Join Ellie and Posture Squad member Mirka (who came camping from Shropshire) for her FINAL 'Member Morning' from her current studio. Mirka has an interesting story - she was brought up in Slovakia, moved to Shropshire, walked the Camino de Santiago, loves to garden, trained as a breathwork instructor, is training to be a counsellor and, of course, loves posture! Listen to Mirka tell her...

Join Ellie for a reminder of what posture therapy is all about ... balance, function and power (in that specific order). Too many go from sedentary and desk-bound straight to 'power' (running, gym etc), without doing the foundational work to fix the broken movement patterns first. With broken movement patterns, 'power' is going to hurt, always. Your options are then to either a...

Join Ellie for an episode where we look at how posture therapy is really the process of pattern recognition. Finding patterns with your pain and posture exercises helps to take the emotion away from the pain and encourage logic and objectivity to take over. Ellie firmly believes there's no 'random' pain ... it's just the causes you might not have clocked yet! Other Info - Order...

Join Ellie for this episode where she chats you through the causes of bunions and how you can go about tackling them naturally with posture (and without invasive surgery!)

Join Ellie for a chat about her recent business/personal update regarding sadly having to let her studio space go, her realisation about the studio space and how this ties into her chronic overperformance (and recommendation of Pippa Grange's new book 'Life Reclaimed') and, importantly and finally, about what postural deviations you should consider if you suffer foot pain and why ca...

Join Ellie and husband, Posture Ben (@posture.ben) for a recap of his recently completed 10 day, 500km barefoot hike across all 95 'Ethels' of the Peak District. We recorded this the day after he succeeded in his challenge, which ran from April 16 - April 26th 2026. Ben speaks about his 'why' for the challenge, his training plan, the challenge itself, highs and lows and his per...

In this episode, Ellie takes on a request from a Posture Squad member to talk more about vertigo. Vertigo is a symptom of a trapped, forward head, where the ear position is not being held efficiently enough to keep the fluid within the ear balanced. Normally, when vertigo is a symptom, the answer lays in putting strength back into the feet and length through the front of the hips (this pulls the u...

In this episode, Ellie is joined in the studio by Danni Oates, a Posture Squad member who came all the way from Essex (and back in a day - eek!). Danni is an interesting guest to have on as she has been doing posture fairly consistently for a few years, but hasn't been getting great results (yet). It's wonderful to hear how someone can stay so motivated despite the challenges and hopeful...

Many people make the mistake of thinking that pain = rest needed. Whilst this totally applies if the injury is acute (or if you're suffering an illness), this is NOT the case for chronic pain (when pain builds up over time without an 'accident'). If you rest whilst in pain, you are not changing the reasons you are suffering pain. By doing the right posture exercises during a pain fl...

In this episode, Ellie discusses the frustrating game of 'postural whack-a-mole' which is, unfortunately, a normal and necessary part of the process of getting to the root causes of your pain and truly healing. You won't untangle your posture without feeling you are taking two steps backwards frequently (you're not actually taking steps backwards, it's just that your body...

Join Ellie for a chat on all things shoulder pain. If your shoulders hurts, it's not 'weak' or 'bad', it's overworked and exhausted .. and needs to be left alone. Through posture detection, you'll be able to figure out what 'threads' (other joints) you need to pull (move differently) in order to put the shoulder in more optimal postural alignment to rel...

Join Ellie and Posture Squad Member Bridget for a chat on all things running, ultra-marathons, rock climbing and posture. Bridget is such an interesting and inspiring person, it seems that no challenge is too great for her and she uses her posture practice to facilitate her running obsession and keep her winning some really impressive long distance races!  Other Info - Order my book ‘Posture Power...

Join Ellie for an episode on all things knees! When knees hurt, the question is not 'what is wrong with the knee?', the question really should be 'why is the knee bearing too much load?'. We need to figure out what the knee is compensating for ... where is the real dysfunction? Normally it's the shoulders, hips or feet! Events - BOOK LAUNCH is on 26th March in Covent Garde...

Join Ellie for another 'Member Morning' visit from Posture Squad member Kat. Kat's a full-time Mum, part-time yoga teacher and long-term headache sufferer. Amongst hearing more about Kat's frustrations she experienced whilst struggling to get to the bottom of her debilitating headaches, we hear about how finding posture has been a helpful aid to the headaches (especially foot b...

Join Ellie and local Posture Squad member Lesley, for a chat about lifestyle change, naturally overcoming a Fibromyalgia diagnosis, loving yoga, finding posture and how discovering posture seems like the missing link in getting rid of her L knee and L ankle pain. Amanda Coyne Yoga (Derbyshire) - https://acyoga.co.uk/ - @acyoga Events - BOOK LAUNCH is on 26th March in Covent Garden at 5-6pm. https:...

Join Ellie for a look into the ways we self-sabotage ourselves - this is both in the context of our posture practice, but also our life more widely. Ellie firmly believes that how we do one thing, is how we do everything, and we can use our posture practice to hold a mirror up to ourselves to highlight the ways we might not be showing much self-awareness or self-compassion. If we can focus on our...

In this episode, Posture Ellie talks you through her experience of going coffee free and then moves onto explaining how exercises that can be your firm favourites, might some day turn into ones that cause you pain. This can be confusing, but the logic always stays the same, your body will give you the information you need to know, and if something causes you pain, you've got to pivot and find...

Join Ellie as she interviews another guest and member of The Posture Squad, Jen. Jen is a yoga teacher alongside her corporate job and Ellie dives into this, along with her movement background and of course, her love of posture.  If you enjoyed this and would like to see more of what Jen has to offer, or would like to join her Yoga Social or Yoga Social Pro groups, then check out her instagram acc...

Join Ellie as she invites you to her book launch (and a walk the day after), chats through what has been going on with her 'untwist and unlock my neck' mission of 2026 and then explains why keeping perspective is so important. This is a really, really long game we need to play! And small change is still change. Neck Links -  Face 'Zapper' - https://ziipbeauty.com/ (DRJESSC is t...

Join Ellie as she sits down to chat with Posture Squad Member Jo Mundy. Jo came to visit Ellie's Peak District Studio in Jan 2026; they filmed a Golf-based routine together for The Posture Squad software and then recorded the podcast. Jo talks us through her professional golfing career, her discovery of posture and why she loves it. You can find Jo on YouTube and Instagram @jomundygolf (for i...

Join Ellie as she dissects this question ... and uses the quote "How much do you want it and how hard are you willing to work for it?" to help her out. There are SO many variables between person to person that will impact the speed of progress, most significantly, how much posture you do. But on top of that, there's a plethora of other things that will impact you. The quick answer i...

Join Ellie for this 'brief' (relatively speaking) intro episode for 2026! Ellie covers her own resolutions, how's she's reframed previously restrictive/punishing resolutions with a more positive spin on them and mentions how she wants to help Posture Squad members stay accountable and on track with their posture practice. It's all about your 'why' ... we'll...

In this episode, Posture Ellie wraps up the podcast for the year. She reflects on some challenges she's faced and what she's learnt to drop going forwards into 2026. After some reflections, Ellie talks through the plan for The Posture Protocol programme which starts on Jan 5th and runs til June 30th 2026. It's free for Posture Squad members (included in £29.99pm membership) and £150...
