Thank you for working out with me!
Lauren, I’m in my 30’s and have fibromyalgia. I’ve been unable to find a form of exercise that wasn’t to harsh on my joints and muscles. I have been trying many different workouts here on RUclips and I just did this Pilates routine. Amazing! Not too strenuous but challenging. The pace was perfect. I’m so thankful that you took the time to make this video and I hope you post more ‘senior’ Pilates. My lower body needs the workout most ❤️
What a nice comment, thank you! I actually have lots of viewers in their 30’s like you, some also dealing with cronic pain. Good for you for exercising! You’ll be happy to know that I just filmed a new Pilates video today! It focuses on toning the glutes and legs most. Look for it later next month. Make sure you are subscribed so you don’t miss it 😃 Lauren
Lauren is amazing!
Thank you ❤️ glad you enjoyed the workout!
I agree. Excellent cueing
Oh this was awesome! My husband and I both did this today and it's just what I need to get back into my workout routines after being sick. Thank you Lauren!
My pleasure Cinda! I'm so glad it was the perfect workout for you and that you feel better :)
This most be the World's Most Perfect exercise video. I feel so great after doing this one...every single time. Thanks, Lauren!
Thanks for that Staci :)
I agree! I'm amazed at how wonderful I feel after doing this one!
Really good beginning stretches for a senior. Been a long time since I stretched like this and my muscles are saying ‘thanks’
Great to hear Eleanor! I agree, this one really makes you feel good :)
Can’t thank you enough for the classes 🙏❤️
My pleasure Ruth :)
This workout was incredible! I started doing your workouts in December, and really love all of them. I’m 55 and fit, but have had shoulder tears and knee issues, so want to protect them while continuing my love of fitness. Your workouts are exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thank you!
Awesome! That’s great to hear that my workouts are a good fit💜
Excellent pilates gentle practice for lower back pain thank you
Yay! You are welcome Lorna! 🤩
Love this luxurious session and relaxing music ❤
Feel amazing 💪❤️
Best workout reliving back pain ❤
So glad it's helpful :)
I loved this super stretchy workout this evening. Thank you Lauren ❤️
Glad you liked it!! 🤩
GM as always feel amazing 💪🙏
This was the perfect session for me as I ease myself back into working out after an osteoarthritis flare-up in my back. It really forced me to slow down and listen to my body AND provided a bit of a challenge. Thank you!
Good for you! It's so important to listen to our bodies :)
Dear Lauren, I m 47, not that old, and you are my favorite coach. Your fantastic videos are perfect for me to workout after a day sitting at my desk and feeling tired. This video is my absolute favorite. It is the only long relaxing video I ve found for the days when I have no energy and need a good relaxing stretching workout. I often check if you ll be publishing an even longer relaxing stretching video on the floor 😊
A huge thank you. You re the only one that keeps me motivated and makes me feel good and fit. And your kindness is like a sunshine.
Christophe
My pleasure Christophe! I'm thrilled that you like it so much and it makes you feel good. That's most important! One of these days I'll get a even longer video to you! adding it to my (long) list....
@@SeniorShapeFitness Thank you so much, that would be wonderful 😁
I'm loving all the workouts with Lauren that I have tried and especially the fact that there is so much variety, I never get bored. keep them coming!
Thanks Jennifer! I'll keep them variety and the videos coming so I don't get bored too!
Love this relaxing stretches, it‘s not easy but it is a great one. Thank you ❤
You're so welcome! Thanks Ruth :)
This workout is a true masterpiece! It's an amazing introduction to Pilates. The bird-dog and modified plank give me something to work on. The stretches are magical. I seriously didn't think my body could ever feel this good again.
Wow! What a great review! I’m thrilled you enjoyed it and tried a Pilates workout 🤩
@@SeniorShapeFitness All the stretching I've been doing with you is life-changing! This one left my body feeling absolutely amazing! Thank you so much.
I am glad to be back to my routine after one week in Denali Ak! Thank you Lauren your workout is the best ❤️❤️
Hope you had a great trip Ruth!
Awesome workout again. I love feeling my body stretching so gently and yet so efficiently. I love the variety you offer to us. I can't say how wonderful I feel. I've exercised so much all my life, swimming, running, biking and walking but never took the time to stretch. I am 59 and very fit but with lots of aches that have disappeared since I've started doing your workouts. I knew the pains were muscular ones (although my knees are painful) but I just wouldn't take the time to stretch. I am so glad I found you straight away on youtube because I love everything about you and your approach. I love your instructions and your encouragements and you make me giggle sometimes. I have recommended you to so many of my friends. To me, you are the very best. You are my angel. Thank you so much for making my body feel younger! 😊
That is so kind of you to say Martine. Thank you so much. I agree stretching is so important and can make all the difference! I'm thrilled to have you working out with me and laughing with me :)
Thank you! ☺️❤️
You’re welcome 😊 Glad you liked this one too!
Just did a 7k walk with my dog then come back and finished it with your gentle pilates and stretching video and your 10 minute band stretch feeling so good thanks for all your great videos so much choice. Have a beautiful day 🌺
You as well Patricia! THat's a great combo :)
I really appreciate your videos Lauren. You are helping me so much.
That’s so nice to hear Katherine, you are most welcome! 💜
I’m 69 years old and recovering from cancer and chemo. With complications, I was in bed for a year so I’m exceedingly out of shape and very stiff. I found this routine to be a wonderful way to start to wake my body up and gently stretch. Well done! So happy I found your channel. Thank you.
Wonderful April! I’m so glad this is helpful for you. You are most welcome and I wish you the best on your continued recovery 💜
Absolutely the most amazing relaxing experience ❤❤
This is such a beautiful relaxing video would love to have more of this especially with the longer version. Thanks for your hard work. ❤
Thank you for this...I am not a senior and I frequently do difficult, intense workouts...I just needed a break lol! This was perfect ❤
Great! Happy to hear you enjoyed it ;)
This gentle pilates and stretch routine was just what I needed this morning. I've noticed my calves being really tight lately and I woke up the other night with one of those awful charley horse cramps in my right calf. This workout allowed me to be challenged with my core, and relax and heal with the stretches. 😊Thank you, Lauren!
I'm so glad it was helpful Sindy!
Hi Lauren,
I have really been enjoying your Pilates for beginners/seniors session. It's been well over 20 years since I last did any regular stretcing and find your workout a great way to get back into it. I have a couple issues with very tight leg muscles and hamstrings, plus a partial frozen shoulder and am managing to complete the workouts successfully. I enjoy your calmness and the phrase "You do you." That's a huge help. I started your resistance band video and felt successful with it also. Thank you so much!
Wonderful Linda! Thank you so much for your kind comments. I’m thrilled that you are enjoying my workouts and that they have been helpful to you. Kudos to you for getting started again 🙌🏻
Lauren, this workout was awesome! I didn't how tight I really was! I felt muscles I didn't know I had! Love your gentile workouts for us seniors:) Thank you,
Happy to hear it's a good one for you Millie :)
After seated Pilate earlier; this routine helps my sore lower back every morning; thank you Lauren ❤❤
Feel relaxed after Anti-Aging workout ❤
Perfect!
Thank you for recommending this video to me!! I have added it to the two weight videos I do every other day. I'm going to do the Pilates video every day, except on the days I go to my Pilates class. I also get cramps when doing Pilates. (I read all the comments). I drink a lot of water and take extra magnesium. Your videos are THE BEST!!
Thanks so much Linda! You are most welcome and keep up the good work :)
60 and loved this video!
Great to hear! Thanks Michelle :)
This was so lovely, calm and relaxing slow movement of my body. Always feel good after moving, and this pace was perfect for today. Thank you!
You’re so welcome. It’s the best when you feel better after a workout 🙌🏻. Thank you for your kind words 😍
Love the workout with not perfect move ❤️😂💪
That’s a very good stretch,, it’s hard for those who have pain in all over the body but I know as time goes on I will feel better and be flexible
Glad it's a good stretch workout for you, keep up the great work:)
This is a great video for both stretching and strengthening.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you Julie :)
Practiced not looking at the screen but following your instructions 💪😍
good to do!
Excellent! Did this today for the first time!
Excellent Mary 🤩
Love these stretches after tiredness in muscles. I can feel my muscles loosening. Thanks Lauren!
Wonderful Maria! I love how pilates makes me feel too 💜
Super class for this 78 years old senior ❤❤❤❤
Great 🤩
I felt so fantastic after this workout!!!! Keep them coming Lauren!!!!!
Great! Here is a link to a similar and newer pilates workout: ruclips.net/video/SjyJtRRbLdQ/видео.html
You are a life saver. Continue your calling. Thank you 😊
So nice of you to say Kashan! Thank you 💜
Perfect workout to get me back into an exercise routine. I’m 67 and left knee issue has slowed me down this past year. I’m ready to get back in better shape for 2024! Thank you for your routines with the calm descriptions.
You are most welcome Debbie!
Nice Lauren, and just what I needed. I injured my right knee and this video and your knee pain video were perfect to help with the recovery.😍
Happy to hear it’s helpful Wendy! I hope your knee heals quickly ❤️🩹
First year anniversary workout with “Senior shape with Lauren”. Lots of “You Do You”! My flexibility has improved significantly with Mat Pirates; yoga beginner; Barre 🎉 Thank you my instructor friend 💪🩷❤️🎉
That is awesome! Great job Ruth 🤩🙌🏻
Great way to relax my muscles! ❤
Wonderful Coleen :)
Really enjoyed the stretching as much as I could. My right leg was disconnected from hip so I wasn't sure how much I could do with it. Laid on a mat on my bed to do these. Feel good. Thank you.
Good job doing what you could Sandra! I'm glad you were able to make it your own and that you feel good :)
This is my most favorite class with your calming voice instructions ❤️🩷💪
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow.. Incredible though difficult for me I always try to do me and do my best. Thanks for your work Lauren. God bless you. Dont know if you are mom, in this case Happy Mothers Day

I LOVE all your workouts! Would you consider posting your music playlist for this PILATES video? (Gentle Pilates and Stretch)
Thanks so much Katrina! If I remember correctly, this video (because it is older) just used the free unlicensed music from RUclips. I currently use a music subscription service called Epidemic Sound. Because it is unlicensed music, they are not songs that anyone can find or search up. Sorry about that!
היה מאתגר השתדלתי לבצע את הכל ונהנתי תודה רבה ❤
Glad you got a good workout and enjoyed it ;)
Really love your channel! Needed this wonderful relaxation stretch this morning. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it Karen :)
This is such a great "Stretch" practice! I love that we can ease into one stretch for a length of time and to to breathe it in! A good one for the lower back :) Timely for a great weekend! Thank you, Lauren♥☯
You bet Susan! Hope you have a great weekend :)

Great Anita! Enjoy your vacation :)
Wonderful..thank you! Loved the modified plank.
Awesome! Thank you Holly! 💜
Hi Lauren. i have a bowel disease and for various reasons I am at a stage where doctors can't do any more to help me. I am not at deaths door but when I saw my GI doctor last week, he was clear that this is as good as it gets. So whilst my ability to eat a healthy diet has been compromised he was amazed by the improvement in my fitness. I wanted to thank you for keeping me motivated because believe me there are days when showing up to exercise is a struggle but being fit and strong enough to manage things that I used to take for granted makes a difference to me every day.
Thank you for your kind words Clare, it means a lot to me. You should be proud of yourself for exercising and improving your strength, that's amazing! Keep up the good work and your positive attitude. That too will make all the difference. :)
I loved this workout. I do two of your workouts almost every day. I love them all! Thank you, Lauren! I'm 71 and find that I can do most of the work. You are the perfect instructor!😀❤
You are so kind Vickie! Keep up the great work :)
Great stretches! I am glad I discovered you on youtube. You are wonderful. I do wall pilates, chair pilates, walking, strenght and stretches. I feel a difference in my body, thanks to you.
Wonderful! I to hear that you are noticing a difference! Keep up the good work :)
Fabulous! I did Pilates for years and miss it! Thank you Lauren!!!
You're so welcome! Thanks Sharline :)
This is just what I needed after shoveling heavy wet snow yesterday. Thank you.
My pleasure, glad you enjoyed it ;)
Great combo, pilates #1 & 2 really enjoyed
Awesome! Thank you Christine!
Lovely!! Thank you!
Thanks Kelly!
This was perfect. I love your detailed instructions throughout the class. I am 66 yo and have a lot of tightness throughout my body, this really helped.
Glad it was helpful! thanks Heidi :)
Love this stretch
Nice to hear Alice, thank you :)
Feel amazing ❤
Happy to hear it!
My wife found this video as a good routine for me with low back disc issues. Sure enough, this is a great routine that I can do to maintain and maybe improve my flexibility and core strength. Most of the exercises are familiar with a few added movements here and there that add some extra gentle stretching. We’ll definitely add this to our rotation and check out more of the videos. Thank you for posting!
Great to hear Thomas :)
This was such a relaxing workout, thanks 💐
You're so welcome Maggie :)
After the stressful day of work I feel so much better after I do this stretch gentle Pilates! Thanks

Loved this workout this morning. Felt great afterwards.
Great job! I like how you did this floor pilates with the standing pilates :)
One of my favorite workouts ❤💪
You are great,looking forward to follow you more,❤
Thank you, I appreciate that!!
Lauren, it is for the first time in my life when I finished a pilates workout! I'm 48 years old and I have arthrosis, verry painful especially on my knees. Those exercices were perfect! Thank you for sharing with us your knwoledge. Greetings from Montréal, Canada.
Wonderful Corina! I’m so happy to hear this was a great Pilates class for you 💜
Awsome workout
Thanks so much Angela! Glad you enjoyed it 💜
This is my second time I did this,one when I was on bed,tonite I did it on the floor mat. It is much better on the the floor, few moves are very challenging,and I need to work on those moves. Otherwise it’s a very lovely exercise and stretch ,thank you.
Great job Carmen! keep at it and it will get easier. This one is so good for you :)
I did this workout right before my round of golf today - it was the perfect stretch I needed for the course.
Perfect! Thanks Karina 💜
Thank you so much, Lauren. My body is much happier❤
Happy to hear that, and thank you for your contribution!
Love this video ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful after sitting at a desk all day. Thank you!
You are so welcome! 🤩
It was nice to do an extended stretching video. I liked the pace and the time you held the stretches. Thanks for the pillow tip. The elongating arm and leg stretches from all-fours position is challenging and beneficial.
You are so welcome Jill. You're right, the bird-dog position works so many different body parts at once!
I love this work out. It’s nice and slow which is my speed. The standing workouts hurt my hips. I like the floor much better.
Great Patti! I’m glad you found what worlds for you! ❤️
Love this workout after Barre‘s video 🥰
Well this just popped up on my feed Lauren, must have missed this one! Very enjoyable as usual.
Oh thank you! It’s an oldie but a goodie 😍
I enjoy this workout ❤
So glad!
Another excellent class.
I will try all Lauren’s classes. Definitely the best senior classes
I appreciate that Inger :)
Great workout today Thank you see you soon ❤😊
You're so welcome Natalie :)
