Yoga Pilates Sculpt

I’ve got an awesome total body sculpt for you today! Join Coach Nikki for this yoga and pilates flow that will work your entire body and your core, leaving you feeling grounded, strong, and centered in just 20 minutes!

Coach Nikki is a yoga instructor ERYT200, an AFAA Certified Personal Trainer, a Mat Pilates Instructor and a Team Betty Rocker Coach inside of Rock Your Life – my online home workout studio and women’s fitness community!

This workout pairs Pilates strength moves with a flowing yoga practice focused on balance, strength, and flexibility which is a perfect mix.

This type of training has so many benefits – including lengthening and strengthening our muscles, reducing stress, chronic pain, improving sleep patterns, promoting and improving respiratory and cardiovascular function, and enhancing our overall well-being and quality of life.

Here’s a note from Coach Nikki: I love all of the different workout styles that I teach and practice but I have found that by far Pilates and yoga have enhanced every other form of movement in my life.

By slowing down and executing the movement with thoughtful attention and awareness of your breath you can learn to move more efficiently with grace, precision, and fluidity while building long, lean muscles.

For today’s workout I selected some of my favorite mat Pilates and yoga postures for you as a great core workout with an emphasis on strength and balance. You won’t need any equipment but feel free to add an elevated surface to hold on to as needed.

Now join Coach Nikki to sculpt, stretch and strengthen!
