    2. Salema Veliu on Endometriosis and Pilates

    One in ten women have endometriosis. The average time to diagnosis is eight years. And in those eight years, many of them are moving — attending Pilates, teaching yoga, continuing to work — because no one has explained what is actually happening inside their bodies. In this episode, Olya speaks with Salema Veliu: a movement educator with over twenty years of international experience across yoga, Pilates, and bodywork, and a woman living with endometriosis. Salema has studied anatomy with Leslie Kaminoff in New York, myofascial anatomy with Gary Carter, and the neuroscience of movement through Daniel Wolpert’s research at Cambridge. She is also the creator of Slowform Reformer Pilates — a method born directly from her own experience of what happens when the body stops coping. What sets this conversation apart is the rare combination Salema brings: deep anatomical and neurological expertise, and lived experience. She can explain exactly what endometriosis does to the fascia, the diaphragm, the nervous system — because she has studied it, and because she has felt it. Whether you are a movement professional with clients who have endometriosis, someone navigating a diagnosis yourself, or simply someone who wants to understand the body more honestly — this episode is for you.
