Certified instructor description:
Traditional Pilates exercises sequenced in complementary pairs (always a harder move followed by a more basic routine). It's a unique approach that preserves the benefits of Pilates while keeping you energized and motivated. The moves range from familiar classics like "roll-ups" and "swimming" to Pilates-style variations like "standing crisscrosses" and "childs pose push-ups."
The workout has four sets of exercise pairs, each one repeated three times (60 to 75 seconds per interval). Despite the untraditional format, these moves are presented with the usual Pilates focus on form and technique ("it's not how high you can get, but how long..."). ©2012.
