    I ‘ve been doing your videos for 8 months now and I am so happy to add Pilates, stretching and dumbbells to my days. It has really made a difference in my energy, my balance and my sleep. I’m 57 and think this is the best health I’ve ever been in.

    I love that you assure beginners (Im one of them) that it is okay to skip through something that is too much at the moment. I hope that in time they build the strength to do the complete workout! You can do it, I believe in you!!!

    I have been using this video and her ten minute dumbbell workout to help me come back from a four-year illness where I was essentially bedridden. I am mobile and feeling really great again. Thank you so much for these encouraging full beginner workouts! They are good for your mind as well as your body.

  • @kitkat44885
    @kitkat44885 Год назад +44

    I want to say thankyou for being so encouraging to beginners of all kinds. I have hypermobility and associated chronic pain. I just graduation college and the career I want seemed like it might have become an impossible dream because of my body and the fear I had of the gym and being able to exercise and gain strength without hurting myself. I've only been following along with your videos for the past few days but it's already the most confident I've felt in my ability to actually do something and improve.
    I can honestly say I cried because of your encouragement. Thankyou for making these videos and making them accessable.

  • @susanasantos1935

    I loved this beginner’s Pilate workout. I love that Jessica talks you through the entire workout and even gives modified versions to help us get through it. I feel rejuvenated and more flexible after this.

    • @elizabethnoske1342
      @elizabethnoske1342 9 месяцев назад

      I love the workout too, but for me, too much talking, especially as I like to revisit my favourite workouts frequently and the long explanations interfere with the smooth transitions. It would be good to have a version without the additional comments, just the instructions.

    @MissChris5280 Год назад +6

Happy days!! . Im also suffering from osteoarthritis and awaiting a hip replacement so your arthritis videos are a blessing. Thank you Jessica

I used to do Pilates years ago but then got into other exercises . I’m so excited to be on this journey and have you as my instructor. Your voice is so relaxing and you make this so much fun. Looking forward to checking your other videos. Thanks a bunch.

    I'm just new here. I'm in my 50's. I'm trying to do the best for my health. Last year, I changed my patterns from nutrition, exercises, and sleeping patterns. I have been trying to do pilates for a long time now. I feel frustrated because it seems so difficult to me to do some of the exercises. I do Dumbells, resistance, and Cardio weekly. I have problems with my flexibility and mobility. My Doctor recommended pilates. My budget is tight now, I haven't been able to subscribe to pilates classes.
    Your video came to me as recommended, and I'm so happy. You know how to explain the principles so well. Thank you. I just subscribed to your channel.

    I just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful and challenging offering of workouts. I have always felt non-athletic and not paid attention to my body. Now in my 50's, I hope to be my healthiest, and have started with your workouts. I am so moved by the kindness and warmth to each video. I really feel like wherever I am in my workout journey, it is ok. I've always judged myself harshly - your reminders to celebrate what is possible means so much. Thank you. Sending deep gratitude and good vibes your way.

Increasing strength and flexibility and continuing to heal my core. I'm looking forward to continuing your videos

    I used to be really active, yoga rowing and weights every other day for at least an hour. Then a few years ago started to experience a lot of pain and dislocations, was then diagnosed with EDS. I was told to stop doing pretty much any of my normal exercises until they figured out how fast I was deteriorating and how much my heart was affected (I developed tachycardia). All I was left with was walking my dog on days where the pain wasn't too bad. Finally got on the right medication and pain control, but my body has seized up from the lack of movement and pain. I've started doing this workout everyday before I take my dog on a walk to hopefully get my body comfortable moving again. I know I won't ever go back to what my body was like before the symptoms really hit, but happy I have access to something that I can do to get me back to a place where I'm happy again, even if it's going to be a long and slow journey

    Awesome like always. I love how Jessica comes back to beginners sessions. I´ve just done this today after years as lately I´ve lost a lot of mobility and i wake up stiff in the mornings with a lower back pain. I´ve always been practising sports and never have had any issues, as i kept myself fit and always stretched. But now I´m 45 and my exercise is not as often as it used to be and i forget to stretch. I believe practising this pilates will help me get my mobility and strength back to keep doing every sport I do and stay fit. Thanks thanks thanks . I can´t wait to keep adding more of these !!
