Most core classes tell you what to do. This one tells you where to feel it.
In this 20-minute intermediate Pilates class for core strength, we continue the journey of connection — seeking the deep core that creates fluid movement and genuine, lasting strength.
Throughout, I'll be checking in with you: is your pelvis stable, are your shoulders wide, is your abdominal supporting your lower back, or is your lower back holding itself? Those questions are the work. Awareness is what turns an exercise into strength.
We move through seated C-curve work, leg changes, abdominal work, chest lift with rotation, the hundred, roll-ups, back support, side bridge, double leg kick, and finish in plank. No equipment needed.
This is intermediate work — but it's still gentle in approach. If you've been practising with me for a while and gentle flows have started to feel easy, this is a natural next step. Modify anything, rest whenever you need to, and come back to it when you're ready.
This class is part of the Body Wisdom Series inside the Flow with Mira membership — a beginner-intermediate series exploring body awareness, core strength, balance, and flowing movement.
