Interesting class. Could have used a bit more clarity in the instructions, since most of the time you are in positions where you can't see the screen, e.g. when doing the inversion sequence the instructions were to 'squeeze and push' but she didn't mention that it was your legs you were supposed to be pushing. I think you need to watch the class through first before trying to do it.
Okay, so I’m new to this series and enjoying the challenge of learning new things. However, I felt so unprepared for the pike/plough part. It seems like it came out of nowhere and was a large leap ahead challenge wise. I felt like it didn’t fit in the progression of this series.
So helpful! Love this series.
I am really enjoying the pilates part of this challenge. However, this one was just too hard when the inversions came in, doing the pike thing. It would be nice if there were some modifications mentioned for those of us who just don't have the flexibility to do such movements. I have lumbar scoliosis which hinders my practice.
