<p>Every time I try Pilates I end up feeling as if I’m in the gym at school being humiliated. It’s too complicated and too hard for me. I’m very happy for all the strong flexible people who can do it but I’m not going to keep getting upset by these sessions - I’m going to be kind to myself and stop forcing myself to do things that make me feel agitated and upset. </p>

<p>I really appreciated the new moves and sequences in this practice. But as someone with naturally tight/closed hips, it was really challenging to create any body shapes and positions that resembled those of Liz. I can't get much spinal movement when I am sitting with my hips in an open position. Just sharing that here in case anyone else feels similarly demoralised. This is just how some of us are built.

<p>Awh this was amazing 😻. I’m really sore after running and this practise was just perfect for my sore back ! Beautiful. Loved how we sent love to someone we know and someone we don’t 💖. A beautiful way to start the day ☘️. Thank you 🙏🏻.</p>

<p>Holy hip flexors! Thank you, Liz! I struggle with lower back pain and am always looking for sessions to help strengthen my core and improve my range of motion. This was lovely, as always. Namaste, FWFG family! 😘</p>

<p>Thank you Liz. I really enjoyed the class though I was unable to sit up once I lowered to supine. In fact I have never been able to sit up from a supine position in my entire life, even as a high school athlete. I think it is more difficult for a man to sit up. Most of my weight is above my hips. Nevertheless I am going to keep at it. I feel a big difference in my core already on day 5 of this Ignite Your Core series. </p>

<p>Thanks Liz for your boundless creativity! This session to me is hope in action! You connected to my playful side, thank you! And the cue to relax the shoulders…made it doable for me! Huge improvement. I love the whole session! This was very helpful for me! I will play with this more, so I can make the roll up almost like second nature! Appreciate this lovely gift! Be well. Always. 💚💙🩵💜 10/23/25</p>

<p>I really liked the combination of core work through stretching, it was great for activation but the stretching also felt so good. I would say there was a significant portion of the exercises I didn’t have the strength to do or wasn’t able to activate my core in so more alternative options would be helpful</p>

<p>So I have been struggling with really bad sciatica issues for a year now and this practice did amazingly with my lower back and buttocks/hips stiffnes. Thank you Liz. 🙏</p>

<p>Thanks for this practice Liz, it would be very helpful to get advice on what to do when unable to complete an exercise - I can't roll up from the floor and am not sure if it is better only to reach the point I can get to and hold there or to use arms to help continue for the full roll up. Thanks</p>

<p>Fabulous practice, Liz! Faved and saved. May you be well too. 🙏</p>
