Beth is the best! 👏 Her voice is calm, her instructions are clear, the pace is perfect, the workout is thorough. I love to come back to this routine again and again.
I’ve been rehabbing on a reformer and finally felt strong enough to try my first mat class. It was great and I enjoyed it and appreciate your good cues.
I' used to do pilates some 10 years ago but stopped after my teacher left (could not get used to those who followed). I love this video and the way you gently encourage your students, while explaining that this is just the entrance point for much more complex and demanding exercises. That helps my body remember the moves while not discouraging my mind by too fast a pace. Great lesson!
I love this class! I've done it 3 times now over the last week and a half and I'm already noticing slight changes with my flexibility, and my knee and back pain is better on days when I've done this! This was my first introduction to pilates and I'm really enjoying myself, and I plan on working my way up to your harder classes eventually. Thank you for this amazing video, you've really opened my mind to how good pilates can be!
Thanks, Beth! You’re by far my favorite Pilates instructor on UA-cam! I’ve been doing this class daily for about nine weeks and it’s made a huge difference in my posture, flexibility, and abs. I look forward to it every day! 😊
The first time I did this routine, I made it to 20 min. Then, I started doing other shorter videos and finally I started going to an in-person class. It's probably 2 months later now and I found that this video was too easy😅 That's what I like about Pilates, the progress is very clear and usually doesn't take long.
Even though I couldn't do a lot if the positions where I was balancing on my butt I really enjoyed this session...imma keep doing this until I don't have to take a break. Made it like 25 minutes before I had to stop. Thanks for this! I will be back tomorrow!!
Excellent class for beginners!! Most other "beginners" pilates videos are hard as heck for someone who hasn't exercised in years, but this one, I was (mostly) able to do every move!! Thank you!!
Thank you! I'm on holiday for 2 weeks and this was a perfect replacement to the class I normally attend. Super clear instruction and a great range of exercises. This makes home/remote based Pilates really accessible and easy!
Such a nice way to wake up on a snowy day! I liked the exercise toward the end that wasn't exactly a push-up, but a modified plank half-push up. My arms and abs are really weak and I actually felt them engage this morning. Very exciting!
I love this class. I did Classic Pilates a while ago, and am so happy to find this class. I had some muscle memory, which helped. Your instructions and reminders about breathing were great. Thank you!
Wonderful routine, Beth. Thank you so much. It didn’t feel like 40 mins. I had to use some of your variations for a couple of the exercises but the pace and range is perfect. It really helps to prepare and build up to the movement. Thank you again.
I just downloaded your calendar and this was my first class. The calendar is awesome because each day has the link to the corresponding youtube video. Your explanations are so clear and concise. The class was longer, but it was very enjoyable that time flew. Thank you so much!!
The perfect flow for getting back into pilates. I have a chronically inflamed psoas and this routine felt like it helped rather than hurt it. Thank you!
Loved doing this class today after a few weeks. Couldn't believe it but I managed to do and whole class with ease and stability. My core must be getting stronger. Thanks Beth I love the way you teach 🤗😊
This is a perfect beginners class. I have tried other beginner classes and they were SO hard. This was challenging but more about focusing on positioning, breathing, and movement. Loved it
Hi there! I would like to invite you to start with the 7-day challenge. And yes, I love the Pilates for Beginners series so much, this is the 7-day challenge. Enjoy! ✷✷✷ Sign Up for the FREE 7-Day Pilates Workout Challenge: trifectapilates.com/pilates-workout-challenge/ ✷✷✷
This was a perfect flow for me this morning. I am starting to feel more stability with my leg circles and in every exercise. Its amazing how much more I felt the abs as soon as I started paying more attention to each exercise in details. Thanks!
Beth the verbal details you put in with the movements so helped with the Level one flow i was able to follow along because of your detail. Thank You....very clear. Will visit again.
Thank you so much. This was perfect during this time. You took your tome to explain every movement, every muscle and when to breathe. The breathing! It’s so important to tell us when. Thanks again and God bless 💕
I've been working through beginner pilates videos and this is the first one that feels the most like an actual beginners class! Very motivating and has encouraged me to work on this and your higher level videos as I get there! Thank you :)
Thank you so much for this video. Have wanted to find a pilates channel actually suitable for beginners. Couldn't do all but am committed to building up to this. So glad i found yr channel.
Welcome! As you keep moving with Pilates I know that you'll get stronger. Listening to your body and knowing when to stop is the way to move with your body, progressively building strength and flexibility and that will take you far!
That was exactly what I wanted and needed. Very good balance between strength and concentration. I loved doing this lesson. Your teaching was sublime again ❤
I love how informative and calm you are during the lesson! Very suitable for beginners, I felt energised and calm after. Thank you for reminding how to breathe
Brand new to any form of exercise (only 23 but still out of shape) I’ve tried 4 other videos and thus far the exercises in this one were my favourite! I could actually feel myself working my muscles and your input of how to make things more challenging/ check my form were so helpful! Thank you I will be back for more of this!!
Thank you so absolutely much! I was trying to find something for myself, that I would enjoy for years now. Today I found this video, tried it and absolutely fell in love with it. I will come back! Thank you and good health
You are AMAZING!! I truly appreciate the calendar the workouts are effective and I see incredible results LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Thank you so much Beth!!!!!
Great class thank you . I have only very recently felt inspired to try pilates. i have had a loose yoga practice for years and never felt like i have improved in my posture or flexibility. This is the second pilates class i have done and i feel so much more present in my body and grounded. Thank you
I've been wanting to start a Pilates practice but it's been tough since being home with my newborn. I tried your class today and I thought it was effective, approachable and motivating!! I'm subscribing now for more... excellent video!!
This workout was much longer and incorporated quite a few more movements than I have been doing with you in class so it was both a little more challenging but really enjoyable. Some of the movements pulling both legs up at a seated position really challenged my core stability.
Thank you so much for this class. I did some classical Pilates years ago with Stott (on vhs, oh my lol) and Windsor so I have some familiarity with the exercises. Now I’m getting back into but my low back is sensitive and I’m carrying many extra pounds. This class was perfect for me because it references things I remember, unlike some of the beginner contemporary classes I tried, but it is tailored so I wasn’t attempting things I can’t quite do yet. Just wanted to say thank you so much! I’ve subscribed and will be looking for more here!
Found this really helpful and pleasurable but also felt like I was working, I recently over stretched my hamstrings and now I can't feel any pain when I raise my leg. Thank you very much and I will be doing this class again
I recently overstretched my hamstrings as well and have been doing mat Pilates exclusively for lower body workouts. I definitely need to add this routine into my rotation!
I was afraid by the length, 40! But as always you find a way to keep us safe through the movements, you have the right amount of patience and a lot of knowledge! Thanks for sharing!
I had four wisdom teeth removed this week! I’ve been taking it easy but didn’t want to lose all my gains in my fitness. This workout was great for gentle movement and muscle awareness to keep me on track.
That was a great class. I am in my 60's, so it was hard to do some of the moves, but most of the moves were very helpful and I really liked the pace and explanations.
Thank you for the class. I have been able to enjoy a class in a huge while and truly enjoyed yours. Looking forward to progress with your videos.Thank you so much for posting this.
thank you so much. I have been looking for a routine. this one is perfect. Thank you for pronouncing words clearly, and having a goood sound system. I have watched many videos and I now know the difference. super thanks
Love the way you take me through it step by step telling me what I should be doing. This keeps me concentrated and centred on what I’m doing and time passes so quickly! At the end I feel amazing even if I haven’t managed everything.. I am new to this.
Oh, man, I felt this one early in the morning. It was a great workout. This is one of the longer classes I have ever done I really felt this in my abs. Thanks for a great workout on this snowy day. I really liked doing the side ab lifts, it was a perfect level of challenge to engage everything.
This routine felt very long and more intense, but very enjoyable. From the beginning I was already feeling my core stress as well as my butt bones as I struggle to keep my balance my body weight. Pulling up both my legs was also very challenging because of my balance and weak core. However, I really enjoy laying on my belly and doing the spine variations because it makes me feel my back and breathing. I turned out to be very exhausted after the workout but it feels real good learning to extend my body in steady motion.
Excellent cues, easy to follow - this was perfect for me! ❤ I’m recovering from foot surgery so I’m missing my Reformer class. I can’t put much weight on my foot yet so this was an ideal workout for me. I still can’t get down on the floor so I did the whole thing on my bed. 😂 Thank you so much!

Beth is the best! 👏 Her voice is calm, her instructions are clear, the pace is perfect, the workout is thorough. I love to come back to this routine again and again.
Thank you so much for the kind review. It's much appreciated and I'm so glad that you enjoy the session again and again!
actual real beginner pilates ive made. love it! thank you.
You're so welcome!
I'm recovering from a back injury and ny osteopath recommended mat pilates and this was perfect. No pain! Thank you
Wonderful. I wish that you continue to feel good!!
so happy there are some real traditional pilates videos here!
Glad you like them!
I’ve been rehabbing on a reformer and finally felt strong enough to try my first mat class. It was great and I enjoyed it and appreciate your good cues.
I’ve never personally believed in UA-cam classes. But this one definitely was a back and pelvis healer. I recommend it 100% 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I’m so glad to hear that you liked the Pilates workout!

Really lovely classic Pilates class with wonderful modifications to help the classic mat repertoire work for many body types.
I'm glad you enjoyed the class. I always say customize the exercises so they benefit you.
I missed my live class this morning so I found yours. I was really enjoying it. Thank you so much. That was a beautiful session.
So glad that you enjoyed the session. Recorded classes are a great option when you can't make it to one in real-time.
Thanks, Beth! You’re by far my favorite Pilates instructor on UA-cam! I’ve been doing this class daily for about nine weeks and it’s made a huge difference in my posture, flexibility, and abs. I look forward to it every day! 😊

The last standing position I felt like I was meditating , I felt so relaxed and mindful
That's wonderful
excellent workout---- Thank you Beth!!!
Glad you liked it!!
Hi. I loved the class but I always find push-ups and rolling off and onto the mat challenging !! Thanks
Those are challenging exercises. With continued practice and consistency they get better.
