Mind Body Pilates Challenge // Day 9

Posted on by

Hi Beauties!

While Pilates is my main thing, I also love teaching barre workouts. Barre is a great way to change things up while continuing to focus on proper form and efficient movement.

In the Beach Barre Cardio routine, you’ll not only tone and strengthen your entire body, but boost your heart health, improve circulation, and work up a sweat.

Keep your Pilates principles in mind, grab a chair for balance, and enjoy this quick & effective, 15-minute Pilates-barre workout!

Today, we’re focusing on meditation once again! Your Mindfulness Assignment for the day is to find time for meditation. It can be moving or sitting still, 5 minutes or 50 minutes….it’s completely up to you.
