Pilates Mat
About this Class
This class consists of an essential flow of Pilates exercises with modifications and progressions. The sequence of movements is intended to target the core while improving muscular symmetry, alignment and endurance. Focus will also include enhanced range of motion, balance and coordination. Discover a stronger sense of mind-body awareness and move with more ease and grace. Bring a mat and a desire to move! Recommended props: yoga or Pilates mat, light 1-5 lb hand weights (or water bottles/cans), mini ball (or small sturdy sofa pillow), towel 3-4 feet in length
This class is appropriate for all students with all experience levels, including new and beginner students who are still learning the basics.
You'll get a great workout, and still have energy later.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to get back on track to becoming healthy again. I love the encouragement and support that Barbara gives during her Pilates mat class. I am overweight, uncoordinated and enthusiastic about returning to get better! Thank you for offering these phenomenal classes virtually.

I love how different and effective this class is compared to what I'm used to doing. I am challenged but not so much that I don't want to come back! :) I feel energetic after class.
