This image shows an Autumnal background & Chantelle with a big grin on her face throwing leaves toward the camera.

Do you ever stop and wonder “how the hell did I end up here?”

I am now a full-time Holistic Coach and Movement Facilitator. It isn’t my side hustle anymore, it is my full-time gig. Sometimes I giggle at the curiosity of life and how I have ended up living in Berlin and building my own business.

Mindful Movement

today’s body: a concept I refer to a lot in my classes.

Mindful movement encourages movers to think about their needs in the present moment. Different from yesterday’s body and different from tomorrow’s body.

today’s body refers to the whole human experience in this flesh suit of ours. I believe all of our intricate systems are inextricably woven. today’s body includes the mind, it is all encompassing.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

The image by @barrehumbug shows three women of different shapes and colours with the words ‘every body of every size, shape, colour, gender and ability deserves to be treated with compassion, respect and dignity. As a community, we need to fight the social and political systems of oppression that label certain bodies as more worthy and desirable than others’.

I used to think being a Pilates instructor was all just making shapes and having fun (and maybe it is for some). However, I started seeing my role in these people’s lives as something much more than that. As Movement Facilitators have a certain responsibility to our clients.

This is my philosophy of movement. The things that guide me in this space and how I ensure that I provide the most supportive environment for my clients. I share my experiences of wading through the depths of diet culture and the toxic fitness industry.
