What are the 34 exercises of Joseph Pilates?
Before we get into the exercises there are 6 principles of the Pilates method that we should be using within the exercises, these are:
When Joseph Pilates created this method, there were only 34 exercises, however generations have past and the generation we live in now has changed massively, with lots more research evolving each day on the body, there are now other Pilates exercises that are developed to stabilise certain muscles.
There are also more people creating different Pilates methods on top of Joseph Pilates. So what are the 34 exercises you ask, look no further (don’t forget there’s different levels to practice each exercise to suit the needs to everyone).
Interesting fact
Pilates was actually named Contrology from Joseph himself.
I hope all of the above helped you understand Pilates a little better, as always please email georginayoga@hotmail.com for any other questions.
Thanks always,

Never done an inversion before? Think they look pretty awesome but scary and you’d love to learn how to do one? Say no moreeeeee, have a look below and try it out!!
I remember the first headstand I did. I watched numerous videos and thought it would be a good idea to put them all into my own version of a headstand and show you the way I learnt. I was inspired by sooo many videos I looked at online, so I thought I’d pass on what I’ve learnt and show you the safest way…
Ok so are you ready? Let’s get started!!
I was constantly trying this every day, probably 20 times a day for about 1 week and I was finally able to BALANCE in this posture…it was a phenomenon for me seriously, it felt euphoric, I loved it and without the wall too!
Keep at it and tag me in your posts with how you’re getting on with this 🙂 instagram: @georginakayyp
REMEMBER…What may have taken me a week to figure out for me, may take you longer or even shorter…our bodies are all built differently. With headstand, we need to find the CORE strength but also hamstring flexibility and glutei strength to be able to find it easier to come up into this pose, so work on the above warm ups each day and see where you get.

What is the E-Book and why have I made it?
The E-Book is a small guide in how you can start Yoga and or Pilates. We go through what Yoga & Pilates is, the breath, a Yoga flow and a Pilates class.
It’s a 20 page online booklet with a 5 day schedule planner for you to use to keep track and be accountable of your practice & workout.
Even if you’ve practiced just Yoga and not Pilates or vise versa, you can still download it and look at that one section.
There’s many places out there that would charge a small fee for E-Books but I wanted to create and give you something FREE to help you on your journey in starting something new and making a habit into it, because there’s nothing more confusing than having so much information in different places and getting confused by it all, when everything you need to know is in this one E-Book.
And if the E-Book isn’t enough and you want to try and delve into it more, then I offer a FREE 7 day trial on the Online Membership…if you’re unsure on what this is then look no further because there’s a blog post about what the Online Membership is too, so go check that out.
You can then use the 7 day free trial to practice a little more and start to really understand what Yoga & Pilates is in the beginners section.
How can I get it?
Subscribe to my mailing list and you’ll get it in your inbox.
I hope this helped you understand the E-Book and you enjoy the free guide. Have a beautiful day.
Thanks always,

How much is the membership?
You have the option to pay every month, 6 months or a year and it’s a rolling subscription so you can cancel at any time you want and the subscription won’t end until your end date.
Why should I try the membership?
The best thing about the membership is that it’s a space for you to come and go as you please, there’s no expectations and if you feel like you’d want more of a challenge then you can try the challenges or series section. It’s the best way to practice in your own time with no pressure. You set aside your space and turn your tv on and have your own time.
If you’re a beginner then this is even better for you because again, you get to understand more poses and exercises and there’s even a yoga for absolute beginner series on there to try…what are you waiting for? Discover your deepest abilities on the most valuable membership yet.
