Thanks Ann! I appreciate your support so much :)
What an awesome chair Pilates workout. I love it❤❤❤! How lucky are we seniors to have somebody like you looking after our well-being!
The toe massage feels very relaxing; it is great for blood circulation to our extremities!
Thanks again Lauren!
Mwah😘!
Wonderful! I'm so glad you love it Bernadette! Thank you for your kind words and support :)
She is so good. 😊
Loved this workout! More chair pilates, please. Thank you!!
My pleasure! So glad you love it!
Even with your gentle Pilates, I receive an awesome, body productive workout. Lauren, you are a genius.
Yay! Thank you Cathy, so glad you got a good workout :)
Who knew you could do so much sitting on a chair! Thank you Lauren!
My pleasure Sandra :)
I used to take Chair Dancing Burlesque and it was very sexy. It taught us that every woman is beautiful & forever sexy. The routines were a bit challenging and we learned new routines ever 2 classes. Always new, unique, and a workout. It was very cool to learn how to be sexier at the age of 58. 😊
Just what I needed this morning! I always feel better after working out with you. Since starting doing more pilates with you I have seen a real reduction of my "leakage" issues. Thank you
Great to hear! I love that you are noticing results :)
Keep up the great work Rosane :)
Always amazed at how many moves you have in your bag of tricks!!
Thanks Lisa, I hope to never be boring :)
You’re still my favorite senior workout! I’ve been working out with you for about 3 years. My flexibility and strength have definitely improved. I loved today’s chair pilates workout! Keep em coming!
Awesome! Thank you so much Shawn :)
My husband and I are enjoying your varied content together. Thanks for keeping it real!
Awesome! Thank you Rebecca :)
I’m limited in my mobility temporarily due to my cast BUT in 3 days it comes off and my plantar fasciitis should be on the road to recovery! LOVE your channel to help me maintain lean and strong at 43. I look forward desperately to get back to full workouts…soon 🎉. Thanks again for another great workout, perfect timing for a chair video! (Also, your side bangs look fantastic on you 😊)
Thanks so much Kelli! I love that you have continued to workout and not use your cast as an excuse!
How do you get surgery for plantar fasciitis? No one’s ever offered me that.
@@Rebelmusedesign Hi there, I had “Plantar fasciotomy” for severe plantar fasciitis. My doctor recommended a podiatrist. My podiatrist determined it was too severe for anything but surgery. This is week 5 and I am pain free and able to walk/workout/run without pain. I wish you the best💕
I now rotate 6 of your videos. FYI I’m 72 and absolutely love them and truly appreciate you. Wishing all the blessings ❤
Wonderful! I appreciate great viewers like you 🤩
I am now doing 4 of your different moves Pilates, yoga etc one a day everyday I had to give up my exercise machines but still wanted to exercise I wish I had found you sooner as I am now 70 I feel great so many thanks to you Love all your tapes
wonderful Moira! Happy to have you working out with me. Keep up the great work :)
@@SeniorShapeFitness now I have found you not going anywhere else
It has been years since I did Pilates. The stretches and movements felt so good. I was amazed at the many moves I was able to do with your guidance. Thank you so so much.😊
Wonderful! You are most welcome Deborah 😀
I think this might be one of my favorite chair routines. Thank you Lauren! Again, I am so happy I found you. I would much rather workout at home at my own convenience than have to go somewhere. I have never enjoyed exercise routines, but I love this and don't mind exercising at all when I tune into this channel. You have changed my life, Lauren, and I am sure there are many who would ditto that! 🥰
Yay! Thank you for your kind words Deb, it’s really nice to hear! Keep up the great work 🤩😍
Update. I went to my dr. appt and as soon as he walked in he said “I can tell you work out! You are my healthiest patient!” This is thanks to your workouts. Thank you again for caring ❤
Awesome Toni! Thank YOU for working out with me, I'm so proud of you :)
@@SeniorShapeFitness thank you
That was great, exactly what I needed this morning. Thank you for incorporating the Kegels!
You bet Maribel! Glad to hear it's a good workout for you :)
Lauren. Thank you so much for your Chair workouts. I will be 60 this year. I had a bone graft surgery on my foot and I am non weight bearing for a total of 10 weeks. 😮 It's be a long 7 weeks. But your Chair exercises for Seniors has been a God send for me. ❤
I'm so happy to hear they have been helpful Donna. New chair video coming in a few weeks! All my best to you and your recovery :)
You recommended this workout when I commented on my spine issues and my doctor’s recommendation to strengthen my core. Great workout! I’m feeling less back pain and I’m definitely more flexible, thanks to both of your workouts. I never thought I could get this strong again. Yay!
Great to hear! I’m so proud of you Kathy and all your hard work 🙌🏻
Good morning from Croatia! I have been a faithful pupil of yours, that then I took this trip and neglected my exercises for several days. With the tours we do there’s a lot of standing and slow strolling which kills my back. I’m in a very small hotel room and this morning I decided I needed Your work out today and this has helped. Now for a hot shower or bath and I’m ready for the hike we have planned for today…. thank you again!
safe travels Ann, that sounds like a lovely trip!! Glad you got a release for your back with this video :)
Great workout! The added foot massage was so good. So lucky to have you, Lauren, Thank you, 💗
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it Teresa :)
Today I crushed garlic in a manual garlic crushed 12 months ago I could not have done this Thank you Lauren on your videos you say ill make you stronger and you have. I started with chair Yoga then chair Pilates now I do chair level up, chair Barre, chair Yoga strength and chair Abs something different everyday I am so much stronger at in my 70s that is amazing, last year I was depressed because I could no longer do Gym work now thanks to you I can exercise everyday ❤❤
Good for you Moira! I’m so proud of you, keep up the awesome work 🤩
I just tried this video out last night and here I am again doing it a second night in a row. Love it!!
Yay! Great job Andrea :)
Another great chair workout! So helpful for me as I’m slowly starting to use my body after an injury.
Glad you enjoyed it Mary! All my best to you on your recovery :)
We deeply appreciate your support.🥰

Oh Lauren, you have no idea how this workout has helped me today!!! Normally I workout moderately everyday, however, this week I've been very ill and haven't been able to do anything. I looked at my liked videos and came to you, I needed something slow and gentle. THIS WAS IDEAL and I'm so grateful I did it to gently introduce my body back to working out. I THANK YOU , VERY MUCH.
You are most welcome Vicki! I hope you feel better soon ❤️🩹
probably one of my favorite
Happy to hear it Diane!
Thanks again for a terrific exercise routine! ❤❤❤
You bet Coleen! Thanks and have a great day :)
Hi Lauren. It's been such a long time! Unfortunately I've been suffering with a terrible bout of shingles and it seems like forever!! Thankfully I was able to get in partvof this workout. I'm working my way back!!!! Thank you so much for this!❤
Hi Lisa! So sorry to hear about your shingles. I’ve had it too, I know how uncomfortable and painful it is. Happy to hear you are on the mend ❤️🩹
loved this chair exercise - starting to feel heaps better 🌟 too
Wonderful! Happy to hear it Sarah :)
Oh, my gosh! This video is WONDERFUL!! I don't understand how stretching on a chair gives my lower abs a workout, but whatever magic this is, I am not questioning, just feeling great!!
Yay! Love that you are feeling great Staci :)
Lovely! Thank you!
Glad you like it! Thanks Michele :)
Love the hips stretches. Lots of good work here.
Glad you like them!
Thank you Lauren. I received a wonderful stretch. I so enjoy your routines. Thank you for all you do!
My pleasure Barbara! So glad you are enjoying my workouts :)
Due to spondylolisthesis, I've been having difficulties with full-body pilates, which I'd done for years before. However I discovered your series of chair pilates and found it absolutely great. Thank you so much, keep up the good work!
That's great Annie! I'm happy to hear you are enjoying my workouts. You keep up the good work as well :)
Thank you I feel really amazing💃💃
Love that Janet!!
Loved this! Just added to my weekly calendar!
Fantastic! Thanks Amy :)
I love to do your more relaxed workouts on days that I am just not feeling it, especially the days after a more intense workout. They give me permission to take it easy without completely slacking off...and bonus I get a good work out still.
Absolutely! Love that you are listening to your body Susan :)
Hi Lauren, I do have arthritis in my left knee useful strengthening exercises at the moment my knee is not too bad with warmer weather but once we get the cold weather it really plays up so I will have to keep up with these strengthening exercises❤️
Yes! Consistency is key. Keep it up Patricia 🤩
Another great one! I'm amazed at how much core work you can do in a chair! Thank you!
absolutely! Glad you like it :)
Love this, thanks so much for what you do!
You are so welcome! I'm glad you love it Carol :)
Great work out on chair for seniors. Pelvic floor strengthening and hips. Highly recommend!
Thank you Thelma, glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! Love this workout as well, thank you Lauren!
So glad! Thanks Dawn 🤩
Great workout, delightful music, thank you👏👏👏👏
Glad you like it! You are very welcome Janet :)
I am really enjoying all the seated workouts as i recover from a broken ankle. Thank you
Glad you like them! I hope your ankle heals quickly and well :)
Thankyou Lauren had a busy stressful day today this was just what I needed to relax and feel good 👍see you tomorrow ❤️🙋
You're so welcome! I hope you have a restful evening Julie :)
I was just going to say that you are a genius for these stretches but I see someone beat me to it . The latter half was really helpful and relaxing! Thankyou
My pleasure Christine! Thanks so much :)
This was so relaxing. I did not sleep well yet wanted some gentle movement and this was perfect for me today ❤
Thank you my dear❤
You’re welcome 😊 Hope you have a good day and sleep well tonight Kelly!
Thankyou so much for your seated videos! I broke my ankle 3 weeks ago and being non weightbearing has created pain in my back, hips and neck. Your videos have been a great help to alleviate my aches and support my mental health.❤
You are most welcome Laurie! So happy to hear my videos have been helpful :)
Hi Lauren, Thanks for this recommendation. I loved this workout, another new favorite. I combined it with another amazing instructors 18-minute chair yoga. Hopefully, if I continue this, my leakage will subside some more please.
You're welcome Paula, I'm so glad you tried it and loved it :)
A very useful and good exercise for my back, legs ,pelvic. Thanks
You are welcome! Glad it's a good workout for you Rosie :)
Another great workout, thanks Lauren, keep them coming!!
You're so welcome! Glad you enjoyed this workout :)
What a nice and gentle workout 💪 😊 thank u didn't think you can do it in a chair too. Easy to follow and you can feel the muscles working 😊
Glad you liked it!! 🤩
My first pilates workout!! Loved it, thanks!
So glad! Thanks for trying it :)
Estuve 10 dias sin poder hacer ejercicios con Ud porque me enferme de Covid.Hoy empece de nuevo con este ejercicio. Gracias.
Glad you are back and feeling better Matilde :)
Loved this workout! Thanks
My pleasure Diana!!
Thank you! I love pilates but at 76 getting on the floor is challenging and standing core work is not as effective as pilates floor work. This chair pilates was a challenge and I could really feel it in my core. What a great routine to stretch and work the core❤️
Great! So glad it’s a good workout for you Loretta 🤩
Wonderful lesson Lauren...good news, my husband is joining me from yesterday, with chair exercises, as he has very sensitive knees (like me)...so feel free to suggest any exercices to workout quadriceps. We both needed....Thabk you VERY MUCH!!!!!! Keep up the amazing work you do for us !!!!!
Wonderful! Love that your husband joined you! When you are ready you can try to use ankle weights. That will help strengthen your quads in a seated position. I also have an entire playlist of knee friendly workouts as well as a video for knee pain. 😀
Thank you so much, I LOVE your Pilates workouts! Have an amazing week 💖
Thank you! You too Kelly :)
Hi Loren - thanks for having suggested I try the standing Pilates workouts, because I decided to give this routine a go, when my MS meant I wanted to exercise from a seated position.
Really enjoyed the whole workout and thought the abs were really quite amazing for moves done from a stumped position 😄🙂Will definitely be doing this again👍
Great job listening to your body Fiona :)
Glad this video worked out well for you!
Loved this video! Keep them coming! 😍
Yay! So glad to hear you love it ;)
Such an amazing instructor!
Thanks so much :)
Perfect workout while I'm recovering from covid this week!
Feel better Gina ❤️🩹
Loving these chair workouts! I had a toe fusion a month ago so non weight bearing for awhile… this makes me feel like I’m doing something…and I am! 🥰 (I’m hitting up all your chair workouts!)
Great Cindi! I'm so glad you are enjoying my chair workouts and keeping active! All my best to you and your recovery :)

Thanks Lauren and Mike! This is a great option for alternating the more intense Pilates workout. Think i over did it yesterday...a little sore. So that i dont miss out on your program i can do a little less strenuous today. Thanks again🇨🇦🥰Sharon.

Great Karen! Happy to have you working out with me 🤩
Love love love this routine to start the day with. Another great one 👍👏👏😂 Lauren! Feel most effective so far! Love that you include the foot massage! Thanks so much for what you do. On a side note. Recently my husband John has been following your 30 min seated kickboxing routine. Each time when he finishes it he would come to me and said that lady really wears me out with a sweat 😂

So glad you and John are enjoying my workouts 🤩
