One of the things I love most about Mobilates is that we understand something that many other communities don't. Connection is important. Oh, so very important! But connection doesn't always have to mean getting dressed, travelling somewhere, joining a Zoom call, having the energy for conversation, or feeling obliged to parti

by Callie Di Nello Callie standing in front of a van with a yellow sun painted on it holding her dog Siena in her arms. Last Sunday, Siena Luna and I had ourselves quite the adventure at GoodWoof. Siena Luna is our Pomeranian - small, fluffy, endlessly opinionated, sassy and - as it turns out - rather more medically gifted than any of us have given her credit for. More on that in a moment ... We attended the most wonderful talk called “The Nose Knows” about Medical Detection

It can be difficult to find someone who understands persistent pain, fluctuating symptoms, fear around movement, fatigue, neurodivergence, and the reality of trying to keep up with exercises when life and health are already such a lot to handle. Alex does just that.

“What proof do I need to give you to show I’m on a low income?” And the answer is… none. At Mobilates, we don’t ask for proof.

It can feel creative, wise, and freeing to find a different way of doing things. A way that works with your body instead of against it. A way that helps you keep going, keep moving, keep living. And then there are times when adaptation does not feel inspiring at all.

Hello lovely Mob and suporters, and Happy New Year. If January feels a bit loud or heavy, you’re not alone. There’s so much pressure flying around to change ourselves, improve ourselves, push harder. We’re not doing that here. Mobilates is a place to come exactly as you are, wobbly, tired, low-spoon, hopeful, all of it. This year (and every year) we’re choosing nurturing, body love, gentle safe movement, and a community that reminds you you’re already enough.

I used to think that getting well was about being less lazy. Pushing through the pain and fatigue, ignoring what my body was saying, powering on despite how ill I was feeling. Then my body sat me down in my early twenties and said (it actually screamed at me!) absolutely not.

When illness forces us to pause, community keeps us moving. Mobilates founder Leanne shares an honest reflection on loss, purpose, and the power of rest and why Mobilates was built to last beyond one person.

Moving with Confidence – Pilates for Chronic Health Conditions: Functional Neurological Disorder (FND)

Our wonderful Leanne recently shared a post, which I think will resonate with too many of us. She asked us to record short videos about times we’d been dismissed or mistreated by medical professionals. The response was overwhelming, because, sadly, so many of us have a story, usually multiple stories.

Those with the least energy will push themselves to the very edge to support others. And those who are the poorliest, who barely have reserves of their own, are often the ones trying to make a difference in the world.
