Fluidform founder Kirsten King shares her Beauty, Health & Wellness Rituals.

At Par Olive we love our at home Fluidform workouts. We spoke with the Founder and our beautiful friend Kirsten King to learn more about her beauty, health and wellness rituals. 

My mornings start before the sun comes up with some form of movement. Today I was lucky enough to get into the studio for a Reformer class but when I have less time, 20 minutes of Fluidform at Home is all I need to wake up the body and start my day feeling strong. My (very simple) beauty routine follows and starts with a hot and cold shower–this improves circulation, helps with muscle recovery and energy levels. I wash my face and hydrate with Rationale cleanser and créme, finish with SPF, some light foundation and mascara. I prioritise drinking a litre of water and fuelling my body with a protein-rich breakfast while I am getting my girls ready for before-school tennis or swimming. Today is our Fluidform green smoothie with a big scoop of PEARL Coconut Collagen.

For anyone new to Pilates, start by forgetting everything you think you know. Find trust in the process and believe that you can change and transform your body. Movement is about feeling comfortable and safe. These emotions ensure the body is relaxed and ready to move and find balance. The body and mine both need to feel at ease. 

I don’t have a set “routine” as such, given the nature of my work being so versatile. A large part of my work involves training with my staff, visiting our 6 Fluidform studios or filming workouts for Fluidform at Home, all of which require a lot of physical movement. The time between this is essential to remain consistent with my exercise coupled with active recovery – to allow my body to recover well, feel strong and balanced. In an ideal “routine” I am in the studio 2-3 times a week and Fluidform at Home every other day, a mix of my favourite workouts with boxing, skipping and stretching.
