Join me for a 30 Minute Standing Pilates Workout for Seniors 60+. What I have done is put together some exercises for the general aches & pains in the joints and spine that come with age. As well as some other exercises to help combat loss of strength, coordination and balance that also comes with age, but -and this is important- It doesn't have to be that way! Doing these exercises regularly will improve all these things so I am recommending you build up to doing this workout at least twice a week. If anything is too challenging for you right now, don't worry, just rest and come back and try again when you're ready. You can alos have a chair handy to help withthe balance work. This workout is also Osteoporosis friendly so safe for people with any concerns relating to Osteopenia and Osteoporosis. Take care of yourselves and keep moving, it's really good for you.

Stay safe, Stay well and have a wonderful day!
Much love,
Rachel ❤️

I absolutely love your exercises for 60+ seniors! You have been a lifesaver for me! I've been watching you since the pandemic and without you this 70+ body would be in such bad shape. Please keep them coming! Best regards, Molly from Livermore, California

🙏 I always appreciate you including osteo friendly classes rather than having to substitute for some movements, thank you 💐

So refreshing to see that you are human too. You loose your balance and it makes us all feel better.

So glad I found you … this was just what I needed. Been feeling tired, stiff, overweight and just wore out. As a middle aged performer in a band, I’ve gotta start getting in better shape. Thank you💕

Dear Rachel I remember there was a similar one to this for seniors way back at your beginnings. If I’m having a tired day these are perfect but usually choose something that really makes me feel younger than 78yrs so thank you. I hope the New Year brings you love, happiness and good health to you two and Boo ❤

Great class. More like this, please. Full body exercises, a little challenging, certainly doable, good for concentration.

Hello Rachel and thank you so much. I am 75 and I had ham string tendonitis in the right buttock, so sitting, standing up, bending down hurt. I started going to our local NHS physio therapist. She gave me some exercises. A friend told me they look like Pilates movements. 7 weeks ago I started going to a weekly Pilates class in our village, only a 7 minute walk from home. Really nice group of 'students', men and women. Our teacher is very good. I wanted to practise every day, but I couldn't remember the moves, so I searched online and found your YouTube classes. I have been doing your standing Pilates for seniors every day (I missed one day). My balance is difficult but with practice it's getting better. My hamstring is so much stronger now that yesterday my physio signed me off. I feel so much better. I am also starting to be more strict about what I eat because I have been told I am pre-diabetic. Our Pilates teacher is pleased I am following your classes. I am not watching them live, only the recorded ones. So, thank you very very much. You are wonderful. Best wishes from Vanessa

I love the emphasis on functional movements. My balance is so bad so this workout is very helpful. Exactly what I need! (I also have osteoporosis so this is tailor-made for me!). Thank you!
