Pilates for Seniors

Senior Pilates Exercises At-home

You are never too old to begin any exercise program, especially pilates.

Before you begin any new exercise always check with your doctor. In our live online Pilates classes, Jodie demonstrates gentle, slow exercises for older adults with modifications for all levels. You will experience standing Pilates exercises to improve balance to resistance band work for strength. In our online Pilates classes, we will focus on correct alignment and core activation so you progress safely, combined with relaxed breathing. Pilates is perfect for seniors and gives older adults a great workout at home. Unlike other exercises that put too much load on joints, Kevala Health Pilates is safe, slow, educational, and fun!

Jodie at Kevala Health recommends twice-a-week live online Pilates classes at home to help build your confidence, balance, and strength. For variety and fun, we sometimes use Pilates bands and small balls.

Some great senior Pilates exercises include bridges, which strengthen your back body and stretch the front body. Heel slides, modified planks, and heel taps, all strengthen your inner core. Side-lying clams help to strengthen the main hip stabilizers. We also recommend tabletop balances to improve focus, strength all over, and balance. In Kevala Health online Pilates classes we also include important stretches and you can ask questions at the beginning of each live-stream Pilates class. There are so many benefits why Pilates for seniors is the best way to exercise such as improved functional movements like walking, sitting, and standing. Enjoy life more as a senior with our Pilates for Senior exercise classes.
