Middle school PE. Ugh I can vividly remember how much anxiety I got when it was time for the “captains” (aka the fastest, most athletic boys in class) to pick teams. I prayed so hard that I wouldn’t be picked last, but it didn’t help. No one wanted me. I know it’s just PE, but being last pick made me feel ashamed, unworthy and like I didn’t belong.
Then mile days. I dreaded “The Mile” so much. Again, the competitive nature of the activity (which honestly was a race) gave me so much anxiety. You know, it’s all fun for the ones who are naturally fast, but for me – I can still remember struggling to finish my mile while feeling like hot soup was boiling in my lungs as my classmates were looking on and judging.
And of course, we can’t forget to talk about PE clothes. Eeewwwww. I do not like being told what to wear, especially when the thing I’m forced to wear I’m also being forced to pay for ANDDDD it looks so bad because it’s not made with my (female) body in mind.
All of this combined made me hate PE and associate all exercise in general with negative feelings.
It wasn’t until high school that I discovered Pilates through an informercial (who remembers Mari Windsor Pilates DVDs!?) and had the realization that fitness wasn’t about competing with others, it was about being better than who you were yesterday. The competition was only between you and yourself!
From there, I decided to get certified as a Pilates instructor in college, I began teaching at gyms, and then started a YT channel all based around making fitness fun!
You know, I strongly believe that if PE could offer group exercise and allow students to wear whatever made them feel confident to move, a lot more girls would have a healthier, more positive relationship with exercise earlier on in life. I know for me it would have made all the difference.

Falar com o Sr. António é como viajar no tempo, é sonhar acordado, é uma lição de 4.fo/LOVELY vida…. um poço de resiliència e um sorriso genuino que nos “abraça” sem nos conhecer.💙
That is the biggest upgrade to workout clothes I’ve ever seen! Good job!❤
I was always picked last but luckily we got a new teacher who says we have to do our own teams and she made it fair. Because of her PE is way more fun that it ever was and ur vids always motivate me to be more active❤

Hell ya. You get um girl 👏🏻!
I had heart surgery at age 8. And still have heart valves defects to this day. As a jr. high student it became more apparent as some kids endurance increased with years and my body was still at age 8 … I was never picked last exactly (cause that’d give them a bad rep.) but I was like the bottom 3 in anything that required running. The thing that sucked? I was giving it my all when I could have skipped class all together with an A. But it was only appreciated by the adults.
Until high school when the right tribe of kids found ways to include me skrimage and practice throws … after class I helped out the soccer and footballs from time to time. They even included me in a win celebration a time or two.
Be the person who creates ways to include everyone. EVERYONE. Those folks you were kind to? They will remember for a life time and pass it along.
you’re amazing😭😭 please consider making cute & supportive leotards for us ballet girlies ill give you my money ASAP
YAAAAAAASSS I AGREE 200%
DANCER GANG 🩰
YESS.♡
Yes 💗
YESSSSS ✨💕
I love your channel you inspire me soooo much . I’m 12 and I’m in high school (I’m from the uk ) and I’m really into gymnastics and I was wondering if you could design some long sleeve leotards and shorts to wear to my training and I feel the same about this in school m and my friends always get picked last but that’s ok xx
the first part is so relatable honestly. and it’s embarrassing because I’m really bad at it. glad you’re successful though!!
I remember getting yelled at in daycare for not running fast enough in a game of tag football. Guess she thought I just wasn’t trying
I’m really happy for you, Cas. ❤️
I love you!!!! ❤️You’re the person who got me into workouts & stuff to begin with. Keep growing! 🌻
I love all the outfits you show/make and it’s honestly really cool that you didn’t like P.E and now it’s your job 😁
My schools never did “picking teams” because kids would get so upset that they got picked last. It became such a problem Concluding to the teacher picking the teams
Heyyyy weird request. Actually 2. I love your clothing fabric and how comfy it is. You seriously need to make swimsuits. Some just have weird prints and fittings and I think you would make great swimsuits. One more thing. With the same fabric (stretchy) like the leggings I would love a tank top with a built in bra inside. It’s soo uncomfortable when the bra is outside and not inside the fabric. Btw I love your designs and I hope you’ll keep making more 💗
In high school I never felt comfortable in those shorts so I would bring sweatpants to PE. The teacher got so upset that he gave me a D. The next semester they changed the policy and you were allowed to wear sweatpants. I took that grade with pride lol😂
