Ange, I've been reading just a few comments and I completely agree with all of them. I'm a Pilates instructor (not in practice), and the way of explaining the exercises is as clearer as it should be, and that's not easy 😉 For me, you are the best instructor I've found. Thank you for the videos
love these workouts! I used to do pilates with a morning workout show on television, never was able to reconnect until now - best workouts ever. Thank you
This is my fourth and last workout of yours today! My hips feel so good and flexible. I have enjoyed my morning of pilates with you. So happy that I found your channel. Will see you back tomorow! 😊
Not sure if it was just my machine, but the volume went out and fluctuated a few times during the course of this video. Love your videos Ange. You are an amazing instructor.
Fantastic teacher: love the fact you continuously remind us to check in with our posture/positioning. Perfect timing as well, usually just as I am bout to relax and dip my ribs to the mat :) Thanks
I’m experienced with exercise but wow this one made me sore and I said ow quite a few times throughout your program! Thanks Ange I’ve been doing your workouts for years and you do AWESOME WORK!!
This was amazing lower body work. The 'Drop knees lift feet extend the leg' move at 25:50 was incredible. This workout targeted my hips and glutes without too much work in my quad (my quads r plenty-developed bc I bike, so I prefer this focus). Thank u!!
Thank you Ange, I am a Pilates instructor, and I have been looking for an pilates instructor that uses the same breathing techniques like me, amazing workout, I enjoy your videos
Ange, your instructions are clear, and precise! I appreciate your constant reminders throughout the workout and your how you explain what happens when the form is not kept. Thank you! Do you have a workout for women who have Diastasis recti?
lucesale unfortunately I do not. The most important thing for you to do is strengthen your pelvic floor muscles and your lower abdominal abdominals. Lifting your upper body (chest lifts) are a big no no! Hope this helps 😊😊
I’ve been following your workouts for more than 1 year, and I have to say I love all of the practice. I’m really looking forward to your comeback, I hope you are doing well, thank you a lot ❤❤.
Thank you Zoe for your support. Sorry I’ve even a bit MIA but I’ve had some ongoing injuries, a grandchild and now relocated to Thailand. Hoping to come back soon ❤️
Thank you, Ange. So happy to have discovered you. Just one thing .. the music made it hard for me to hear some parts, and the little barking sounds toward the beginning drove my dogs berserk--they (my crazy dogs) were NOT helpful to my concentration!!!. One vote here for no background music.
+Bonny Hart Hi Bonny, thank you for your comment. Yes, I no longer use music but unfortunately I cannot control the outside noise depending on where I am filming and with this particular video we were unable to edit the bark out.
Hi there, your back should not hurt unless you have a back injury. This could mean that you are not engaging your core correctly. Perhaps take a moment just to listen to my cues re engaging your core and taking the less challenging option until you stop feeling your back. I hope this helps.
I am relatively new at this and find the music is too loud to hear your instructions clearly. I do like the choice of music, it seems, however, it should be in the background and your voice/instructions in the foreground. Otherwise, I really enjoyed this workout!
fantastic, thank you from Spain... the music is too loud, it drowns your voice, which means you have to look at the screen. really good work, thankx penny
I lost a lot weight recently (ya!!) But my legs lost their muscles, I've been working really hard to get them in shape again...any suggestion how often to do this video?.Thanks!!Love your videos!!!!
I love this workout, but the windshield wipers kill me every time! I can't seem to keep my shoulder blades on the ground. Don't even mention extending the legs! How can I improve this exercise? Should I start with a much smaller range of motion? Thank you so much! Gabrielle
soulonskates yes start with a smaller range, even with your toes on the floor knees bent & progress from there. Practice makes perfect! Keep up the good work 💪🏽💪🏽
Sooo good!!! released my upper back~ do you have any neck release sequences? Such a tight neck...or do you recommend a combination of abb and back sequences?
I normally enjoy sideline exercises but for some reason the ones in this workout are a real struggle for me. You keep mentioning the inner thigh but I can't feel any engagement in my inner thigh whatsoever; instead I feel an intense cramp from the top of my glute all through my lower back on whichever side it is that I'm doing, which then bothers my sciatic nerve. I find it really hard to engage my glutes during these exercises without feeling this cramp, am I doing something wrong?
Hi Adele, I am not sure why you are getting an intense cramp. Are experiencing this cramp on both sides and in the same place? Are you feeling this in both the exercises where the legs are long and when they are both bent? (The latter side lying exercise) Perhaps try bending your bottom leg for more support when both legs are straight and maybe you need to more hip and glute strengthening exercises. I hope this helps. xo
Greetings from Ireland - I always tend to feel more in the opposite (resting) thigh/glut when doing sideline exercises like these. What am I doing wrong?
+Laura Coyne Hi Laura. So happy to have reached you in Ireland. Don't worry you are not doing the exercises wrong. In certain exercises the non working leg is the stabilizing one and that sometimes works harder than the one that is actually working!! Regards Ange
Prezi's Helma Schellen it's the small space between your lower spine and the mat, which is your spine following its natural curvature. I hope that makes sense? 😊😊
Hi Grushenka, no they are not sandals but pilates shoes. Its just a personal preference, you can wear socks or just go barefoot.

I've recently had worsening symptoms of SI joint pain and this is hands down the only routine that helps me maintain some sort of stability in my hips and gets rid of pain. Thank you, Ange! I hope you're doing well and we'll get to see some more routines from you. All the best!💗
Hi I love your videos, you’re a fantastic instructor. When doing this one I have so much pain in my knees to the point I had to give up!! Especially the straight leg circles and lifts. I don’t usually suffer knee pain during other exercises, am I doing something wrong?
Annette Greenshields I am sorry to hear this. You should not be feeling any pains through your knees. Do you suffer at all from tightness in your lower back or hips ? This could be causing issues with your knees. When you do the hip flexor stretch do you feel your knees?
Thank you for your reply! I run on a regular basis and I don’t suffer knee pain doing this. I think the problem may be tightness in my hips, hamstrings etc. I’m very inflexible and have started to do yoga every day. Is there anything you can recommend?
Annette Greenshields yes it’s all related and running may be contributing to the tightness. Make sure you stretch lots before and after your run. You may want to seek professional help of the pain continues. Good luck!
Hi Angie, Just came across your video today and was amazed just watching you. You are so fit and fabulous! I am definitely going to try doing this and build up to 3 x week. What is your advice on diet? Are you vegetarian? Please advise. Thanks in advance!
Hi Astrsygirll2010 thank you so much! I am a firm believer in everything in moderation! Eat as close to the natural source as possible, good clean food. No processed or pre-packaged food. I am a pescatarian :):)
Ange you, by far, have the best Pilates channel I've encountered! In all the Pilates classes I've ever taken, it drives me crazy when instructors not only don't place a good emphasis on form, but also don't have great form themselves. I've only been teaching at my university gym for a little over three years. But, I hope that as my teaching experience grows and I expand my education, I can one day be as wonderful of an instructor as you are!
+Alyssa Long Thank you so much Alyssa! With Pilates you will be learning all the time which makes it so exciting. Enjoy your Pilates journey and let your love for Pilates shine through your teaching :)
it could be great workou but this music is too loud and I cannot hear instructions. could you tell me when you stop using music so I can go to this workout?
+salanee Hi Salanee, thank you for your comment. I now no longer have music as result of this problem. Unfortunately I am unable to edit the music out on this particular workout but please take a look out the others as there are plenty without music. Thanks Ange
Hi Gruesheka, so glad to have reached all the way in Italy! Thank you for your kind words. You can change your body shape just by doing pilates but remember it takes time. A very important aspect is also your diet, exercise alone wont do it.
Hi Kaay, thanks for feedback :) this is one of the older videos so we have now have the back ground music lower and our production quality is much better
Ange, I've been reading just a few comments and I completely agree with all of them. I'm a Pilates instructor (not in practice), and the way of explaining the exercises is as clearer as it should be, and that's not easy 😉
For me, you are the best instructor I've found. Thank you for the videos
Laura de la Fuente Thank you so much 🙏🙏

Clínica Cirugía Estética Madrid Dra. Ainhoa Placer thank you for the feedback I will check it out.
thanks for these exercises, but in some exercises my back hurts, I would like to know if it is normal, hello from Italy.
Hi there, your back should not hurt unless you have a back injury. This could mean that you are not engaging your core correctly. Perhaps take a moment just to listen to my cues re engaging your core and taking the less challenging option until you stop feeling your back. I hope this helps.
@@AngesPilates thanks!
Thank you so much...from Serbia!
Thank you Curguz, I have just visited your beautiful country and stayed in Belgrade!
Omg the burn!!!

Thank you for a great workout. My bum is going to hurt in the morning x
Amy Cowles 😂😂Good job!

Thanks for your feedback Thomas. I shall certainly look into this! Ange
fantastic, thank you from Spain... the music is too loud, it drowns your voice, which means you have to look at the screen. really good work, thankx

Kit Hogg thank you for the feed back Kit, I will speak to my video crew xx
I lost a lot weight recently (ya!!) But my legs lost their muscles, I've been working really hard to get them in shape again...any suggestion how often to do this video?.Thanks!!Love your videos!!!!
Thank you at Tutu 51 and well done! Once is definitely not enough so I would try and aim for at least three times a week. Keep up the good work! Ange
I love your videos , thank you . I wonder how many times a week I should repeat this exercise?
Nur id I would suggest doing Pilates at least 3 times a week to notice any significant changes. Keep up the good work! 😊😊
A very good workout: thank you!
Thank you Paola, I am glad you enjoyed it!
You've inspired me! I bought a ring!
Melissa B 🙏🙏Keep up the good work! 💪🏽💪🏽

Sooo good!!! released my upper back~ do you have any neck release sequences?
Such a tight neck...or do you recommend a combination of abb and back sequences?
Thanks Samantha. Tight necks are usually related to upper back and shoulder issues so bear this in mind when you are exercising. xo
Thanks Ange. Very nice workout! Do you crosstrain or just do pilates? Big hug
Massimo lievore 🙏🙏 I also teach Barre which uses light hand weights but it’s mainly all Pilates. 🙂🙂

Great workout! I'm nursing and strengthening a bum shoulder and this was a the perfect video to continue my rehab. Thank you!
Colleen Pragalz that's awesome!
BTW I just subscribed!
Thats fabulous! Welcome to Ange's Pilates xx
Can't hear the instructions. Music too loud. Nice music though...
Laura Bernay thank you for your feedback. I am aware of this and have made adjustments for my other workouts.
What gap? LOL
Prezi's Helma Schellen it's the small space between your lower spine and the mat, which is your spine following its natural curvature. I hope that makes sense? 😊😊
Yes, i understood. I meant....in stead of a gap there's fat hahah
:) :)
are you wearing sandals???
Hi Grushenka, no they are not sandals but pilates shoes. Its just a personal preference, you can wear socks or just go barefoot.

That’s great to hear! I am so glad you got some relief! ❤️
Still loving this video! It’s my go to when I have knee issues. Always helps them feel better. Thank you.
So great to hear ❤️
Thank you for this effective workout. Superb instruction and results oriented.
Thanks 🙏 I am so glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Thank you so much! I love the music as well. Can you tell me who the artist is?

Great instruction. Thx for posting :-)
