Your core strategy matters
HOW your core engages matters.
A core strategy that creates excessive intra-abdominal pressure can push downwards or outwards, and may contribute to core and pelvic floor issues such as diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse and urinary incontinence.
We’ll be exploring core strategies and “cheats” in my next Restore Your Core series in Taunton, starting on Thursday 16th September. And learning how to repattern them to build a stronger, more functional core.

What is Restore Your Core™?
RYC is a whole body method to retrain the core and pelvic floor muscles to be functional, reflexive, responsive and supportive to your body. It combines sustainable and functional pilates- and yoga-based exercises, with a focus on biomechanics and alignment.
What’s different about Restore Your Core™?
RYC® gives you the knowledge and tools you need to understand your body better and work out more effectively.
RYC® isn’t just about building core strength, although it will help your core get stronger.
You’ll learn about common core “cheats” and strategies that can contribute to core and pelvic floor dysfunction; how to spot when you’re using them; and how to build a functional, reflexive core that supports you both on and off the mat.
And because we’re not just a collection of parts, this is a programme that trains the core as a whole-body system. From optimal breathing for the core, to addressing tight hips and shoulders.
RYC® will help you discover your own preferred patterns – where your body likes to move, and what movements it avoids – so you can create more strength, mobility, stability and function.
RYC® takes a function over fit approach, encouraging you to return to the sports and activities you love once you feel ready and confident. It offers long term solutions over quick-fix, band-aid ones.
“I have learnt so much from Hannah about how to support my core…I thought you just had to walk around with your stomach clenched but this is so not the case. I have now started to train my core to kick in when my body needs it. I can now lift in a safer way as by using my candles breath, my core knows it’s needed and springs into action.”
