Posture Up

How You Will Benefit

Identify Common Postural Deviations

Gain awareness and knowledge about commonly seen postural deviations and learn how to properly stack your body to avoid injury and pain.

Master Breathing Mechanics

Review breathing mechanics to make sure you are using the correct core muscles and getting rib movement, enabling accessory muscles in your neck and shoulders to relax. 

Release Tight Muscles

Learn how to release tight muscles that restrict movement, and cause malalignment and aches and pain. 

Lengthen Short, Tight Muscles

Follow short warmup movements to loosen tight hips and learn full body stretches to incorporate into your daily life.

Strengthen Opposing Muscles

Follow the simple videos to improve the strength of the opposing tight muscles to enable you to maintain proper alignment.

Strengthen Core Muscles

Learn how to engage core muscles to gain strength and avoid injury. Because of our sedentary lifestyles, our core muscles (from upper backs to our bottoms) are often weak. Follow along with the videos to learn targeted exercises to build core strength and counteract sitting.

Community

Welcome to the community. Attend our live weekly meet-ups (or send a message to our chat) to review exercise form, ask questions, and take part in discussions. 

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes, a few simple props are used in the program. The props are described in the introductory section where you will also find links to purchase them on Amazon. There is also information on how to substitute the props with items you have at home. The one prop I recommend purchasing is a blue Theraband which costs about $12. Props are not used until Week 3, so you can start the program and then order. You won't lose any time!

The sessions will be scheduled when the most participants are able to attend live. All recordings will be posted in the private Facebook group and emailed to members for those who are not able to join. The meetings are very casual. Come dressed comfortably. We will meet every other week throughout the 6 weeks to review form, answer questions and keep you motivated.

Perfect Program for Me!

I am so excited to have this program and Meryl makes it even better. I always find it hard to carve out time to help myself. But with Motivated to Move it’s so easy! These are 20 minute sessions which are so well orchestrated by Meryl to be safe and impactful. I can’t recommend enough!! I am going to do it all over again on my own!

Best on-line class!

Meryl makes this class personal even though it is on-line. This is not your typical exercise class. Meryl makes sure that each workout is done properly and is can be tailored to individual needs. She is extremely knowledgeable and does a great job explaining everything. She has options for all different levels which makes this the perfect course for everyone. I highly recommend!

MTM Online Class

During these times when we cannot meet in person, Meryl makes you feel like you are one on one with her! I highly recommend this course for anyone just starting to get back into shape, or even if you are a workout guru! Nothing is better than making sure you perform each exercise correctly to avoid injury! One of the best online course I have taken!!

Like no other exercise program!

Motivated to Move is like no other exercise program. Great way to get in shape safely without injury. Meryl goes through each motion slowly so that it is done correctly, rather than many other workouts where the focus is on the speed rather than correct methodology. Can't recommend enough.

Excellent exercise program with a focus on form

Highly recommend this exercise program. Meryl makes it interesting and informative. She carefully explains and demonstrates proper form so you get the most out of each exercise. You can go at your own pace and the bonus arm workouts are great.
