Wonderful! The use of the breath, particularly in 'rolling like a ball' and 'open leg rocker', was amazing. Thank you again Amit :)

Fantastic class, I really needed to breath deeply so got a good exercise AND oxygen.Thanks Amit!

Thank you for your lovely comment Elite! It really does feel wonderful when we move and breathe fully at the same time, doesn't it? :)
Stay well

Hi Amit, should we breath out through the nose or the mouth? I am asking beacuse nowdays everybody says breath in and out through the nose.

Hi Marija
I don't think there should be one black and white rule about breathing in Pilates. I believe the breath should serve the exercise (the individual doing the exercise...) and that many exercises can help improve our breath capacity and thus our health.
If you have a question regarding a specific exercise I'd be happy to share my thoughts with you on that more. Please drop me a line to amit@yoopod.com
Warm wishes
Amit

What a fantastic session on demystifying the use of the breath in the exercises. Will need to do this class a few more times to get it hard wired into my brain!
