Morning Posture Botox Classes: A Free Pilates Challenge
Share
With many of us struggling with back pain, mobility issues and poor posture after leaning over our laptops all day Rebecca Dadoun a Pilates Instructor & Founder of Pilates Prescription has introduced a FREE 4 day posture botox mobility challenge.
As someone juggling three kids and a business, Rebecca know’s how easy it is to ignore those little warning signs – the stiff neck from just going to bed, the low back twinge when you’re walking the dog, the tension headaches that come from nowhere. It’s those small, consistent moments of alignment throughout the day are more powerful than occasional stretching sessions or waiting until pain forces action.
The best part about the morning Posture Botox classes is that they take less than 5 minutes but can save you hours of discomfort later in the day and days ahead.
No fancy equipment needed—just you, your bedroom floor, and the willingness to move your spine before you start hunching over devices or picking up your toddler.
Many of Rebecca’s clients start Pilates after their physio or osteopath recommends they take up Pilates to strengthen or mobilise the areas they’re having trouble with. What these stretches and moves all have in comment, is that they are super simple and you just need a few minutes of your day!
What’s Included;
• Daily posture sessions (only 5-20 minutes each)
• 2 live Zoom classes (all recorded for replay)
• WhatsApp community support
• Chance to win a wellness prize box

The Top Three Pilates Mistakes People Make…
While there are lots of potential mistakes I see people make, most can be linked to three things: form, breathing, and core engagement.
1. Core Engagement:
Many people struggle with properly engaging their core, often due to not understanding what the core actually is. Most people think that the core is only the abdominal muscles, but in reality, it’s a system of muscles working together. Think of your core as a cylinder: abdominal muscles in front, spinal muscles in back, pelvic floor at the bottom, and diaphragm at the top to simplify it. Developing a strong core requires engaging all these components, not just the abs, and certainly not through crunches alone!
2. Breathing Technique:
Correct breathing is crucial in Pilates and frequently overlooked. Proper technique involves lateral breathing and engaging your abdominals with each exhale. A helpful cue is to imagine drawing your navel towards your spine while simultaneously sending your lowest rib towards your pelvis. Mastering your breath is key to core engagement, safe movement, maintaining the right movement speed, and reaping the mindfulness benefits of the practice.
3. Form and Stability:
Understanding which parts of your body should stay still and which should be moving is essential for proper form. Most Pilates exercises are performed with a neutral pelvis, meaning in your practice you should be stabilising certain areas while moving others. For instance, in a four-point kneeling position lifting your leg to tabletop, your torso and spine should remain still while only your hip joint moves. A common mistake is allowing unnecessary movement, such as arching the back into a “banana shape” during the leg lift, bending the elbows or tipping the head back!
Once you understand your form, core engagement and breathing most of the mistakes are fixed!
