For anyone who doesn’t have a mini ball - I used a yoga block and it worked great! Doesn’t have the squeezing aspect but it got the job done :)

[@MoveWithNicole]

Woohoo 💗💗

[@CindySwindell]

Same!

[@robynrunge1629]

Great tip, thank you!

[@dakotadedreu1451]

Thank you for the suggestion! I wanted to do this and was like fuck way can I use?!😅

[@tanglayyoga2518]

same here! and also foamroller, changed between two…

[@whatsabby2564]

Dear Nicole, could we get more workouts with the mini ball? It’s so fun!

[@MoveWithNicole]

You can absolutely still enjoy the class without a mini ball so here are some tips for those of you without one. 😊 - During the section with the ball behind your back, simply perform all the same movements lying flat on your back. - When the ball is in between the thighs, focus on squeezing your thighs together or you could use a pillow instead. I hope that helps! Lots of love xx

[@clarehaswell5763]

Can I just say I’ve been doing your workouts 5-6days per week for the last month or so, they are so amazing!! I’m starting to see changes in my body and my mental health is the best it’s been in years… so thank you and keep doing you! xx

[@barbarabarryarts]

Thank you, Clare ... today's my first and you inspire me to try 5 days per week for the next month!

[@daisyoliviafairhurst]

amazing workout nicole - i do your workouts many times throughout the week! i was wondering if you could hopefully create a new long pilates flow with the booty band and hand weights soon… they’re my absolute favourite workouts from you! thanks so much 🥰

[@CORI177]

(I second that amazing suggestion!! Her 45/60 min flows are sooo good, it would be cool to have a extra challenge long one.... )

[@sachellelim8244]

@@CORI177 I third this one! Am i too late for 2024? Lol

[@rybkbage2]

Happy to see a workout with a mini ball. The last one was amazing! More mini ball pilates Please!

[@xcxaxmxcxaxm]

I bought a mini ball just for this class when I saw that it was in this week plan and I did not regret it at all! Thank you Nicole for this amazing class, it was challenging and energising , just what I needed this morning

[@katrastubblefield4583]

Happy Valentine's day! Thanks for spreading the love!💞

[@alessandrarighi7140]

Your movements are so clear and calm, but so effective! You can feel all your muscles working... mini ball is my new favourite tool 😀

[@bernadettkoroknai3488]

I have not done any workouts in over a year and my body is stiff as can be. Just as in 2021, your lessons are well worth it, so calming and strengthening at the same time. Thank you so much for being your awesome self. ❤

[@yogawithchronicillness]

I used a yoga block instead of a ball and it still worked great! I love the classes with no standing and only shorter periods of time on the wrists. Thank you! ❤

[@ralucaprepelita8428]

You look so good in this midnight blue! 🤍 rolling out my mat right away!

[@alinemaurel8123]

Thanks, Nicole! So much to do with mini ball! I would love to see more classes like this one. As well I really enjoy classes with the mini band. Merci beaucoup!!

[@lucasvarley9764]

Amazing work-out Nicole to build those nice abs!!! Question... have you ever tried Next Level Diet? I got a muscle-building plan from them and I love it

[@honey4clover]

Love the use of the mini ball to spare the strain of the back❤ would love to see more variations🙏🏼

[@minax3105]

i did this one yesterday and trust me - it's challenging, yet very nice structured as always. + my abs are so sore today haha actually finding the balance with the ball is the big difficulty here, but with all the wonderful instructions of nicole, you can really activate your abs and get to feel your deep core muscles worked so well! i highly recommend to give it a try. thanks to nicole for the great work.♡

[@mattiegreathouse1049]

Very much enjoyed this workout! I didn’t have a ball and used a foam roller instead and it worked. These are all the same exercises my physical therapist gives me for my back! Thank you, Nicole, for another lovely video! xx

[@HaileyB85]

I love when we include the mini ball, thanks for another beautiful workout, Nicole! 🥰

[@lafamillekansoun1695]

The ball definitely makes it harder!! More of these would be great!

[@burcuevciler7001]

Hi Nicole, this one is fabulous, please make more of it with 40-45 minutes... :) thanks to you !

[@annievquinn7488]

Nicole your classes are amaaaaazing! I would love some more mini ball classes! So nice to mix it up and I love the variety !!! Thanks for all you do for us xxx

[@esraugurozgen]

You are my favourite plates teacher ever and ever, whenever I do one of your workouts I feel my admiration grows. No need to search for another plates channel. This one is by far the best. Türkiye'den sevgiler. Öpücükler. Teşekkürler🥰❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@kasiavermaire]

i love this class with the mini ball! ( addicted to all your classes anyway!) and yes more mini ball classes! maybe as well classes with the addition of ankle weights :-)

[@ChessGalea]

It’s always a good day when Nicole brings out a new workout🎉

[@sarahloughrey940]

Hi Nicole, love your movements! I’d love to see 30 day challenge/plan/intro to Pilates for beginner-intermediate.

[@unt0ldxsecr3ts]

always starting my day off right with nicole’s workouts! thank you! ♥️

[@MoveWithNicole]

Aw that makes me smile so much. 💗

[@user-uf1ym1xv7y]

Another great class Nicole. Thank you so much for keeping this 72 year old fit and flexible

[@jenni6981]

Love this! More mini ball workouts!💞

[@monkeybuttsrinurface]

Loved this so much!! I’m a professional ballerina dealing with an ankle injury and I’m really loving your videos!!! 🩷🩷🩷

[@helenportas91]

I"d love some more with the mini ball. Love working with them!

[@stasianastya]

just did it wth my mom and we loved it, so much good burn

[@charlottebos4146]

I loved this class! Challenging but fun :) I’d love to see more classes with props.

[@RoseClampitt]

Fan for life. The music is matched well to the workout, the backgrounds are calming & Nicole is the clearest instructor there is to follow so you can really let your mind go into the routine and connect with your body. The flow of each workout is always perfect, bringing you to intensity and then switching to different or adjacent muscles so you don’t over-fatigue any area. Cherry on top, mixing Nicole with a little cardio daily & my body looks amazing. What more can you ask for ❤

[@paniolena5792]

Hi, Nicole! I like your classes! You are so beautiful and your example inspires me so much! I want to do pilates with you. I'm 53, overweight, never do pilates. Tell me, please, which video should I start with? Thank you so much! 💖

[@juliavaron152]

So far, I wasn't fond of ball workouts. Last time, I borrowed my son's football and it was a bit hurtful 🤕. This time using a toy beach ball, I realized how joyful mini ball workouts can be. 😎⛹‍♀ Thank you, Nicole ❤!

[@Bee.Crossing]

Such a beautiful workout. I love the mini ball workouts. Thank you x

[@-asebeia-]

This was excellent! I bought a mini ball specifically to do this workout and am so glad I did. More like this please!!!

[@Melissa-lg8ds]

Yesss I love love this class. What do you eat ?? Hahahaha. I need whatever your doing in my life apart from a committed Pilates class per day 6-7 days per week. ❤😂

[@BG-fx4zx]

Love this workout routine ! Ive been doing it twice a week for 3 weeks and I can already feel the difference. 😍

[@zoonit7015]

This was amazing. More of these please + with bands, hand weights and magic circle please!

[@vanessab7502]

I had to comment that I didn’t expect much of an arm workout with the mini ball, but my arms were sore the next day. So good!

[@Anna-vq1tq]

Forever grateful for your amazing workouts! They are such a mood and energy booster! Thank you so much for the tips for those who don't have mini balls❤

[@poohcanplay123]

I was NOT ready for that ab sequence on the ball. Talk about 🔥 🔥😭.

[@crispiio]

perfect timing! i've just gotten my motivation back to do workouts lol

[@anastasiakallinic]

Even though I was very tired I managed to enjoy this workout and finish it 💪 thank you 😊

[@lj4472]

First time I've used the mini ball I loved it.

[@heartforce1]

My mini ball arrived in the post on Friday so I got to do this workout for the first time. It's taken the workouts to a new level. I love using the mini ball. I'll need to keep working on this one to get through the entire video without a break. Great core workout. Thanks Nicole.

[@lovebyrd88]

I absolutely love your flows Nicole. Thank you so much for all you give ❤️

[@virgi28]

I really love this one Nicole! Thanks again for sharing all this with us free! I'm very grateful!❤️

[@Bouzytsy_Laitra2]

I definitely love exercises with mini ball :))))

[@lauraturco6317]

Amazing dear Nicole😍😍😍I love using the ball too! 💪🏼

[@utapeter2211]

Just the other day I thought my pilates ball was quite deflated. Perfect reason to get it back into shape. Now just waiting for my cold to subside and then I'll get on it. Looking forward to it!

[@Backwoodsmom]

Excellent, really feel the deep core working with this!

[@shirinazadi8723]

Amazing and complete workout in a short time with beautiful stretches.thanks a lot lovely Nicole and happy new year to u with the best from my heart.love u too much ❤🙏🥰🌹

[@tecagalvao7441]

Thank you for the energizing class

[@muabaguy7115]

Spot on Nicole! I loved it even though the last 4 minutes were slightly challenging but I managed to complete your workout. I did this after walking 4 miles. Thanks for this

[@anastasiak290]

More pilates with a ball, please 🙏🤗

[@jstew7777777]

I loved using the ball in this class! I just used my children small Playball! Such a wonderful work out! Thank you!☀️

[@soynataliia]

Nicole, greetings from Russia! It was a great workout, I thought it would be difficult for me to master the average level, but I did it! It was very pleasant, now it's one of my favorite workouts.

[@allaina6399]

Instead of a miniball a 3lb dumbbell! Except when i need to push the ball, i dont use it i just press the floor. But i tried holding it between my legs doing the toe taps and it worked my core like crazy 🔥

[@TheFranny76]

I didn't have a ball so I took a cushion instead and I was able to do all the exercises. especially work the inner thigh muscles which is very good! thank you again for constantly renewing yourself 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@myintsan8960]

I love this class. Felt so good after those 20 minutes. Thank you ❤.

[@rp3875]

Gentle, yet challenging. Thanks Nicole!

[@maite1506]

Nicole hace mucho tiempo que te sigo aquí. Y me puse muy contenta cuando descubrí que también tenías otro canal en español. Este entrenamiento me ha parecido muy original. Me encantan los entrenamientos en los que utilizas banda elástica, pesas o pelota porque se añade una dificultad extra. Incluso algunas rutinas que tienes sin material yo se lo añado. Mejoré mucho mi elasticidad y fuerza contigo. Pero lo más importante es que no me da pereza hacer tus rutinas porque no son estresantes y luego siempre me siento mejor. ¡Que tengas un feliz día!

[@jananobel]

LOVE your pilates mini ball workouts, they are my absolute favourite! Please do more pilates mini ball workouts 🙏

[@behnazb6724]

This is such an amazing workout. I haven't done my pilates workouts in a few weeks and this was the perfect way to start again! I love your videos Nicole. Thank you so much! I'm always so motivated and feel amazing after. 🥰❤

[@joiconti3696]

Thank you so much Nicole! I have a love/hate relationship with the mini ball and this workout made me feel great and aligned. I appreciate you and all your videos you have to share and I'm very much open to seeing more mini ball sessions!

[@despina7278]

I can't wait to get off work and do this workout 🧘🏻‍♀️

[@ashleymurdie4650]

Love your classes and the added weight! I don’t have a Pilates ball yet, so I used an 8lb dumbbell for most of the moves. TY!

[@luzleeds5447]

Excellent workout ,great instructor very well explain, please keep having classes like this. Thank you💃

[@tereseyoga]

Thank you Nicole! I love mini ball work outs. It's interesting how the ball can make the simplest of movements more challenging. And that blue is stunning on you!!! 💙💙💙

[@ximenarodriguez818]

Like always, enjoyable, energizing and beautiful. Thank you Nicole!

[@AnkitaOm_01]

Thanks Nicole. Happy Valentine's ❤️

[@mariads2681]

Thank you very much Nicole, you really help me to have a healthy body inside! You are so generous!😍🥰

[@alessandrogiovinazzo7357]

I used a slightly deflated beach volleyball And it worked. And it's a good workout to do it twice. Usually i don't but i this case it felt like it

[@catherinedannaoui1766]

Absolutely love this one Nicole! Will be coming back to this time and time again. I'd love to see more mini ball workouts now that I have one just for these classes! Thank you always 🙏💛

[@bluelola4480]

I got myself a ball, absolutely love this routine. 😘

[@valeria8813]

missed you so much!!! your workouts made my days!!!!

[@leannemeek5381]

I used a yoga block when I could to substitute the ball. It kept me mindful to keep engaged. GREAT workout!!

[@leannemeek5381]

Or grab one of your kid's toy balls :-) THANKS NICOLE!

[@manonnova]

I really liked this session ! Thank you Nicole ❤
