SOMATIC Pilates Yoga Exercises
for Winging Scapula fix
and Shoulder Mobility Flexibility
- The class focuses on addressing shoulder instability, weakness, or pain through a combination of Pilates, yoga, and corrective exercises.
- Props such as chairs, blocks, pillows, tennis balls, and straps are used throughout the practice.
- Initial exercises involve lying on a diagonal surface (like a chair or bench) to engage the core and stabilize the shoulders.
- Movements include lifting and lowering the arms while focusing on core engagement and shoulder blade stabilization.
- I demonstrate variations for those with different flexibility levels, such as using a bolster or modifying the position.
- Additional exercises incorporate weightlifting motions with light weights or improvised items like oranges.
- Stretching exercises are interspersed throughout the routine to promote flexibility and release tension in the shoulders.
- The practice also includes somatic movements to increase body awareness and address holding patterns.
- The session concludes with a series of stretches and movements aimed at enhancing shoulder strength, stability, and mobility.

What is your why? What is your take-away? Why are you here (BTW- I am so glad that you are) ?
Let’s get real. Life is busy and often hard. It’s a challenge to juggle the balance work, kids, loved ones, health, emotions, mindset… but we can. We all want to find enlightenment or a better body or maybe Vairāgya. But we are not living like a monk and cannot take time to extensively meditate. I am happy if I tap into that divine source here and there. When I do that – it guides me through the rest. This is what I want to share with you. Feeling better in the body but also mentally and spiritually. Let’s celebrate and share our victories especially the small ones.

"...ultimately shaping me with a better mind and body."
"Rebekah is an amazing teacher with lots of variety. My flexibility and mobility have improved greatly since trying her Yin Fusion and other pose variations. My forward fold, balance etc was non existent until I starting following her flows. I love that her sequences challenge me and offers other variations for different levels. As a truck driver I find motivation to incorporate stretching throughout my day. Maybe I can work up to trying her pilates class someday. "

"She was adept at adapting moves to my level of ability and flexiblity and very responsive to any requests for help..."
"Rebekah did a wonderful job explaining even the most basic moves and was always willing to model them for me or help me adjust my position. She was adept at adapting moves to my level of ability and flexiblity and very responsive to any requests for help with or emphasis on certain postures or aspects of yoga." Kerry Sabbag
"Pilates is addictive and so is Rebekah!!!”
“As a mother of three young children, finding time to exercise is always tough...however,the energy Rebekah demonstrates in class and the workout definitely make it worth the effort!!! With Rebekah, I quickly learnt to really enjoy the physical and mental benefits of her classes. Pilates challenges my body to become stronger and more flexible and my mind to become more focused and positive"

"Rebekah is a great instructor."
"Rebekah is a great instructor. She is very knowledgable and always provides a challenging workout. I definitely recommend taking her classes." Jennifer Jarmark
"I found the class to be an enlightening experience."
"I took Rebekah Aramini's yoga class consistently for approximately two years. Primarily, I took the class because it was a tremendous work out. I feel as though I improved my flexibility and strength as a result of the class. In addition, I found the class to be an enlightening experience.
I truly believe that it enhanced my understanding of the mind-body connection. It helped me to decrease my stress level and to think of problematic situations in a more positive light. I feel that Rebekah's ability to integrate the physical and emotional aspects of yoga made each and every class a wonderful experience." Amy O'Connor
"In each instance Rebekah strived to make herself a better teacher and everyone in her class a better student and person."
"Prior to my study of yoga, I had the opportunity to participate in a number of Rebekah Aramini’s exercise classes. In each class Rebekah invested the time to demonstrate the proper technique, observe and correct our techniques, and provide personal instruction/advice after class. This was done to connect with each member of the class to improve their fitness and well being.
She is an energetic, involved teacher who was an extremely popular instructor due to her style of teaching—complete knowledge of the subject, encouragement/help to achieve the proper technique, providing the background of the technique—the purpose/ goal etc.
In each instance Rebekah strived to make herself a better teacher and everyone in her class a better student and person. For approximately 10 years I have observed Rebekah Aramini’s teaching manner and the qualities inherent in her being is what she has brought to Yoga.
She is now “living the life of the Yogi’ and I have been lucky to have practiced Ashtanga Yoga under the “yogi” Rebekah for 4 years. I would welcome the opportunity to be a “yogi” in her class again." John Kent
