S Curve Essentials
Everything you need to know about Yoga & Pilates with s curve scoliosis
Is your S-Curve Scoliosis causing you pain and discomfort? Do you love your yoga or Pilates class but you're worried to do movements that might not be safe or make things worse?
The specialised S-Curve Essentials training program is designed uniquely for individuals with S-curve scoliosis, who want to practice in a safe way and tailored to your unique needs. Yoga and movement should be a time for mental rest, relaxation, physical and ease of pain. With scoliosis your body has to deal with asymetries in the body that can you lead you to feeling imbalanced, conscious about the way it looks and scared about making it worse.
It's time to change that
Say hello to a stronger more confident you
I have been practicing yoga consistently for over 35 years but it is only by discovering Christine on YouTube early in the pandemic that I now have a true understanding of my S curve and how to work with it. (right thoracic left lumbar ..heavy on the lumbar).
My new understanding now goes with me in my movements on and off the yoga mat. the

This training is ideal for you if:
- You want to manage pain and discomfort associated with scoliosis through a dedicated yoga or Pilates practice.
- You've been diagnosed with S-curve scoliosis and want to be proactive about your health.
- You're worried about your scoliosis getting worse and want to prevent further progression.
- You want exercises that are safe and effective for your condition.
- You've checked with your doctor that it's safe for you to practice scoliosis-friendly yoga.
- You're new to yoga or looking for specific adaptations to suit your S-curve.
Christine has transformed my relationship with my scoliosis, allowing me to move from the state of “I have an issue and all I can do is therapeutic movement” to a wholistic acceptance of my body as imperfectly perfect. Working with Christine was the first time since the diagnosis of a rapid progression of my scoliosis that I felt as if I were moving for my whole body, not just my scoliosis. I am so grateful to her for her depth of understanding about the body, scoliosis, and our need for wholeness both body and soul.

I've attended a few seminars on scoliosis and your workshop was such a breath of fresh air where things are explained in a way the people who matter understand.
I learned a lot about my own body patterns and why I have such a
predominant rotation to one side. More importantly I now can work with it instead of against it.

About Me
I had been suffering from back ache since I was a teenager. Due to my left lumbar scoliosis I spent a lot of time (and money) seeing physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors. I was hoping that they would "fix" me! I found those therapies to be helpful but nothing created a lasting effect.
I gravitated to yoga nearly 20 years ago and made it my mission to pass on the benefits of yoga and what I have learned about scoliosis to others going through the same thing.
I'm a certified Yoga for Scoliosis teacher (studying with teachers such as Elise Miller Browning and Judith Hanson Lasater) and APPI Pilates instructor. I have taught hundreds of students from all over the world and of all ages who suffer from scoliosis.
