Roll Up on the C-Shaper
Pilates Roll Up on the Mat is not easy! It’s one of the most challenging exercises and one of the most foundational. Use the Pilates C-Shaper to rock your future Roll Ups on the Mat! Not only will you discover where you tend to round from. But you will also get the strength and connections needed to hit your Pilates Mat practice. The C-Shaper Roll Up will not only strengthen your Mat Roll Up it will also impact your Teaser and more!
Focus on the legs hugging and arms pulling onto your back as you round.
Lay into the C-Shaper with your legs as straight as you can. Press your heels into the mat while hugging your legs tight together. Place yourself in the C-Shaper where you have the longest round shape. Not so low you’re sinking. But not so high you can’t get your entire back to pull back. Reach your arms from your upper back (if needed can use your hands on your legs to assist).
Pulling your center back into the C-Shaper begin to round up and over your legs. Notice if you pulled your shoulders forward to do it. Then begin to round back into the C-Shaper. Lower back should touch the C-Shaper before your upper back. Repeat.
