Well, it’s FINALLY the end of January! Is it just me or did that take FOREVER?!
Jump to the exciting workshop I’m teaching IRL in two weeks here!
Maybe it flew by for you! If that’s the case, I’m happy for you, it did NOT fly by for me.
And I don’t really know why. Is that just...the thing about January? Or is it the energetic hangover after the holidays? Time is supposed to fly when you’re having fun, right? And I had a lot of fun in January!
Yes, there were snow days and delayed school openings which left me…annoyed. But there was so much magic. I went to dance class every week, I tried other classes in the area, I’ve started to emerge from the vortex and create something here in Essex County, NJ.
Because we moved here over a year ago! Ah! How did that happen?! Do I really not live in Brooklyn anymore?! I don’t.
I said to Jeremy recently that I was expecting to be rebuilding my life during this postpartum period (I say postpartum period to mean the first year) and I realized something that really slapped across the face. I don’t feel like I’m rebuilding because I left my life back in Brooklyn. If I were rebuilding I’d have the pieces to put back together. But I don't have the pieces. I have to find and create the pieces to put together. I’m building.
Which is really hard.
And really exciting.
Because I have this incredible opportunity to build something really special. To be more than intentional, to be intelligent about which pieces I curate, how I arrange them, and what I build with them. I felt this same way after my divorce, FILLED WITH POTENTIAL! ← Just like you ;) And look where that got me?! To my dream life! So…I can’t wait to see what life is like on the other side of this construction project!
Which is why I am SO excited to share that I’m teaching a workshop IN REAL LIFE! Like we can be together IN THE SAME ROOM! We can learn, move and talk to each other for realsies!
AND the space for the event is…gorgeous.
Join me Thursday, February 15th 7-9pm for…
PILATES FOR YOUR PRIVATES: HOW THE PELVIC FLOOR UNLOCKS YOUR CORE
@ Loop!
80 Maple Ave, Montclair, NJ, 07042
SIGN UP HERE TO UNLOCK YOUR CORE VIA THE PELVIC FLOOR! ← It rhymes!
In this workshop, you will learn…
Basic anatomy of the pelvis and pelvic floor -- but in a fun way!
How the muscles of the pelvic floor behave and respond to exercise, intercourse, birth/postpartum, menopause, injury, trauma, and more!
How to integrate this fundamental hammock of muscles into your movement practices -- we will be using the Pilates method, but you can use this knowledge in ALL of your moves!
Why harnessing the hidden powerhouse between your legs is the keystone to stronger muscles, better sex, and confident sneezes -- you're welcome ;)
How you will learn all of this…
Talking the talk | A presentation explaining the anatomy you need to know to understand how the pelvis and pelvic floor function and how they relate to the rest of your body
Walking the walk | A 60-minute full body workout both isolating and integrating the pelvic floor into the Pilates mat work
Your Q, My A | The pelvic floor is as complex, nuanced, and intelligent as you are! So there will be time for you to get your questions answered, review and clarify, and integrate what you learn conceptually with what we experience physically.
Participants will also receive a workbook to support what we cover in the workshop and bring these lessons home with you and into your next workout and movement practice.
SIGN UP FOR THE WORKSHOP HERE!
I can’t wait to see you on the mat! IN PERSON!
As always, I've got your back. I’ve got your front. And I’ve got your undercarriage.
Xo, Alissa
