Welcome!
I am so glad you decided to partake in my Pelvic-Core Restore Basics Introduction Series.
Now I know you are excited to get started, but please be mindful of a few things:
1. The full program is 10 session long, and it is best when the student participates in each of the weekly classes 2-4 times per week. So to get the most out of this practice I recommend you join me on the mat 2-5 times this coming week!
2. Take it slow, I am constantly encouraging you to go back to a previous week if you are still feeling XYZ or to skip a move if you are feeling ABC, for most of us all our life we have been told to "run through the pain", "no pain, no gain", or "don't give up, keep going". Well I have news for you, those words of encouragement although may have good intentions, may cause more pain and discomfort. Please carefully follow my instructions in each video.
3. It's about using the right muscles NOT doing the poses/moves. Let go of the idea of "advanced", in my world there is no such thing! Instead consider if you are using the right muscles, feeling the correct areas and sensations, this is the most effective gauge you can have for exercise and life!
4. Your core is 360 degrees round. And that means that your core is your front, sides and BACK (and pelvic floor)! Yes your back is a part of your core, so when you put your body in the correct position you will feel the area you are the weakest and for some that may mean your back.
5. Note the difference between pain and discomfort. Pain is anything hot, shooting or sharp, anything that causes numbness or tingling. When you feel these warning signs STOP, your body is saying something isn't right. Discomfort can often be in our head, you don't like this move because it is challenging you more than you'd like to admit or are use to. Discomfort is feeling something you are not use to but is not causing any harm or pain (except for the ego maybe).
6. If you have not yet purchased a mini ball you'll want to do that right away here, as this entire series revolved around this key core product!
7. Have fun! Please have fun and stay committed to the last week, I promise if you do, you won't be disappointed.
From my heart to yours....Namaste!
