This short Pilates workout is designed to help you connect to the deep core musculature. This connection is the cornerstone of a successful practice and a healthy injury-free body. No matter what your fitness level is, take 15 minutes to tap deeper into your core and find the mindful body-brain connection that will transform your practice and your body. This 15-minute Pilates workout will teach you to
- engage all of your core muscles (and not just your abs),
- do head floats (ab curls) without strain in your neck and shoulders,
- strengthen your lower back muscles and protect yourself from chronic lower back pain;
- use your core to correct muscular imbalances on both sides of your body.
