Starter Pilates for Newbies

Pilates builds core strength, improves posture, and eases tension in your body, but it can be intimidating to start. This five-week course gives you a clear, beginner-paced place to begin.

What you'll get:

• Seven guided videos: a welcome, five progressive workouts released weekly, and a wrap-up. You’ll learn the basic exercises, your powerhouse, opposition and length, and the breath, then bring it all together in a final flow.
• Instruction from Elaine Entenza, a 25-year Pilates teacher, at a true beginner’s pace. You get the foundations of the method without the cost or scheduling of an in-person studio.
• Lifetime access, so you can keep doing these workouts long after the five weeks are up.

Disclaimer: Built for beginners and anyone who wants to understand the basics of the Pilates Method. If you have a weak low back get your doctor’s OK. Most weeks need only a mat; Week 3 calls for a small towel and a strap or belt. This is general fitness education, not medical advice. Consult your physician or physical therapist before beginning any exercise program.
