March MATness Day 25: jackknife!
Kathleen makes this look so easy. All of the muscles of the core work together to bring the body up into an inverted vertical position. The slow, controlled return to the mat is the most challenging part! https://t.co/s46BDCEyfZ

March MATness Day 23: Spine Twist!
Try to keep your spine vertical and imagine spiraling upwards as you twist. https://t.co/fQ6m3bbaIE

March MATness day 21: bicycle!

The hands provide some support for the hips in this move, but the majority of support comes from the core. Extend the leg fully before bending. https://t.co/BEDx7yzLIq

March MATness day 19: Neck Pull!

March MATness day 18: Thigh Stretch!
Hello quads!! https://t.co/Zk3lHQjQIe

March MATness day 17: Double Leg Kick. Same rules apply as the single leg variation. Hands behind the back present an additional challenge. 💪 https://t.co/QruV9d6dDW

[The Pilates Barre @PilatesBarrect]

March MATness day 16: Single Leg Kick!

This exercise is so much more than it appears... the entire back side of the body is involved, along with the deep core. The spine is in extension, but there is a feeling of length, created by the abdominals. https://t.co/vcsuhN1LTB

[The Pilates Barre @PilatesBarrect]

March MATness day 15: Swan Dive!

The abdominals support the extension in this exercise. Keep the spine lengthened, and use the internal muscles of your core to create a feeling of decompression during the movement. https://t.co/grb0NrGkE9

March MATness day 14: Saw

This is another powerful exercise, which combines flexion with rotation, and heavily recruits the obliques.

Fun fact: One of the goals of Pilates is to move your spine in all... https://t.co/v01y8iHqp8
