Movement for a Healthy Core
5 weeks to stronger, more supportive core
Ok, Real Talk.
How do you feel about your core?
I’m asking because I know that this is an area of your body you might love to hate.
You might feel totally disconnected from your core muscles. Maybe you feel like you can’t rely on them at all.
You hear the phrase “core work”in your yoga class and you internally groan at the thought of suffering through another, boring class full of sit-ups and boat pose. Maybe you are just tired of trying to
I want to help you change that.
I want to teach you how to love your core by actually enjoying the exercises that make you feel stronger, more connected to, and proud of your core.
You are in the right place if:
If you are consistent with these practices, in 5 weeks you will feel:
I did Week 1: Balance Core today and it revolutionized Warrior 3 for me. I’ve always had a hard time for it, and engaging the core in this way you instructed made it easier, more interesting, and more enjoyable for me. Whoa!
WHY DOES HAVING A STRONG, HEALTHY CORE MATTER?
(Hint: it’s not because everyone should have a “perfect” beach bod…)
Having a strong, healthy core matters because when you feel stronger in your center, you will feel more deeply connected to yourself, which naturally generates increased self-confidence regardless of size or shape.
An embodied self-confidence allows you to stand more fully in your truth, to stand up for the things you believe in, and empowers you to make an impact in the world.
I know that sounds intense but hey, connecting to your core is powerful stuff. Because when you feel amazing in your body, you ARE powerful.
Your Tools and Support for Your Core from Me
30 videos, all 10-12 minutes long. The videos are intentionally sequenced, building progressively from simpler actions into one that are more dynamic and complex.
Daily or weekly emails from me with your videos for the week (you get to choose how often you hear from me).
The emails will help keep you on track, plus you’ll receive evidence-based tips and support for committing to a daily or simply more consistent practice.
DIY version: a page with all of the videos so you can practice them whenever you want, in the order you want, as often as you want
1 special video, How-to Use Your Core More Effectively, to help familiarize yourself with the actions that will help you work more effectively with your core muscles.
This is such a great program. Exactly what I needed. Very doable to commit to 10-12 minutes a day. Exercises are varied which makes them fun. Thanks so much for putting this together.
AND HERE’S THE THING:
I know how busy you are. You want to be able to create change in your body but you don’t have a lot of time.
I get it. I’m a mom of 3.
I created these practices to be quick and efficient.
All of these videos are less than 15 minutes long.
You don’t need loads of time or fancy equipment or fancy yoga pants (although those can be fun).
Easy peasy downdog squeezey.
HOW MOVEMENT FOR A HEALTHY CORE WORKS:
I created 6 categories of core work: supine, standing, balancing, seated, forearm, and twists.
These cover the basics of core strength, stability, and mobility, while avoiding weight bearing on your hands and sit-ups of any kind.
Each week you’ll work on these 6 categories, one day and one practice at a time.
Over the course of the program, these practices increase in challenge.
You will do a brief warm up and cool down, but the majority of the time spent during these practices is focused on your core.
BONUS VIDEOS FOR ADDITIONAL CORE SUPPORT:
You’ll receive videos teaching you Breathing for Core Support, Neutral Pelvis, Tips for Core Work with Pelvic Floor Issues, and Tips for Core Work with Diastasis Recti.
These can be used in conjunction with the daily core videos to help you access your core muscles more powerfully.
Apropos of nothing, I’m obsessed with this core program. Best money I’ve ever spent. I love every single workout. (Except maybe the forearm day, if I’m honest because they are so HARD!)
AND ONE MORE THING:
While I encourage you to move your body daily, which is why I’ve created this as a 5-week, daily practice program, I also understand that sometimes that just might not be possible.
I will give you a weekly focus and daily tips helping you to integrate these practices into your everyday routines.
And also, if you need a break, missing a day and a practice, it’s no big deal. There’s another one coming at you the following day.
My husband recently got diagnosed with arthritis in his hip. When he went to the orthopedist among other things he wants him to work on his core. I had just signed up for the core program when I found this out. He has been doing some of them with me so some days I do it twice. Also he went to PT yesterday and the PT was very glad to hear he was doing yoga. He is not a Yogi by any stretch of the imagination so this is really pushing him out of his comfort zone. Thank you for making these amazing videos that can get both of us moving.
I have a few special BONUS gifts for you, too
If you sign up before April 24th, I’ll offer you 3 things to keep you busy until the program officially begins on May 1st:
6 of my favorite core-focused classes from my online archives, spread out every few days to get you moving
A selection of 3 meditations to help keep you cool and calm heading into summer break
I just finished the first week of videos and I already feel like I have much more energy. Doing them in the morning makes me want to move more throughout the day. The 10-15 minute classes are perfect for my life right now!.
Don’t just take it from me.
Read a little bit about what my students have to say.
These are a few peeps who’ve taken my classes and have had some powerful, positive experiences.
“Consistent yoga is achievable and so beneficial! During the program I noticed much less back pain and needed less chiropractic care! It was a great testament to a little daily work making a big difference overall!”
