Ladies, we're going to have a little fun today. So what we're going to do is we're going to start with foot rolling. This is a great thing to do for the alignment, but it also is a great way to begin your day and get that same stimulation that you would get by doing your footwork on the reformer. Okay? So it's also great if you do a really advanced workout and you know how you leave out the rolling so you don't get that spinal massage cause you're, you know, and then you go to the mat and roll.

You can also replace that with rolling your feet cause the outer edge of your foot, right is basically your spine. So you get all those reflexology points by a simple roll. And if you have a client who comes in and they're not in the best mood and you really don't want to deal with them, foot, roll them first before you start working with them. Okay? So you're going to begin with your legs at a 90 degree angle. Your stomach's lifted shoulders right over the hips, arms down, beautiful shoulders down, back in together.

And on the ball of the foot and you're just going to roll on the ball of foot. That's it. And as you do this, remember all the alignment that we worked on so that you're going right from your knee and your hip, right through the center of your heel, right through the center of your foot. And make sure if you tend to collapse in that you feel the outer edge of the foot getting that nice deep massage. Good. Now move to the center of the foot, the arches, and you're going to not, don't let the arches collapse. Keep the foot and alignment and keep way on the outer edge of that foot.

As you roll. Roll [inaudible] they're going to go, oh my God, Kathy Ross Nash can be nice and good and now go to the heel. She turned 50 and look at what happened and reach good on that heel. Massage that heel. Good. I feel nice, Colleen. It's payback for all the torture just to this the entire time. What do you mean? There were 30 minutes of them rolling their feet and go back and all the way forward. And all the way back and all the way forward, keeping the alignment of the hip, the knee, the ankle, the center of the foot, and reach, lengthen and reach and lengthen and reach.

Now this is called the Jerry Lewis. You're going to lift the outer edge of the foot. Coleen's like I like this one. Bring your knees together and you're going to roll and you're going to get that inner part of that arch and massage that which probably feels good now cause we were working that a lot. So the more you lift the outer edge of the foot, the better off you are. That's it. And then you're going to go the heels, the soles of the feet together, and the only you're gonna roll is feel that little bone that comes out.

You're going to not roll on that bone, but roll from that bone back. So you're going to place the soles of the feet together just like we did. So you're gonna lift those, that's it. And you're going to roll on that little part. Now don't let the feet separate.

Press them together so that the inner thigh right is engaged. Yes. So you're connecting that rep all the way up. Up, up, up, up, up. Good. Let's go back to the first one. This time, let's have our knees together and let's go a full roll with our knees together. That's it.

Same thing that we do on the foot corrector, right? Yep. Press, press, watch of the toes. Don't separate. Good. And watch. See how they flip up when you come, let them pour over that bar. There you go. Good. So that's going to be that same alignment when you're doing your abdominal series that the toes aren't going to do their own thing.

They're going to be part of the action. Good. And now Jerry Lewis, Neisha, that pole rolls street. Good. And so the fee together, that back part of the heel, good. Take your poll, place it off to the side. You're going to cross your legs, you're going to spread your toes and you're gonna bring your fingers all the way through the toes. You're gonna hold onto the ankle and you're going to do a nice big hold that ankle circle.

And lead with the Pinky toe and draw the pinky toe in and circle with that pinky toe. That's it. And up and reverse. Circle up an n circle. Good. Circle up and [inaudible] in. Now flex the foot, push. And then take your hand here and drag it back.

Make sure that it's not going forward and back, right, that it stays in alignment. Push down right in alignment and pull it back. And watch that calling air you go, press down. Now keep it in alignment as you pull it back because it likes to be naughty. Pull back. Good. And just take your foot and shake it.

So hold right here and just shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake. Like we shake our hands, we shake our feet. Good other side. Ah, now I'm waking up, spread all the way through, inside up. Pinky toe down and ring it around. All the way up, all the way slower. Feel every point of that joint and support it right above the ankle. Good. And reverse it down in, up, down, in, uh, down in, up good flex, push point. Drag flex.

Try to keep everything in alignment just like you were pushing on the foot corrector and drag flex, push point, drag good. Hold onto the art and give it a nice shake. Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake and beautiful. Step off.

Having done every Mat class with Kathryn Ross Nash, one has to conclude that this Lady is the Romana Classical Queen of Variations on the Mat.
The two Ladies demonstrating made it look effortless and are outstanding Pilates practitioner's.
