Over the last 18 years I have worked with thousands of babes just like you to have amazing abs and backsides…. all while feeling freer in their bodies and to combat back pain.
I’ve worked in the tops Pilates and Yoga studios, along with both high end gyms and boutique studios in New York City and San Francisco.  

Now, I’m bringing it right to you.  

  • Quit taking an Uber just to get your ass to class.  

  • Go green and stop driving and flooding the world with CO2 fumes just to get your workout on.

The secret sauce is in resistance.   We’ll be using dumbbells, therabands, and a magic circle.  These small tools will produce the greatest results at a very low cost.  You can get Reformer quality Pilates and I will be using my 15 year background in Pilates to meticulously craft the exercises.

 Tips For The Challenge:

  • Drink LOTS of water- dry heating systems can up your chance of infections. Drink up to keep your immune system strong

  • Eat more plants- aim to get 5 servings of fruits and vegetables in! minimally

  • If you don't have a prop try to sub in another prop or redo any both vides you loved from the day before.

Caution! 

Beginners can always opt to try my Beginner Pilates Series here.  Listen to your body as there will be some advanced progressions.  NEVER push past pain! Leave out an exercise that hurt- you can always skip ahead or modify.  I offer modifications throughout but always err on the safe side:)

Day 7 -Rest Day

Did you know that constant stress can wreck havoc on your workouts?  

Stress can hinder your recovery- making you feel sore longer and lethargic- making it less likely that you’ll hit the mat again. 

How? Stress causes the hormone cortisol to act up and it affects everything from your skin and mood to your heart and digestion, and can leave you feeling like 💩…..If you hustle hard you need to rest!
