15 MIN EXPRESS PILATES WORKOUT || At-Home Mat Pilates (Moderate) 

Is the beginner workout in the room with us right now? 👀👀😭

Your workouts are honestly the only ones that feel good to me...like they are just so calming yet challenging and effective, and i can stick to them

day two of trying pilates and I am DESTROYED, I have never tried it before, it's soooo good. Trying to get back in shape after neglecting my body for the past year, thank you Nicole for the help!

Day 1 of starting Pilates and I didn’t realize how hard this would be😭 halfway through my legs were burning! I’m going to keep doing this workout until it gets easier for me

I have never in my life enjoyed exercise. I'm autistic and have adhd. I've always struggled not only to be engaged but to enjoy the workout itself. Until now. THANKYOU Nicole for all you do. I've never in my life enjoyed moving my body, feeling my strength grow and sticking to it. I really am grateful for creating a workout that I'm confident to try and not be embarrassed to workout at home. I can't really quite explain it but just thankyou. ❤️

It's always so humbling when you point out this was a begginer express class at the end 😂😂 god, I'm in bad shape haha

I’ve done some of Nicole’s intermediate classes and found this just as hard! If you are a beginner, this is tough so don’t give up!!

OMG, I am a beginner in pilates and this is definitely not beginner friendly, but I love it ❤

Please do more beginner-friendly! I am a couch potato and this intensity is just about right for me. Thank you!

First day of Pilates 😮 this did not feel like a beginner 😂. But I stuck to it and plan on doing it consistently

Ok this was my first time EVER doing Pilates and this was definitly NOT beginner friendly omggg. But it felt really goood!!! I'll try really hard to continue exercising a bit more!

This is perfect for a busy day. Short but super effective. Thank you, Nicole 🥰

I loved this! I want more like this. I would love if you did a 30 day Pilates challenge type thing! I’m sure everyone here would also!

Been practicing pilates for 20 years, and you are by far my favorite. A great instructor knows how to condense a full body workout in such a short amount of time. Thank you for being you

Perfect way to come back to workout while recovering from a 4-day fever. 😌 Even when being at an intermediate/advance level, it always feels nice to do beginner level and focus on breathing and have a good control

Felt so tired and didn't want to work out at all. Decided to just look at your videos to see if any motivated me and saw this one. Perfect for a tired day when I just needed to get my body moving!

I felt this everywhere!! I thought that I was working out doing abs and legs exercises properly. But dang!! Pilates does humble you. I had to rest a few times on the legs portion. The abs and the side planks weren’t that bad but I felt it so bad. My whole body feels so much better after a few minutes. Feels like I can get back to actually feeling better at working out. Thank you! I will do this everyday and challenge myself to finishing the whole workout without resting. Btw if anyone is wondering, I am currently trying to get back into shape after two back to back pregnancies. It’s been 15 months postpartum. I will update y’all on my journey. I will actually do this workout everyday. Current weight: 165lbs 08/29/2024 5”2’

I’ve been doing Pilates every single day for a moth solid. It’s getting a lot more comfortable as my form improves but this workout still DESTROYS me! Especially the “running” bit. Amazing workout, thank you Nicole!

Thank you so much, Nicole, for your wide selection of pilates workouts. No wasted time but no rush either. I do one each morning. Challenges me. Your direction and voice are impeccable.

We need more of those 20-25 minutes ones with beginner options! Great workout as always ❤️

That was amazing! I wasn't expecting that much workout in only 15 minutes! Seriously impressed!

I have tried following along to many different videos for yoga/pilates and when I came across your playlist, I knew yours were the ones for me. I love how calm you talk us through each move into the next and the calming music is the best. I feel so strong and empowered after each video. Following along with you has really made me a happier and healthier version of myself and I thank you so much for your amazing work. I get a little emotional at the end of each video, really feeling the workout but also the power behind the practice. Thank you so much for allowing me to gain my knew happiness within myself.

WOW!!! I am a beginner at pilates and this was my 2nd last beginner workout. At first, I would just skip a lottttt of the exercises in the videos. But today I completed this whole 30 mins class and I'm feeling sooo good. Thank you so much Nicole!

Just what I needed! It's the first day of that time of the month for me, and I was feeling like my body needed movement, but nothing too lenghty or intense. Thank you Nicole!

Day one trying pilates after neglecting my body for like 3 years. I am only halfway througg and sweating! This is such a good workout, I can tell already. I seriously realize how kickbutt this is

Day 1: hurt a little but wasnt that bad Day 2: burns more than yesterday 😮‍💨 but still not horrible, super sweaty tho! Day 3: realllyyy felt the burn in my legs today but it's worth it 🔥 Day 4: really was breathing heavy today! Day 5: my legs were burninggg during the lunges Day 6: feels like my legs are getting stronger! Day 7: my butt was burningggg Day 8: donee Day 9: had to take a 30 second break doing lunges bc my legs were burning so bad!! but i did it Day 10: doneee Day 11: doneee Day 12: doneee Day 13: doneee Day 14: 2 weeks done!! 🎉 im going to stop updating daily but i will be continuing to do these exercises and will come back with an update in a month! UPDATE: okay it's been a little over a month! I'm sorry to disappoint, but i haven't seen a drastic change so far. My legs feel stronger, but I think my body looks the same as when I started. Also the workout itself is still pretty difficult. I'd say if you're aiming for a month, keep at it! Maybe do it twice a day for faster results 🤷🏼‍♀️ (I do it once a day)

I've been using your videos to work out for a little over a week now, I decided to try every beginner's video and this was my first. After coming back to this video to see how much I've improved I'm beyond happy!!!

i'm on my periods and it's day 3. actually my belly hurts a bit and i was worried about the aching of it. but your workout it's so gentle for the belly bottom, i was actually suprised! now i'm feeling energetic and toned, i really like this workout! such an amazing opportunity to save the movement on your periods! thank you Nicole, sending big love for you and your home

Love this short & effective workout after losing my routine while traveling for a week. Just the right balance of challenging but not too stressful on my stiff muscles. Thank you Nicole!

wow, muscles are really burning yet the workout is so calming and filled with positive energy! thank you for your class! that's exactly what i needed!

I never ever enjoy workouts and u actually enjoyed this!!! I wasn’t able to finish because it was actually quite hard and I had also done a workout prior to this but I will definitely keep doing these and try to finish it!!! Day 2: I finished it!! Definitely was a bit harder at the end but I did it Day 3: definitely still difficult but I actually see myself looking forward to working out and my form has gotten better Day 4: some of the workouts are feeling easier and I OVERALL FEEL BETTER

This is not beginner friendly..... Currently crying

i have a very hectic schedule for a couple of months now due to long working hours but i still am able to get in some exercises due to your videos, even if it is just 15 minutes! the best part about your workouts for me is how you guide inhaling and exhaling incorporating breathwork that helps with my mental health as well! even just doing 15-minute workouts almost everyday for a month now has left me feeling so much stronger and with increased muscle definition

Hi Nicole, please add more 15m videos, these are excellent to do before work, Thank you, I love your videos❤️

I started doing pilates four days ago, my legs feel absolutely wrecked but also super awesome, I've noticed that pilates seems to be a bit heavy on lower-body workouts so I'm going to find something else (like weights or something idk) for upper body. This was awesome!! I feel fantastic and ready for my day 💪

Definitely didn’t feel beginner friendly, but I modified my through. You are very aspirational to watch!

I love how you are the one counting and not showing how the time counts down. I always felt so stressed but this workout was the only one that made me feel good❤❤

One of my favorite full body workouts that’s actually refreshing and tough! 🍃

Day 1 5-15-24 This was super hard! Going to do this every other day until it’s easy. Goal is to do it at least 30 times. Day 2 5-17-24 still super hard. Day 3 5-19-24 I feel it getting slightly easier to keep up. The side planks are the worst for me tho. Day 4 5-21-24 Done still not easy. Day 5 5-22-24 A day early today because I won’t have time tomorrow. Seeing little improvements 😊 Day 6 5-26-24 Got a little off track with the weekend but still going strong. Side planks are getting easier 💪🏽 Day 7 5-28-24 my form is getting better. Day 8 5-30-24 so tired.

These workouts really help with my workout routine! It’s so relaxing and I enjoy the way you talk and motivate me throughout the exercises! ❤

Day 7 of Pilates complete!!!🤗💘I’m doing 30 days of Move with Nicole Pilates videos, I try to get in 45 mins of Pilates every day. Today I did a 30 min video and ended it with this 15 minute one. I have never done Pilates before but I do have a background in strength and flexibility but as a beginner I still DEFINITELY struggle sometimes which I actually enjoy because I know my strength is increasing!!! So wish me luck everyone I’m already seeing changes in my appearance 💗(oh also I’m doing some light strength training with dumbbells a few times per week)

I feel like this was a good video to start pilates! Definitely more tiring than my previous workouts but I know this is gonna male me feel so good in the long run

My first time ever today! Am feeling a little under the weather but I pushed through this lovely routine thank you

Love having these shorter workouts on a day when I’m either super busy or have already been quite active and don’t have much left. Great class!

Thank you. Just love your classes Nicole. Always fresh and inspiring, yet clearly rooted in classic Pilates, perfect!

these videos have really got me back into my game i had 2 very big knee surgery’s and i was an athlete before i was injured so i have felt so useless not being able to use my body how i used to but these videos really have helped me, being able to be active when i’m still gentle on my body is great thank you for these great videos!!❤

I loved this Pilates quickie! Such a good workout for the glutes/legs & abs! THANK YOU!

Doing this with my daughters and they finally have a workout they like. It's quick and effective. A great way to get kids into pilates which to me is the epitome of exercise ❤️ thank you 😍😘

Thank you so much Nicole! I’m going to do this workout right now!

I found this a wonderful and YES a difficult workout. I have decided to stick with beginner workouts at this channel. So grateful for your work here, Nicole! You are an immense force for health and good all over the world!

I've participated in about 8 of your videos. Thank you! I am in my late 40's and not in shape and I want to build strength. I did this one today because I didn't have as much time but all your videos go by so quickly. Thank you for your content!

Love this one. I’m exhausted with 4 kids and I do tons of walking. This was the right amount of intensity ❤

I love how fast this is! It not only goes well with a time managed day but also really works well with the entire body! Thanks so much for sharing!

im not even in bad shape after my outdoors internship this summer but god this really works my body 😭

Hello Nicole. I dodnt workout few months. This was now my first workout anfer the long time, and I almost cries, because, I felt like I cant handle it, but your words move me forward, and I really enjoyed this pilates class. Thank you so much. This is my new start and I am so proud I handle it so well. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

First timer here! I'm 5 minutes in and boy oh boy.....

I tried it the first time today, after not having worked out in a long time, but I loved it. it was really hard for me but I am happy I moved my body today! Thank you for this workout

Kocham, kocham, kocham!❤ Dziękuję Nicole za Twój wspaniały kanał. Jesteś wspaniała ♥️

Beginner friendly?? Darling I'm GAGGED. I LOVE THIS❤

I love how you get right in to the workout

loved it:) my second time pilates. so much better than normal workouts!

I did this workout the first day after testing negative & feeling I had more energy after Covid, and absolutely loved it! I even have sore obliques today from the side plank work😁 thank you as always Nicole💕

This is my first day and i found out that i am very unfit and chose all the easy options 😅 But it usually goes like that when i start working out. Im sure it will get easier soon

Very calming! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more.

This was harder than I expected, but it was such a fun flow. I'm new to your channel, but I'll be subscribing, and looking forward to more.

BEGINNER FRIENDLY WHERE

I have a broken toe and can’t do my normal work outs so I found this video and have been doing the floor portions almost daily. It’s been totally amazing and getting me in better shape than I was before I broke my toe.

Fantastic workout! Really useful stuff! Absolutely loved it! Keep up the great work! :)

Great work out! It’s my first time trying Pilates and it was def challenging that being said I’m motivated I’m planning on doing this everyday until I’m strong enough to move on to a diff work out

Loved this! I started pilates a few weeks ago and decided to try out your channel. I love how you gave alternatives and challenges! I was really able to push myself and still have fun

I am 5’6 currently weighing 66kgs…. I started doing this workout from 28 June, everyday.. I will come back to this comment after a month and I’ll let ye all know 😊

Absolutley loved this workout! Short but effective! Definitley coming back! 🎉

another masterclass

Best intro to Pilates I’ve experienced. I’m fit but I dislike Pilates and I liked this.

I'm really enjoying this workout, I'm a beginner and tried your intermediate session before this one and realised how unfit I was. I love how your video's are consistent, professional and visually calming. Looking forward to trying more workouts. Thank you

First class ever and I feel so good about it! ❤ thank you! 🙏🏼

I'm 14 and I have skinny fat, I've been doing this for 3 days and I feel great! My tummy looks a little toned already

Ich wünschte ich könnte jedesmal ein Like da lassen, wenn ich die übungen gemacht habe. Hift mir sehr gegen Verspannungen im Rücken.

Great way to start back my Piltes routine after nearly a month of inactivity. Thank you.

I loved this, and I love the options. I was able to option 3 for the hundreds but had to stick with option 1 for the side planks. Wonderful, wonderful stuff, Nicole. Thank you!

today was going to be a very busy day and i wasnt gonna be able to attend my workout class or go to the gym…im so glad i had the option to do one of your vidéos, Nicole! Youve always kept me motivated to workout even when i dont have the time! I am extremely grateful for your channel 🫶

This was great. I feel like the pace for most beginner classes is too slow, and I never really feel that "just worked out" sensation when I'm done. This was a challenge and I definitely wasn't able to keep up 100%, but wow am I feeling a good burn!

This is NOT beginner friendly at all. I swear you gave me a glute cramp within the first 5 minutes of the workout. at least switch sides every few exercises.

This is one of the most difficult morning practices I had lately. It appears simple yet my body feels sore all over. ❤😅 Keep it up! 👍

I didn’t have a lot of time today and this express class was wonderful. Thank you!!

Love the variations you added to suit your level of comfortability 🎉 thoroughly enjoy your classes 🫡💗

as a teen starting pilates for sports and just being healthier, I love your workouts. I go to equinox but your workouts are great for the days I don't go

Thank you! Especially for your warm comments during exercises! I decided to start doing pilates :)

WOMAN R U TRYNA KILL ME

Hi Nicole I really enjoy your beginner Pilates. You explain the moves very clearly and include enough of a challenge at this level to make it worthwhile. Thank you❤

definitely one of my favorite workouts!

Resuming my daily pilates with Nicole after almost a month of being unable to stick to my morning routine due to various obstacles. It feels great to be able to slowly ease back into it. Let's gooooo!

As a beginner, this was a perfect pace for me!! Love it. Doing it everyday

Love that it's less than 20 min for a quick workout, can do 2x a day, thank you 🤟

It is definitely not beginner friendly

Love love love 👌 floor pilates is definitely my new fave workout and just a reminder of how the best workouts is keeping it simple 💪 thank u for this workout and looking forwards to more 🙌

I strongly agree in that this not beginning friendly. Been doing pilates sinse Middle school and Im an adult now recovering from a surgery. But it deff is a good beginner to intermediate work out so thank you for that to the instructor!

I've been doing the beginners series and this is the hardest but still so good! I can't get enough of the beginners series.

Was it easy? No. But the word beginner doesn’t mean easy work out, it means moves that are less advanced. In my opinion this was a perfect beginner class😊

Wonderful way to start my day! Thank you so much, Nicole 😍
