New to Pilates? You’re in the right place!
Below are 5 workouts specifically designed to help you understand the foundations of Pilates. We take the movements slowly and have a real focus on form and technique. This will give you all the confidence you need to start exploring the rest of the Class Library and Sculpt Challenges.
If you are new to Pilates, a huge welcome, you are in exactly the right place. This session sets the foundation and the fundamentals. Here we go through alignment, breathing and core engagement (all of which are intertwined) - take your time as there is quite a lot to absorb here - it will take time to incorporate these effectively but if you keep listening to the cues and staying present, it will click!
Session 2 is all about the spine. Spinal mobility and spinal strength. Protecting the spine is such a vital element of Pilates so this session is valuable when you are just starting out.
Finishing this 5-part-series with a full body workout where we put it all together. Now go and explore the Class Library and Sculpt Challenges!
'Engage the core' is something you will hear a lot in Pilates but its more complex than it first sounds to actually feel. this workout helps define what it it and what it feels like in the body and then we piece that together with foundational movement. A great intro to core work or a great reminder if you've been with me for a while.
Session 4 provides a tutorial for 3 signature Pilates exercises that lots of people find quite tricky to master - The Roll Up, The Shoulder bridge , and Rolling-like-a-ball.
