Today I take a dive into the world of Pilates-like workouts, and into the dangers of combining too many workout modalities into one class or session. I discuss what to look out for in any workout or studio, as well as the importance of repetition and consistency to see results. Follow my advice, and your body will thank you.

Today we start to sit up. These 4 exercises - Spine Stretch, Open Leg Rocker, Corkscrew, and Saw - work us in spine flexion, extension, and rotation. We sit, we rock & roll, we rotate the lower body with some added spine movement, and we rotate the upper body with added spine and shoulder movement.

These are SO important!

Rolling like a ball is our first experience in full spine flexion, head to tail. It's a fun one for flexion-tolerant healthy spines, and there are many ways to modify it and even make it harder!

Rolling prepares us for much of the mat to come, and helps us teach many flexion exercises in the system, including stomach massage, short spine, tower, monkey, and others.

Oh, The Single Leg Circle, you're so simple yet so hard. This exercise works on pelvic stability, quad and hip flexor strength, and shoulder stability. In the more advanced versions, it actually works on pelvic mobility as well.

In the full studio there are tons of places to practice these - cadillac/tower, barrels, reformer. I also offer modifications and variations.

If you do Pilates and use the equipment, you may have questions. What is the actual Pilates equipment that Joe created? Are all Pilates brands the same? What are the differences? Are balls, bands, and rollers really Pilates equipment?

***I forgot to mention the guillotine - this attaches to the floor & ceiling.***

Take 20 minutes with me and get some clarity on what Pilates equipment is, and how to choose which Pilates equipment is best for you and for your teacher training.
