Hi Rachel Hill - that exercise that you are referring to is a variation of Mermaid. I like the "z" position (or pinwheel) of the legs because you get internal rotation on 1 leg and external rotation on the other leg along with the side bending on both sides to stretch out the lateral trunk. Good all around! Thank you for watching... Portia
Thank you SO much Portia-i thought as much-I have just discovered you as a student teacher in the UK and wow....I will never log off your classes xxxxx Thanks a million xxxx
You're VERY welcome Rachel. Keep on enjoying and I look forward to meeting you soon! Balanced Body will be in London next April 2017 - you can get more details on the website pilates.com - would love to see you there Thanks for following and participating, Portia xo
Oh my goodness- I will be there-to meet you would be utterly a dream/amazing-my current tutor and mentor, Keeley Craigie from Pure Pilates in the UK, rates you highly and now I see why. Roll on 2017-I cannot wait and am busting with excitement about my whole pilates journey with you guys....x
