Adding pilates to my yoga practice and this was a great start. Terrific instruction. Definitely coming back to this. Challenging, but doable for a beginner like me.

Hi Kim, at the beginning of the video you say "back of the neck presses against the sky". Do you mean that the neck should be actively tensed and pushing upwards or just that it should be in a neutral position?
Thanks.

Comment:

that was a great class, and although I've been to lots of pilates classes some of the moves were more challenging than what I am used to. For example, the arm leaning, and along with this and the Fundamentals class, I have a greater understanding of the five principles. Previously, I'd only been aware of the core aspect involving the navel and the abdominal muscles.
