Inspired By Pilates

I have been a massage therapist for over 25 years. I then went through to do my sports Massage and injury management certificate in 1995.
It all started in 1994 when i left school and i studied a certificate in Therapeutic Massage, the course only went for 16 weeks. After i finished my study i found work in a Massage Clinic in the City, this was a huge eye opener for me, as i had never worked with such different personalities. It was great though as i gained so much valuable experience. i worked at Brisbane Massage Therapy Center fo
I'm so proud of myself — I ran 4km today! 🙌🏽🏃♀️
Running wasn't even part of the plan.
I was going to start with a walk to warm up, then do some strength training. But as I started walking, I suddenly got this burst of energy and decided to run… and I just kept going! 😄
I used to love running, but after a few niggling knee and hip issues, I eventually stopped. Over the years, weight training, bootcamps, HIIT, Pilates, stretching and mobility have become my preferred ways to train.
But today, I felt good. Really good. So maybe running might make its way back into my weekly training routine… although we'll see how I pull up tomorrow! 😂
For today, though, I'm just going to enjoy the achievement and be proud of myself. ❤️
Sometimes it's nice to surprise yourself and realise your body can still do things you thought you'd left behind. 🙌🏽✨
Haha!
Accidents do happen, the first time I attempted a teaser on the reformer I nearly fell off 😂
Thankfully for me, in the 11 years of teaching Mat pilates I've only ever had a couple of b***y bands snap and one pilates circles break while teaching 😅
And in reformer one person recently fell forward into the well of the reformer, then continued laughing at herself throughout the class and now jokes about it every time she comes to class 😂
If you fall, you just pick yourself up and keep going 💯 💪🏽

Life is a busy juggle of early mornings, late nights and everything in between. ❤️
I currently instruct 15 Pilates classes a week, along with two private clients and massage clients that I treat from time to time.
My days often start early, include split shifts, and have me on my feet for most of the day — all while being a mum to my beautiful special-needs boy.
It’s actually interesting to see just how many steps I clock up on a full day of work! 👣
And then there’s my “day off”… 😂
Shopping, cleaning, laundry, running errands, appointments for my son, making time for family and friends, and trying to squeeze in a little time for myself.
Sometimes, simply stopping and resting feels like the hardest thing to fit into the schedule.
I love what I do, and I’m grateful for my work, my family and the people around me. But finding that balance between giving to everyone else and remembering to look after yourself can be tricky.
So today, I’m reminding myself that rest isn’t being lazy. It’s part of the juggle too. ❤️
One day, one class, one step at a time. 👣✨

Prenatal Pilates provides safe, low-impact conditioning designed to build deep core strength, support joint stability and strengthen the pelvic floor. It can help relieve lower back discomfort, improve posture as your centre of gravity changes, and teach mindful breathing techniques that can be beneficial during labour while also helping to reduce stress and promote relaxation.

love my challenging weekly pilates sessions with Lisa Boyd.
She always works hard, takes on the challenge and gives 💯.
I've been training Lisa Boyd since June 2023, Lisa has been consistent with her weekly sessions every since. I've trained her before she fell pregnant with her second child, the pre and postnatally.
Lisa always challenges herself in her Mat Pilates workouts, she works hard puts in 💯.
Love you Lisa ❤️
I love teaching, inspiring others and seeing strength and progression in people.
Watching a person go from
"i can't do that" ... to "Wow! I did it"
Is the best feeling for an instructor and especially for the person achieving 🥰
