When Joseph Pilates created his method it was first designed on the Mat. Yes, Pilates is now done on a whole host of special equipment but in the beginning, there was just the mat. The mat is how I fell in love with Pilates and it also is a great way for anyone to enjoy a Pilates practice without having to leave their own home or break the bank.

For almost ten years I taught public mat Pilates classes in LA. I taught elite runners on the beaches of Santa Monica, CA. I taught Pilates for children, yogis and everyone in between Santa Monica and West Hollywood several times a week. Then recently due to traveling to lead Pilates retreats around the world, I had to hang my public Pilates mat up. It was the hardest thing for me to do. I love every one of my students. But, after ten years my students were no longer just in the town of LA. They were all over the world!

As sad as it was to roll up my mat when one door has to close sometimes a barn door and a few windows open! Because now I have three awesome ways to enjoy Pilates mat with me from wherever you are. Seriously, wherever you are!

Are you ready? Grab your calendar and let’s rock out on the mat together!

Weekly: Tuesday 2 pm -Thursday 2 pm pst Join me for a  new 30 min mat class for all levels. We will work the entire body in each class. Each class has a theme or intention we are diving into. Most are without props but if they have a magic circle, Thera-band, weights or ball and you find yourself prop-less no worries. Props are only a suggestion and not necessary to enjoy a great workout.  Sign up for next week’s class here!

Anytime: It’s literally in their name! PilatesAnytime.com has two of my mat classes for the more advanced Pilates practitioner. Enjoy this more intermediate to advanced class here or my latest advanced class here and use LLOGAN for a free trial.

Globally: Join me on a retreat and not only will we do lots of Pilates you will leave with your own Pilates practice. Yep, you’ll be able to teach yourself a Pilates workout for your body anywhere you are. Check out my next retreat here.

Join me weekly, anytime or anywhere!

LET'S DANCE - Transitions Are Exercises Too!

Online Mat & Reformer Pilates Class Descriptions:

Have you ever wondered why there is an order for the mat and reformer? Our Pilates practice can have an element of cardio, stamina, and endurance. How? By dancing with our mat and reformer. Knowing the order will turn our mat and reformer into our dance partners, so that our practice today can be more engaging and help you get more out of the session.

This will also be good for our cognitive function by memorizing the order. Knowing what comes next can help prepare the mind and body to connect the exercises so you can see how one exercise builds to the next exercise, as well as see repeating shapes so you can always return to a previous, fundamental exercise so you can continue dancing through today’s workout.

Ready to dance through your workout today?

See you in class,
Christine

    SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST

    Online Mat, Reformer, Tower/Cadillac & Wunda Chair Pilates Class Descriptions:

    In Pilates, we always focus on quality over quantity. That means paying attention to form, shape, control, and connection in every rep. It is not only about how we set up and start strong, it is also about how we finish.

    This month, let’s bring awareness to finishing strong. Make your last rep just as strong as your first, maybe even saving the very best for last. Do not throw away those final moments of work. On equipment, the springs will tell you if you are in control. How quietly can you close them? When moving without springs, notice if there is a drop, plop, or lean. That feedback shows you how strong and connected you really are.

    Start strong. Finish strong. You are strong.

    Let’s save the best for last to wrap up 2025!

    Props needed:
    Mat: no props
    Reformer: balance pad, pole, and squishy ball for some of the exercises
    Tower/Cadillac: no props
    Wunda Chair: for 1 exercise (or go closer to the wall): reformer long box or a physio ball

    See ya in class,
    xx-LL

    BREATHIN

    ONLINE MAT, REFORMER, TOWER/CADILLAC & WUNDA CHAIR PILATES CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:

    Joseph Pilates was big on breathing!

    However the topic is from Ariana Grande song "Breathin" - a love song to her breathing: "Some days, things just take way too much of my energy, I look up and the whole room's spinning - You take my cares away!"

    A lot of exercises do not have an instruction around breath. In this month´s workouts, we’ll focus on using our breath to find strength, connection and flow. Enjoy and remember to have fun!

    Props needed:
    Mat: none
    Reformer: none (just Box, Non-slipperly pad & Pole)
    Tower: none
    Chair: none

    See ya in class,

    SUCH A TEASE

    ONLINE MAT & REFORMER PILATES CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:

    Teaser is probably one of the most photographed exercises in Pilates. Which makes people think it's a "peak pose." But, it's anything but! It's simply another layer to your Pilates practice. This week we will acknowledge how each exercise contributes to your ability to do Teaser (someday) and then how Teaser teaches you where to get curious in your practice.

    On the Mat we will use light weights for one round of Teaser as they can be helpful for those still adding into their practice.
    No props on the Reformer.

    See you in class,

    SPRINKLE IN SOME MAGIC!

    Online Mat & Reformer Pilates Class Descriptions:

    Tis the season in which magic is added to just about everything.

    So why not sprinkle some magic into our Pilates practice as well!?! In this week's mat and reformer workouts, we’ll add a little something to each exercise. Sometimes is doing it differently, sometimes it will be an extra challenge. Whatever is added to our movement, enjoy the magic of YOUR practice!

    Props needed:
    Mat - Magic Circle and pole
    Reformer - Pole

    See you in class,

    UP, UP, & AWAY

    ONLINE MAT, REFORMER, CADILLAC & WUNDA CHAIR PILATES CLASS DESCRIPTIONS:

    We are all going to feel like Super Humans after this month!!

    Whenever I’m in a hard exercise (for me) where I’m holding myself up with my arms and reaching my legs away I picture myself with super human strength!!! I can do ANYTHING! It makes me smile and helps me stay STRONG.

    This month our exercise is Up Stretch and when you think about it - reaching your legs away and staying strong over the carriage may feel a lot like flying!

    We’ll be focusing on stabilizing our strong cores while staying equally balanced in our arms and legs. We are giving you some amazing building blocks by merging strength and stretch in all directions. You are going to get a little bit of everything that you can use to connect to your Up Stretch (and even your Roll Up and Knee Stretches Off).

    Chair: Please have a foam roller and a balance pad available. We are going to challenge your balance safely.
