~ Exercise Band Enhancements ~ Placing the Band a ~ 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.

🦶Eve Gentry’s Snaking Feet🦶 1st Generati 🦶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 🔥 #pilatesfundamentals #prepilates #pilatesprep #openyourhips #hipopenerstretch #hipopenerslove #hipopenerpose #hipopener #hipopeners #gluteworkout #glutegains #glutegain #glutegains🍑 #hipflexorstretch #hipflexorstretches #evegentry #pilateselder #pilateshistory #pilatesbossqueens #pilatesinspiração #pilatesinspo #pilatesforseniors #pilatesforlife #sidelyinglegseries #loveyourhips #pilatesclassico #pilatesclássico #workyourbuttoff #jillianhesselpilates #historicalpilates

~Kathy Grant’s Ribcage Arms~ I’ve taken this ~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. #kathygrant #ribcagearms #scoliosisawareness #scoliosisexercise #shouldermobility #shouldermobilityexercise #wallexercises #pilatesathome #wallpilates #standingexercises #corecontrol #polepilates #bodyalignment #bodyawareness #bodyaware #pilatesalignment #spinalalignment #backstability #pilateschallenge #pilatesforlife #adoreyourcore #pilatesbar #yogalates #yogalateslove #pilatesandyoga #jillianhesselpilates #kathygrantpilates #kathygrantslegacy

I’ve borrowed ribcage isolations from a Jazz Dance Warmup!
