~ Single Leg Balance & Stability Challenge ~ I’

~ Single Leg Balance & Stability Challenge ~

I’m using the Gondola Pole as an aid for this Wunda Chair exercise, performed 3 different ways:

1- Standing Leg Bent 5-10 reps
2- Standing Leg straight 5-10 reps
3- Balanced up on the toes of the Standing Leg 5-10 reps

Notice how the plumb line, or center of balance, of the standing leg shifts from bent, to straight, to up on the toes. Be sure to keep your hips level!

This exercise is part of my Active Aging program with @pilatesanytimeus

~ Exercise Band Enhancements ~

Placing the Band across the back of your shoulders increases the challenge for Push-Ups. I have a winged scapula on one side, and the Band also gives me proprioceptive feedback if I descend too deeply toward the mat-I can feel if I start winging, & limit my range of motion. I show 2 variations of Push-Up here. The last frame illustrates how to do Hug-a-Tree with the Band. I’m using a medium/heavy purple @dynaband

🦶Eve Gentry’s Snaking Feet🦶

1st Generation Teacher Eve Gentry devised her own series of pre-Pilates Fundamentals, kept separate from her Classical Pilates teaching. Snaking Feet is a terrific exercise to strengthen & tone the deep hip rotators, as well as gluts! It lubricates the hip joint & stretches the hip flexors, as you reach slightly behind yourself up the wall. Be sure to keep your top hip stacked vertically over the bottom. Repeat 3-4x to each side & feel the 🔥

~Kathy Grant’s Ribcage Arms~

I’ve taken this series of exercises to the Wall, instead of supine on the Mat, as I first learned them from Kathy. I’m using a weighted Roll Up Bar, which makes the series FAR more challenging!

The reason I was given this series by Kathy is because I have a double scoliosis, but truly, ANYONE can benefit from them. The object is to keep the back of the shoulders, shoulder blades & ribcage pressed evenly against the wall as you move the bar through space. This series may LOOK boring, or fundamental BUT it isn’t! Thanks Kathy, for being so persnickety with me; I’m FOREVER GRATEFUL for your stubborn pursuit of body alignment.

As Summer draws to a close, it’s hotter than ever in Southern California! What better way to cool off than to head to the Beach? As some of you already know, I soon covered up my cute 👙 with a wetsuit, & plunged into the inviting 🌊😅

Let’s do the “Ribcage Rock”

Here’s an interesting way to warm up on the Reformer, BEFORE starting Footwork. I’ve borrowed ribcage isolations from a Jazz Dance Warmup! Holding onto the Reformer shoulder rests creates a lovely feeling of extra traction on the entire spinal column😄THANKS to Kathy Grant for her famous 🐈‍⬛ #catexercise
