HEAL, TONE & STRENGTHEN YOUR PELVIC FLOOR
Let’s talk PELVIC FLOOR!
I know, boring right?
But did you know that exercises that specifically target your pelvic floor also activates the parts of a woman’s brain that boosts your SELF CONFIDENCE, CREATIVITY, ASSERTIVENESS, and FEEL-GOOD HORMONES?
If you think pelvic floor exercises are limited to boring Kegels, I’m here to show you different!
This 5-week beginner course will change the way you feel about your pelvic floor.
You’ll learn juicy tidbits that will have you realising why prioritising this part of your body shouldn’t be a chore but something to look forward to, because afterward you feel more relaxed, energised and connected to your self.
An estimated 60% of Australian women experience some form of pelvic floor issue, and it sucks that Western culture fails to recognises the vital role these muscles play. Instead, it’s normalised that women should expect issues like bladder leakage or prolapse or sexual pain as part of being a woman – especially after giving birth.
And if you’ve experienced pelvic floor issues, you’ll probably agree how little support there is out there for healing. Even most yoga and pilates classes, which have so much to offer for core strength, rarely include modifications specific to supporting and addressing the unique design of the female pelvic floor.
Yet in Taoist practices this group of muscles is known as the ‘seat of your power’, source of your vitality and life force, and intimately connected to your creativity, confidence and personal power.
Your pelvic floor represents your foundation – holding everything in place. This isn’t just about having a physical sense of inner stability and strength, but also knowing who you are, feeling safe & supported by life, and the ability to set healthy boundaries.
Yep, your pelvic floor is well worth your attention!
