Pilates! Class 1

Alright, so my first class is over! It was supposed to be a beginner's class, but seemed to be more of an all levels class. There were tons of people there, of all ages, but most of them had already taken a pilates class with the instructor. So the instructor didn't really explain things for the few of us who have never tried Pilates before. In fact, the instructor didn't even show us what was going on - she used some other lady instead who knew what was going on.

Needless to say, the class was....interesting. Of course, it's hard to judge the class off of the first day, so tune in next week to see what my further comments will be! I may also give a pilates dvd I picked up over the holidays a try - if I do, I'll be sure to post about it here!

Hi,

For the pilates, can you do moves leaning on your site? I have had a pump for about a year now and have wondered if it was possible to do a full routine, I think wherever the site was would limit some moves? Like if it was on your hip and you were doing leg raises? I apologize for explaining this so poorly :P

Hi kgracie,

I'm so sorry that I didn't see this sooner! Yes, I have been able to do pilates moves while leaning on my site. I don't put my site on my hip though - so far it's been on my abdomen. Sometimes it will hurt and it's tougher to do, but 99% of the time I've had no problem! Hope that helps, and sorry again!
