Core-Focus movement sessions help you to feel younger and more easy in your body, whatever your baseline.
Christine combines Pilates’ core alignment principles with yoga’s mindfulness and awareness to create strengthening and lengthening sessions which also relax your mind.
The movement part of the sessions is intended to strengthen, rebalance, and reduce pain associated with poor movement patterns. The mindful aspect (somatics) can be as simple as being guided to pay attention to different aspects of yourself as you move, or through guided meditations, silent restfulness, pranayama (breath work), or Reiki healing, and is used to calm the mind and restore inner peace.
Moving mindfully, or somatically, works with your nervous system and permits a dialogue between mind and body, heightening your ability to move in a way your future self will thank you for. It can also give a voice to those parts of the body which keep going ‘wrong’ without apparent reason.
Another means of giving space to parts of you which keep hurting or niggling is through the use of psychotherapy; this can be through talking and/or utilising the body or the arts to discover what is within your unconscious. Which modalities are used depends on what you want to explore. Christine offers a trauma-informed stance that is at the heart of the work.
Focus on your core physically; exercise for strength, mobility and longevity. Focus your mind; enhance your potential and feel better about who you are. Focus your energy; pour yourself into what you choose rather than your circumstances.
Build your confidence and improve connections with yourself and others. Core-Focus sessions are about feeling great from the inside out, whether in a 1:1 Pilates, therapy, or personal wellness session; a public class; or a corporate group.
