Mat For Men - This class is geared towards the men. Recognizing that men commonly have tight hamstrings, and low backs and tend to be stronger in the arms and legs, Cecile incorporates more stretching, variations on the exercises to help alleviate overuse up the hip flexors, and to accommodate for tight hamstrings. Remember Joseph Pilates was a man and designed his work for men. While this class would be good for anyone to take, it considers the person with limited flexibility. (Filmed September 19, 2010)

I get frustrated that my lack of flexibility keeps me from doing exercises the "right" way. Cecile's tips on how to make alterations were really helpful.

i loved this, it is helpful to remember to pepper in stretches for anyone who is less flexible. i wish there were a lot more classes geared especially toward men! (including apparatus)
thank you!
