Yes yes yes! Thank you for really going through through the concepts slowly and thoroughly. So many beginner videos jump in to things without a proper explanation or introduction of the fundamentals that are so necessary. So many people are doing Pilates by going through the motions and choreography without focus or concentration or connecting mind with body, and that’s sad. I can’t wait to see what you have planned for the rest of the beginner series.
Thank you for this! Huge fan of going back to the basics and reinforcing a strong foundation. I know it's still early in the series, but I want to take a moment to thank you for your time and effort making these videos for us - and not just this series in particular, but all of them. Since finding your channel, I've been able to connect with myself in a way I never thought possible before. Pilates became an act of self care and a bit of an art form/science, not just a way to burn extra calories or "tone up" parts of myself I used to not like. Your passion in what you do, your professional yet down to earth attitude, and your dedication to your craft are all truly amazing. You're knowledgable yet approachable and market your business in - from what I've seen - ethical ways. You teach in a way that gives grace to not only others but yourself as well, which is extremely rare and admirable. I feel like I'm just going on a rant and making it weird, but. I'm a sentimental person haha. Sorry. Loved this one and looking forward to the rest of the series
Wow. This is a really helpful lesson. I went to my first Pilates lesson last week and I just couldn’t process all of the information.. inhale, engage, exhale and lower leg etc etc. I was concentrating so much on the breathing cycles that I wasn’t hearing anything else and just couldn’t keep up. I haven’t been looking forward to my next lesson. I decided to look on you tube for total beginner instruction. I’m so glad I did because I eventually found your lesson which helped me with everything so clearly, calmly and at a pace I could follow. I’m hoping I can find the follow on videos in order as this first video has got me very excited to learn more. If I can then I will be subscribing for sure. Im very grateful to you for excellent instruction. 🙏
Thank you Margaret for this video! I love your detailed and thorough instructions. I also noticed that you improved a lot in your teaching compared to vides you made 2 years ago, which is amazing. I followed your guidance and could feel my body expand and contract thorough breathing! I feel sense the 'flow' of my body almost, and this sensation of being in touch with the rhythm of my body is magnificent!
