This Pilates class builds heat with standing squats, side lunges, split squats on a block, and balance work before moving to planks, glute series, pushups from the knees, and a focused core sequence. Lisa-Rani keeps the practice grounded in control and body awareness, with clear options to modify, including skipping the block or weights when needed.

Here you'll find writing on mindfulness, neuroscience, mental health, physical wellbeing, and yoga.

These topics often overlap: attention, behaviour and embodiment are all part of the same ecosystem of experience, and the aim here is to explore those connections in a thoughtful and practical way. Some posts draw from research, others from lived experience and teaching. The intention is to share ideas that are useful, considered, and occasionally a bit different from what is typically said.
