Thank you! Nice to get some pilates back into my practice. (Enjoyed it so much I did it twice.)

3/23/21. Really great core practice to add to my roster of pilates classes. I have been doing pilates core practices 3-4 x week for about 9 months and have noticed a huge improvement in my posture and low back stability This class was nicely challenging but doable. Great cues! One question for Julia (or anyone else): I tend to feel a lot of tension in my hip flexors when doing single leg & double leg extensions. Is there a cue I can use to shift the focus to the abdominals? Thank you!

@PeacefulRN I'm so glad you enjoyed the class and are feeling the benefits of Pilates!
Excellent question, many people struggle with this. To help ease your hip flexors while your body is learning to do the exercises without overusing them, I'd recommend doing some windshield wiper type movements between exercises and before starting class. Any time you go in to an extension you can rotate your leg(s) back and forth to try to encourage the hip flexors to disengage.
Also, really focus on maintaining a neutral spine (tailbone to the floor with a small hover under your low back).
Make smaller movements with your legs so that your hip flexors don't grip too much, focus on engaging your glutes and hamstrings as you lower an extended leg away from you and take breaks!
Visiting a physiotherapist could also be very beneficial.
I hope this helps!

I LOVE it. Fun, challenging and quick. Sometimes that's exactly what I need. Thank you for this snappy class. This is just another reason I love "doyogawithme.com" with the large portfolio of classes, I can always find something to suit whatever mood I'm in. Love it. Please give us more.
