Body Mechanics

This beautiful firecracker 🧨 just landed in Portland from Seattle, and we are elated that she is calling bodymechanics her Pilates home. She has an enthusiasm that is contagious, and she brings with her ten years of teaching experience.

Her first class is All Levels Mixed Equipment this Friday at 10:30 am.

✨Welcome to Portland, Morgan!! We’re so glad you’re here!! ✨

This Saturday from 1 to 4 at the studio, you are invited… to a place that is gentle and free, wild and playful. A place where the unending currents of abundance, creativity, and restoration are bubbling, within the supportive bowl of the pelvis.

In this three hour workshop we will engage with the embodied anatomy of the pelvis. You will be guided through meditation, movement, and creative practice. We will create a container that invites healing, mystery and play. It will encourage you to claim the incredible currents that flow through the energetic and physical anatomy of your pelvis.

This workshop series is designed to inform, but more importantly to allow for experiential learning. This class is designed for anyone born with a uterus.

bodymechanics is the studio where ALL dogs can learn new tricks 🐾💕

Two days ago I finished this mandala on the wall of the studio. I began painting it back in the Fall while in the middle of a deeply healing plant diet. Then I fell into a deep (metaphorical) hole and found any type of creative expression nearly impossible. So it sat, unfinished for months… an apt metaphor for the healing process.

As I climb out of the hole that’s been my sanctuary for the last several months I’m finding new ways to move forward. I’m taking baby steps towards changing the patterns that have always propelled me.

Im opening.

I’m listening.

I’m softening.

I’m trusting.

I’m strengthening an entirely new part of my being. And this small act of completion is affirming of a new process.

I’m releasing the PUSH.
