Ready to build strength and mobility with our newest Pilates & Strength Class? The weighted series uses two medium to heavy dumbbells (I am using 17.5 lbs) and will work to strengthen your upper and lower body. The mat portion of the class will give you a great abdominal burn while helping you connect deeper into your body. Enjoy!

Class 259: Obliques and Hips (Small Ball)
This class focuses on the obliques and hips using the small ball. You can expect some targeted work, especially in side-lying. Enjoy!
Class 258: Lauren’s Favs (2025)
In honor of my birthday week, here is a class filled with some of my favorite exercises (right now). Enjoy!
Class 257: Feel Good in 15
This is a quick class to do when you want to move your body but don’t have a lot of time to spare. This is easy, gentle movement designed to open you up and stretch you out!
Class 256: Quickie 23
This quick class will give you a full-body workout and we incorporate some unilateral exercises that challenge your stability. Enjoy!
Class 255: Strong Hips & Glutes (Circle Band)
I love using the circle band as a prop because it is widely effective every time! This class focuses on your hips and glutes (don’t worry, we will sneak in a little abdominal work too). Remember to engage your abdominals to maintain proper alignment and stability during hip and glute-focused exercises.
Class 254: Pilates & Strength 9
In this Pilates and Strength class, we start and end with a standing weight series that uses one medium to heavy dumbbell. Our mat work will focus on the abdominals and flexibility. Enjoy!
253: Strong Back Body
Working the posterior chain (i.e. your back body) is super important for overall strength and maintaining or improving your posture. I love back bodywork because it is endlessly challenging while also giving you a lot of bang for your buck.
Class 252: Strong and Stable
This is a full-body class without any forward flexion (think crunches). We will focus on a strong, stable center while freely moving the arms and legs. Enjoy!
Class 251: Weighted Abs
This is a quick, no-flexion class that utilizes one heavy dumbbell as a way to work the abdominals.
Class 250: Quickie 22
It has been a while since we have had a new true quickie, and this one delivers. Expect a fun take on the abdominals series as well as full-body quadruped and prone work. You will step off your mat in less than 20 minutes, ready to tackle the rest of your day like a boss.
Class 249: Pilates & Strength 8
This Pilates and Strength class starts and ends with a standing unilateral full-body series with two dumbbells (I’m using 15 lbs). On the mat, we hit the abdominals hard with a progressive series of five burners (take breaks as needed or challenge yourself to make it from start to finish without stopping). The side kneeling series is a great challenge for both the hips and the abdominals. Enjoy!
Class 248: FUNdamentals 3
Let’s wrap up this FUNamental series with more advanced choreography and new exercises. I encourage you to continue to practice this series until you gain confidence with these beloved basics within the Pilates repertoire. The more confident you feel, the more you will get out of every Pilates class you take, inside and beyond the membership.
Class 247: FUNdamentals 2
Welcome back to class two of the FUNdamentals series. In this class we will revisit everything we did in Class 1 and start to build while also adding in new exercises for you to try.
Class 246: FUNdamentals 1
This is the first class in a three-class series to help you build confidence in the Pilates fundamentals. It is a great series if you are new to Pilates or if you are looking to fine-tune your technique.
Class 245: Express Arm Blast
Ready for a super quick arm blast? I suggest doing this class once through, and if you think you still have something left, rewind and complete it a second time. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great class on its own, but two times is absolute fire! I am using 1.5 kg or 3-pound hand weights. I suggest between 1 and 5 pounds. Enjoy!
Class 244: Magic Circle Madness
Grab your magic circle for this full-body workout. This class is challenging for both the abdominals and legs, but you can still expect to leave your mat feeling like your whole body has gotten a workout. If you don’t have a magic circle, you can use a small ball and a circle band. You will use the ball between your legs in place of the ring and the circle band when the ring is on the outside of the legs. You can find one here if you want a magic circle.
Class 243: Creating Length
“Length over height.” If you have heard me say this once, you have heard me say it 100 times in class. This class will hopefully help you see how we want to create length in our arms and legs throughout your Pilates classes while maintaining a stable center.
