Another excellent class Niedra. I feel great.

Hello Niedra:

May I ask you a couple of questions please. I try to be a Pilates purist and seek out the detail from the original work. So my questions are not disrespectful, just an attempt to establish purity.
In the Side Kick Series - Inner Thigh Lift - you cue to take both legs from the normal obtuse angle and place them to an almost straight line position. Is this positioning of the legs a Classical position ?
The transition exercise whereby you come up and sit back onto the heel, body upright and hands behind your back,elbows slightly bent, and squeezing shoulder blades, and elbows together, and clasped behind your back. Then you roll forward head toward the mat and reach the arms up high behind. Is this a Classical exercise?
Thank you very much.

excellent! like it was made just for me...THANK YOU!

Wow what a great class, so glad I found it this morning. I really needed this between days of moving furniture. Thank you!

great class, really enjoyed it. Got my achy stiff back moving!! this class is going in my favourites!!!!

Hi Lorna, so glad you felt good from this class.

Nice 1/2 class.

Really very very very nice, thank you

Hi Niedra. I have been doing your beginners classes level 1 and found some level 1/2 but is there a sequence that can be followed. I like the way you have a similar aged man to me in the class rather than loads of very agile ladies. Keep well.

it is more complicated Matt when we move to intermediate and advanced material as bodies are different and  to progress someone is very personal, depending on strength, flexibility coordination and spinal integrity.
