3 ways with…the Pilates Ball

Being travel friendly is not the only reason I love the Pilates ball. It’s fabulous for adding a little extra challenge to sequences as well as helping you connect more intentionally with your core work.

Here are 3 ways you can use a Pilates ball for a workout this summer;

  1. This ‘dancing thighs’ sequence is a corker for your thighs but also glutes and core work. Here we’re using the Pilates ball to add a little extra challenge for your inner thighs and help improve your connection to your core. The movements are tiny but mighty.

2. Up level your core workouts using a Pilates ball. We use the ball here not only to help strengthen your core connection but also increase the level of challenge by adding increased pressure in your core - you’ll definitely be left feeling shaky after this one!

3. Make a glute bridge a wee bit spicier by adding a ball under your heel / foot or even both feet. This is incredible for increasing your strength and improving overall stability.

These sequences are classic Barre movements - low impact, intentional and all about strength and stability. You’ll find all of these and plenty more on our online studio including Barre classes, challenges and programmes. Head to The Barre Coach Online Studio to have a peek.
