Hello everyone, and welcome to today's session. This is a lovely gentle session for everyone when you just want to move a little and create ease in the body. Hope you enjoy it, much love, Rachel ❤
I am new to your sessions- have taken about 12 classes and have already seen improvement in my body and pain (over 60). I am so sorry for your loss and hope the New Year will bring you peace and joy.🥰
Thank you so much for this session Rachel!!! I'm 41 and I've been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my lower back.... Your sessions have made the world of a difference to me... I'm an absolute Pilates fan!!!
I don’t have osteoarthritis but today I woke up with a heavy cold and was feeling stiff all over. I wanted a gentle workout to help me feel better and this was perfect. Thank you.
Dear Rachel Thanks so much for not forgetting us even when life is being hard for you. I am so sorry if you are suffering. It has really helped me to have this class posted live. Thank you. I hope I get to hear when we can meet you live again. Lots of good wishes and gratitude always( not just at this time of year)
I enjoyed that gentle class,suffer from osteoarthritis in my hip ,only mild but seem to be in a lot of discomfort most days, I do lots of pilates to try and help x
Thank you for your videos which are helping us to deal with our aches and pains. We very much appreciate all the work and effort you put into the exercises for seniors and love the variety of exercises and slow pace. Thank you again.
Thanks Rachel! .Let this Christmastime bring ' tidings of comfort and joy ' to you, as to all of us. Keep singing Christmas tunes you love, they have a healing effect !! 🎶🎄🎶🧑🎄😊
Rachael. Merry Christmas to you, Kerwin, and Boo. I hope the holidays are peaceful and comforting. I so appreciate all the work you do on our behalf for our physical and mental benefit.
Dear Rachel, Wishing you the best of holidays and a happy healthy New Year. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. You are my inspiration and my sensei as a go along this Pilates instruction journey.
Thank you for all that you give us!! Your videos have changed my health and routine in significant ways. Much love to you and yours over this holiday season.
Hello Racheal. Hope you and the rest of the followers are doing well. Could you please make a standing and sitting video for osteoarthritis. I have problems in my shoulders, knees and especially my lower back. I also lost alot of weight. So I need to tone my body and build muscle. I'm afraid of doing just any exercise in the event that I may damage my joints further.All physiotherapists seems to recommend the bridge exercise but it hurts my back .Can I do twisting exercises with osteoarthritis in my back . Core and glute exercises while standing or sitting will be highly appreciated .I feel like my glutes drag me down and puts pressure on my back.I thank you and I'll keep on supporting you. To all you guys out there. I no it's painful. But don't only execise once a day.and just sit or lay the rest of the day.Move or stretch throughout the day to loosen those joints. You are all in my preys. ❤❤
Thank you Rachel. This is just what I need as I have very achy muscles first thing in the morning. Mobility is the key. Happy New Year to you, Kerwin and Boo!
Thank you so much for this, it is so beneficial! I have been doing it everyday in the morning and is the perfect start to my day. Love your channel, you are such a positive influence. Merry Christmas!
Hi Rachel. I used to do a lot of Pilates but have become increasingly stiff with osteoarthritis- I can no longer get down onto the floor and getting back up is a real pantomime… After years with varying degrees of pain with oa in my knees, I have now suddenly developed it very painfully in my left hip. Should I start with the standing and sitting exercises and hope I can become more mobile or is there anything else I can try? I am determined to get back my mobility and control the pain without the need for codeine( I can’t take anti-inflammatories.) Thanks for any advice Alison Turner
Hello Alison, sorry to hear yor OA has made it impossible for you tp get down on the floor. With the pain you are having in your hip and knees I would mix between the gentle standing sessions and the sessions in a chair. If you can do the standing work, if it doesn't feel right then do a chair workout instead. What is important is that you don't lose strength in your muscles by not moving so do what you can. With your determination and expereince of pilates I am sure you will get to a better place in your mobility and a reduction in your pain. The key with OA is little and often. you might like to try my gentle ballet class too? Here's the link for you: ua-cam.com/video/dZnTymzsrVU/v-deo.html 🤗
