisbane

22.01.2022 Sometimes we need some help to do things that could be scary or unachievable !! Not always we have our hips higher than our and the truth is that it feels so good. My lovely Spine Corrector is always there to help. It gives me support for my back and freedom for my legs to move ... Please remember that asking for help is OK no matter if it is inside the Pilates Studio or in your daily life routine. We are in this life together to support and empower each other. xx Maria #kokoafitpilates #alwayslearning #askforhelp #youarenotalone #pilatesgraceville #pilateschelmer #pilatesindooroopilly

22.01.2022 Having trouble with your seat ups ? In Pilates world we call them chest lift or spine flexion and when someone has very dominant neck muscles we teach them how to activate their upper abdominals to create the lift from there and NOT from their neck !!! Using props or some equipment can help you to find the connection with those muscles not so easy to activate !!... Say Bye to sore neck and HELLO to abdominal muscles. Wants sone@more tips to turn off your neck muscles? DM and will send you some other tips. #kokoafitpilatesstudio #gracevillepilates #chelmerpilates #sherwoodpilates #stopneckpain #pilatesworld

21.01.2022 who Knew? Early March this year I did this amazing trip to Cambodia, exploring new places to do my Pilates retreat in 2020. While there the world turned unexpectedly and I had to come back to quarantine away of my children ... uncertainty - anger - fear - hopeless - frustration were some of the feelings for those first weeks after I came back .... But ... Who knew that after all what have happened this year I was going to change? I am able to see things from a different angle now and I opened my self to different possibilities. I am not launching a Pilates Retreat (unfortunately) but I am launching an amazing Online Program for fitness instructors who wants to run their business from home. I am so grateful for this . I feel I can help more people this way. More mums that are busting to start their own InHome Business but don’t know how to do it. What about you? Have COVID changed your life as well? Have you explore new possibilities? Can’ wait to hear them #lifechangingyear #onlineprogramguru #homefitnessstudio #homepilatesstudio #businessgirlmagic

21.01.2022 Being still - quite - in pause is super important. I know many of us are afraid of silence and stillness but you dont have to ... Being with yourself is the most powerful act you can do during your day. listen to yourself, Breath with yourself , check in with yourself. you have your best friend very close and maybe you are not aware of it. ... It doesnt have to take LONG hours of silence but start practicing talking to your self in mute or out loud ( no judgments ) . Join me tomorrow morning in my weekly live through here to talk about stillness #pilateswellbeing #pilateslifestyle #bebravebeyourself #lovewhatyoudo

21.01.2022 Exercise and nutrition are one of the only things we can control to keep our immune system high. Dont over estimate your body ... it is a great machine able to win any battle with this nasty

21.01.2022 Knowing who you are is one of the fundamentals when creating your business and there are several ways to get to know yourself! Start looking at your own personal values. Start creating your concept of success.... Identify what drains your energy. I built my business following this path and I couldn't be more proud of it and I'm very satisfied with the results. My online program helps fitness instructors build a successful InHome Studio that resonates with who they are. Thinking about opening your own Inhome Studio or taking the one you already have to the next level? DM me if you want to know more about this. Would love to share with you the beauties of this program! With love, Maria xx #onlinebusinessprogram #momentrepreneurs #profitablestudio #profitablehomestudio #pilatescoach #pilatesbusiness #pilatesbusinesscoach

21.01.2022 I think everyone should remember that we constantly work until our goals are achieved.

19.01.2022 Feeling that FEELING? Overwhelmed? Frustrated? Yes, I get you. I have been there myself. You feel that no matter how many hours you teach during the day, it is never enough to make the income you need to create the lifestyle you want. Teaching thousands of hours is not necessary. It's finding out the smarter way to run your Home Studio and feel successful and FREE. I get it because it’s exactly what my clients say when they first come to me. So if you’re anything like them a...nd can relate, can I be REAL with you? Teaching 10,000 clients is not going to take you where you want to be. You will only end up feeling overwhelmed and super tired. However, if you create your dream schedule with intention and place YOURSELF as a priority, things can flow in a very different way. You will become a magnet to your dream clients, will work only during the hours you want to teach and your lifestyle will significantly improve. Send me a message, I know exactly how to help you get create your dream schedule that will make you work smarter, not harder.

17.01.2022 Magic Circle in action again ! This time it is helping me to control my head - neck and shoulder organisation while I work on my thoracic spine rotation if you want to practice some rotation at home, grab a ball or small basket and place it close to your ribs.

16.01.2022 What does the word Fitness mean to you? Sweat - small tights - crops - weights - running - cool shoes - treadmill - mat - Yoga - Pilates - Barre - Boxing - Personal Training - dancing - walking - health - green food - smoothies !!! I can go on and on BUT I want to let you know that all of the above plus more is Fitness. Being fit doesn’t mean being slim and with muscles definition on your body.... It is an estate of being physically capable of accomplishing everything you want in your life that requires movement. Let’s start reevaluating what we are doing to keep our body moving and capable of taking us anywhere we want. MOVE and NOURISH your body as it is the only one we have !!! #Fitnessbusiness #fitnessismybusiness #businessfitness #fitnessisourbusiness #fitnessandbusiness #businessbrandfitness #fitnessbusinessowner #fitnessbusinessmarketing #fitnessbusinessmentor #fitnessbusinesscoach #fitnessbusinesscoaching #fitnesscoach #businessconsultant #personaltraining #onlinecoach #personaltrainer #fitnessinstructor #grouptraining #growyourbusiness #fitnessmotivation #fitnessinfluencer #lifestylecoach #businesscoaches #fitnessphysique #fitpreneur #personaldevelopment #fitnessprofessional #fitnesscommunity #brisbanefitness

16.01.2022 3 mistakes not to make when opening your pilates studio from home When I was dreaming about opening a Pilates Studio I thought it was just a matter of finishing my Teacher training, finding a home with a great space and buying the equipment !!! I did finish my teacher training , I bought a house with an extra room perfect for the pilates Studio and I got the equipment. ... I opened my space BUT it took me years to have a profitable Pilates studio as I have today. I don’t want you to go through the same nightmare and looong days I went through so make sure you don’t : 1. Wait seating on the reformer for the clients to come . Have an specific marketing strategy for your studio. 2. Don’t think about your studio as a side hustle or hobby just because it is in your House. Start managing it as a teal business. 3. SayYES to everyone who ask for a class. Think about who will benefit from your teaching style. Who you would love to be teaching. If you want to know more about how to run a profitable home studio, just click the link in my bio to join my amazing Facebook community and know more about how I can support you in this area Xx Maria #Hombiz #homebiztips #homebizsuccess #homebizmum #homebussines #pilatesstudio #pilateshomestudio #pilateshomestudioowners #personaltrainerbrisbane #personaltrainersydney #personaltrainermelbourne #personaltraineraustralia #pilatesbrisbane #athomepilates #wellnesscoach #brisbanetrainer #pilatesbusinesscoach

15.01.2022 This week is my birthday !!!

I started the week Sending the login details for my Wellness InHomeBiz Online program for the very first time I have few things in my mind but would love to hear how you celebrate your birthday. Are you a party people or do you prefer to keep it quite? I would love to hear from you Xx Maria #pilatesinstructor #pilateslife #entreprenourgirl #onlineprogramcreator #inhomefitnessexpert

15.01.2022 How long ago have you put your feet up? Have you ever put your legs up against the wall? This exercise is great for blood circulations and will definitely help if you have been seated or have been standing up for too long. Stop feeling heavy and having tired legs. You can find a wall to put your feet up or just ask your amazing Pilates Instructor to teach you this exercise during your Pilates Class! ... Say YES if you want more tips like this to improve your body movement!

14.01.2022 Guess which muscles I am working the most here? The muscles of My Feet . They are working % not to let the bar go. PARAKEET is an advance exercise and I have been working so hard to be able to do it by myself with no one spotting the bar !!! This weekend I got encouraged by a beautiful group of students from @polestarpilatesau while I was mentoring and @soozie_cottrell_pilates helped me and gave me some beautiful cues that helped me to connect more. ... Voila !!! Here it is no one spotting the bar and only me at the studio. The lesson for today is never say never and always be willing to learn from others. Open heart and open Mind can take you very very far. What is THE thing you have been trying and trying and you still dont get it yet? Share with me :) Cant wait to hear from you?

They strengthen your back muscles, improve your posture, avoid the humpback shape and make you feel strong! So this 2021 this is my goal... More extension exercises for me and my beautiful clients!

12.01.2022 Hi guys ... I just did a live on Instagram about stillness - what it is and how easy you can get into it Follow me on @Kokoafit_pilates and lets talk about this

10.01.2022 Energizing morning walks are a MUST for me to clear my mind and think about new ideas. They are necessary for me to feel that my business aligns with my values and lifestyle. I schedule them on my DREAM schedule and they happen no matter what. ... Do you have a dream schedule? One of those where you are the protagonist?

09.01.2022 SELF CARE... Sometimes we think that selfcare is only established by a good routine to a nice spa and even though it sounds like a fabulous idea is not totally true. Self care is much more than taking one hour away to go for a nice massage. The problem is that if we don't have all the rest of our life in order then that hour will disappear in 5 min as soon as we step into our life again. ... Here are a few tips for self care that don't cost you $$$. 1. Intentionally breathe deeply early in the morning, after lunch and before going to bed. Spend at least 5 min connecting with your breath. 2. Read a good book that inspires you (10 to 15 min a day is enough to get you through the book faster than what you think). 3. Daily exercise ( walk - dance - do Pilates - HIIT) all kinds of movements is good for your soul. 4. Schedule your sleeping time. Let your mind organise your sleeping time. Don't let the body decide when it is tired. 5. You are what you eat. Make sure you are eating food that supports your busy days. If you create a conscious selfcare routine for your week, your body and mind will remain on a state of flow. That is what we want to be in... a state that our days and hours are so enjoyable that they smoothly pass by.

09.01.2022 HAPPY FRIDAY Did you know that stretching our body is as efficient as a good 50 min intense work out for our wellbeing ? Muscles need some good workout with weight and cardio movement but also they need to stretch. They need to find their length and space in your body. ... I always start my classes with stretches to make the muscles length and find some HOT spots in your body. Then we do a good Pilates work out to end the hour with some Happy FEET moves. Clients walk away with a big smile and I fee content with the job they have done in their body. Don’t underestimate your stretches and give your body some DM if you want to know exactly how stretch or how long to do it for. With love, Maria

09.01.2022 I feel like I really want to share this with you... We need PARTNERS in our lives. Yes! I meant partners in crime. Those who will support you, help you move forward and let you know when things DON'T look the way it should be. We always need THAT person in our lives, businesses, fun activities... Life is easier when we have someone to hold our hands.... He is my rock, my guinea pig body during my teacher training years ago, my financial partner when I decided to open my business. My best friend who has been sharing his journey with me since 1996. It is Monday, the perfect day to look around you and recognize who's always there by your side. At certain times of our lives, we need coaches that push us out of our comfort zone and make us grow as person and business owners. Comment a YES if you know you have the right partner in your life! #pilatesbusiness #pilatesbrisbane #brisbanepilatesteacher #brisbanepilatesstudio #brisbanepilatesinstructor #partnerappreciation

07.01.2022 The power of NOW Thinking of my present instead of what it WAS or what it will BE really help me to stay positive and focus on the things that really matters to... me. If you feel: Negativity Guilt Resentment Anger You are living on the past ... thanking about past situations that are not taking you anywhere. If you feel: Unease Stress Tension Worry You are living in the future, basing your reality on things that havent happened yet. Dont waste time and energy feeding those feelings ... Stop and Breath. Think about your present: where you are & what you have . Keep your mind focus on you and dont let anything change your reality. The most wonderful thing is that we can CONTROL what we think and how we feel. What are you waiting for? Enjoy your NOW

On the other hand, a person who is stressed looks as if they are carrying a massive weight over their shoulders and their body which looks uncomfortable and painful. ...

05.01.2022 Experiencing GROWTH it is just incredible ! Few years ago, I knew I had something else to offer to the world than just being a Housewives and a MUM and please Don’t get me wrong I love my family deeply BUT have you ever had the feeling that you are missing something ? Well, after feeling that way for a while, I decided to dive into my Pilates teacher training in 2012 to start sharing my LOVE for movement with others.... I have been doing that for 7 years now and it is definitively one os my passion. The feeling to keep growing showed up again last year. So I decided to open myself to new possibilities I keep teaching movement but today I am also helping female entrepreneurs in the fitness area to run their home business like a PRO. I am helping them to to make it profitable and more important to improve their quality of life having a fulfilling job around their personal values. This amazing formula equals MORE to spend with their loved ones and MORE to enjoy their time together. If you wonder how do I do this, I do this through my digital course supported by business mentoring sessions If you are interested in knowing more about this project Check link in my Bio and let me know if there is something I can support you with ;)

02.01.2022 When practicing Pilates you can use different Props ! Lets talk Magic today :) The Maigic Circle is a Love/ Hate prop it assists you with many movements but is can also challenge you in other exercises. My favourite way to use it while teaching is to assist with the movement so people can find their connections and fall in LOVE with it ... then I will introduce it to challenge some muscles. At this point people already love it ... Have you tried before? Do you Love it ir Hate it? #pilatesprops #pilateslovers #pilatesinstructor #pilatesbrisbanewest #pilatesgraceville #pilateschemer @ KokoaFit Pilates Studio

02.01.2022 Monday reminder ... be grateful for who you are and the magic box you live in (your body). Teaching Pilates to amazing human beings have made me realised how poorly we think about our body. We are constantly criticising it. We are not looking deep enough beyond our esthetical appearance. We take everything for granted ! ... Today I want to invite you to be kind and gentle with your body. To listen closely to what it has to say. To dedicate more time to take care of it and not looking at its imperfections. NOBODY is perfect so stop comparing your body or creating a false idea of it. BE happy, celebrate everyday how beautiful it is and how good it works. Breath - Move - Repeat with Love, Maria See more
