Stability can unintentionally show up as bracing or rigidity when we consciously try to create it – But then suppleness and a full breath can get lost. I really love how my mentor describes stability as having control and coordination through the arc of a movement. Consider this; when you slow something way down, do you notice any wavering, awkwardness, or engagement of unnecessary body parts? If so, imagine that magnified when you complete that movement quickly and without as much focus. Feeling stable is amplified when we move efficiently on a foundation of ease. Let’s explore this together! Small group classes and 1:1 options are available.

Do you know what you really want? Do you give yourself these things? This is where Intimacy begins. With you. You generate goals, you practise the skills, and then you go out to the world and you put it into action. This is the journey.
The Facts about Whitening Toothpastes
Whitening toothpastes don’t necessarily whiten your teeth. In fact, it can damage your enamel. It can temporarily remove surface stains but it doesn’t change the natural color of your teeth or lighten stains deeper than the surface. They should not be used for extended periods of time. If you want to really improve the color of your smile, talk to your dentist about the options they have available. It may cost more in the short term, but you will get longer term results.
