Mat Pilates for Beginners

LEARN THE PILATES BASICS You get one new pilates mat class each week for 5 weeks (with a bonus class on week 3). Pilates might seem overwhelming if you were taking a class and they are just calling out the names of the exercises. Each class introduces you to another group of pilates exercises, while reviewing the ones we covered in the previous class. In addition to these classes there are tutorials of each of the beginner mat exercises that we cover in the classes. If you are wanting to zero in on how to do one exercise particular, these tutorials will help. I recommend practicing each class a mininmum of 3 times during the week in order to prepare yourself for the next class. BONUS: Once you have completed all 5 weeks of classes, you will recieve one free live in studio or virtual mat class.

Why Join

Active adults looking to loosen up. If you are anything like me, I've always love my cardio and strength training. Stretching and mobility work was always done haphazardly. I learned the hard way (injuries cause by overuse and tightness), that I needed to do something so that I could keep doing the activities that I love most.

Pilates was one of the somethings that I needed. It can help you too.
