I’m so excited for you all to try this Pilates Slide class!!! It’s a combination of my years of experience teaching group megaformer classes and my Pilates mat training. I’ve wanted to put together classes like this for a while, and have been (im)patiently waiting to complete my Mat course before doing so.
If you enjoyed the Sculpt & Slide class I shared in the spring, you’ll love this. It’s similar but without the light weights, and a little more of a Pilates feel. Also I will have Pilates Slide classes that incorporate light hand weights, resistance bands, and other props in the future. I wanted to start with a towel/slider-only class though so that everyone can try it, regardless of access to equipment.
Pilates Slide Class – Towel/Slider Only
EQUIPMENT NEEDED
- Towel/slider – paper plates work on carpet, but I would still have a dish towel on hand for knee padding
Pilates Slide classes mix Mat Pilates work with sliding sequences inspired by the megaformer. Class is a continuous flow, but we’ll generally focus on one muscle group as a time as we move from sequence to sequence.
Roadmap of class:
- Warm Up
- Core mat work
- Sliding plank/upper body work
- Standing sliding lunge work
- Side body (outer hips/obliques) mat work
- Repeat on other side
- Prone work
- Cool down
