Argh - I really wanted to like this as I often find my lower back is tight & sore, but I found lying on my side really uncomfortable on the side of my upper thighs/hips. This made the exercises around the 9min mark impossible, causing me to stop in frustration. I don't know how to modify the position to make it do-able - or why that position is so sore/uncomfortable. But lying on my side hurts! I guess as a Pilates newbie I also struggled a bit with working out exactly the movements and the feet angles - seeing what she's doing mostly from a front view doesn't give you an idea always of the exact direction of the movement. Any ideas on what to do if simply lying on your side is painful? It felt like there was a tight muscle(?) or something that didn't enjoy the pressure being put on it.

Thanks! I was uncertain of where to place my legs. This uncertainty arose several times. I was particularly unsure of what "in line with your sits bones" means when you're on your side on the mat. Perhaps if Liz had on lighter colored leggings it would be easier to tell how much her legs were bent. Neck or back injury seemed like a possibility. I'll try this again (carefully), and see whether clarity develops for me.

Loved this! Liz is awesome and hope to see more from her! More pilates please! Thank you!

More challenging then I expected

Ouch that worked different muscles 😯 be great to have a few foundation sessions 😊

I haven't done pilates in years! This was good 😊 i hope to see more pilates 😃🥰

This was a great workout! Didnt realize Pilates could be such a “pain in the butt”..The best ways possible 😎 this was a nice challenge!

I have started pilates again lately and I cannot be happier that FWFG is covering pilates now🫶🏼

I loved this! I’m surprised by some of these comments, they’re disrespectful. I would like the instruction slowed down a bit as well, but the class was nicely structured and I LOVE this instructor’s warm vibe. I look forward to the next pilates session. Remember that yoga was a struggle for you the first time you tried, your wrists probably hurt and you felt confused. Let’s bring that same humble beginner’s mind to pilates and trust that our own strength will grow! I can’t wait for more.

Loved this! Great intro to pilates for me.
