About this class

This is one of the older MerryBody classes. For higher quality sound and video select a newer class. Yay for peachy pilates butts! Of course, your butt is glorious right now and we don’t just work the butt muscles for the looks. Building butt strength will help to stabilize your pelvis and will prevent knee and lower back pain.

Alignment notes

For all 4s/hands and knees, place a blanket or towel under your knees for your extra comfort. Wrists should be directly under your shoulders and your knees directly underneath your hips. Especially when you add movement. Hold your shoulders back and down away from your ears and gaze down towards the ground to keep your neck aligned. For the butt lifts, lay on your back, bend your knees. Your ankles are under your knees, soles of the feet firmly press into the Earth. To check length, stretch your arms out long on the Earth, you should be able to just touch the back of your ankles with your fingertips.
