At Home Pilates Ring Workout | 40 Minute Full Body Workout | Beginner to Intermediate Pilates

Today’s new video on my YouTube channel is a full body workout using the pilates ring aka magic circle. The ring is a great piece of kit for your home workout - it adds a strong level of resistance to the muscles and is very effective at targeting those hard to reach areas such as inner thigh and upper arm muscles as well as giving you all the usual benefits of a great pilates workout. This session will incorporate both beginner and intermediate exercises to give you a full body, strength workout which may even leave you a little sweaty! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Link in today’s story and full weekly playlist in my bio. Much love, Rachel ❤️

There’s lots to enjoy in this week’s FREE pilates playlist on my YouTube channel. From beginners to pilates explorers you’ll find something new and different to experience. As a long time lover of the method I have seen the joy and sense of achievement it can bring when you allow yourself to play. So dump the idea of getting the perfect pilates body, and embrace the idea of curiosity, of play, of exploration and wellbeing. Your body will change anyway, but it’s more important to change your mindset first. Have fun and give this playlist a go. Much love, Rachel ❤️ Link in bio 🤗

Looking out over the beautiful Welsh countryside from the top of Mount Snowden was a moment of peace I will never forget. You realise how small and fragile we really are and how important it is to reconnect with yourself and the world around you. Nature is a great healer, whether you’re overworked, overwhelmed, coming to terms with a change in your life or just in need of a good rest- nature is the greatest healer. Here’s a snippet of my digital detox

There’s plenty of feel good information to get you moving and feeling more positive. All links in my bio. Until the 17th take good care of yourselves, you deserve to feel good in mind and body.

⭐️NEW PLAYLIST⭐️ in case you missed it, we kicked off this week’s playlist with a simple 15 minute core focused session. Combining simple but highly effective pilates movements to improve core stability, control and function for a strong resilient body. Remember the core muscles are on the front, side and back of the body as well as lower down ( pelvic floor) and glutes and higher up diaphragm. If we breathe better, we move better, and by both tensing and relaxing muscles we become stronger and more flexible- all of which we need to be fit for life.

Each session in the weekly playlist is carefully curated from the 700 sessions I’ve recorded for my YouTube They will encourage your skill, self-awareness and confidence in mastering the most important aspect of Pilates- your own inner trust in what’s best for you. Think of this as a journey of self- discovery which will leave you feeling more positive and more empowered in your movement. It is all FREE. All I ask is you pay it forward - a LIKE, a SHARE, a COMMENT - whatever feels right for you. Hitting the SUBSCRIBE or FOLLOW button would so appreciated as that’s how my channel can grow and help more people find free high quality pilates on YouTube 🤩 Are you Ready to feel better in mind and body? Comment ‘May Week 4’ and I’ll send you the Playlist link. Ready when you are, no rush. 🤗Have a wonderful day, Rachel ❤️

Dear Pilates Pals, Happy Friday!

If you haven't had a chance to drop in yet- I know how busy life can be- then here is the live session from this morning-just completed. I know from experience many women avoid core workouts because of uncomfortable exercises like stomach crunches and you will find none in this session! So no reason not to give it a go when you have time. You'll be suprised how good it feels when you have done it.

Sending lots of love and a reminder to take care of yourself - you deserve to feel good in mind and body.

Much love,
Rachel ❤️
