10 Minute Morning Wake Up and Stretch | At Home Pilates for Mobility, Strength and Flexibility

[@elilingil]

This is my go-to morning tune-up. It's surprising how good my body feels after doing this stretching routine.

[@eimears4460]

I have been doing this regularly over the past year and it absolutely loosens you up in the morning. 😊

[@kirstenprice2750]

Thank you girl for making these easy ones I wouldn’t be doing them if they were too hard you’re a real one I appreciate your channel so much

[@janettej]

I absolutely love this routine , and do it regularly....short and sweet , but great to do before a power walk. Thank you x

[@margaretsomerville2510]

have been following your sessions for 2 years as I gradually recover from several health setbacks. WOW you have had sessions for every level of ability and stamina. The ability to follow arm stretches has been gradual and enhance recovery. Balance is my next target and trust you have a sequence of sessions to assist me in reaching my goal. You integrate each muscle group at a pace that is restorative. Many thanks and kudos to you Rachel.

[@TheGirlWithThePilatesMat]

Wow 🤩 Thank you so much Margaret, I hope you are going from strength to strength. With best wishes, Rachel 🤗

[@sheilamacleod7973]

[@dianebrown2529]

I'm back... again after chemo and radiation and recovery. Your workouts are the best at getting me moving, encouraging me and getting my body strength again. Thank you, Rachel

[@suedepinto2016]

This was a treat! I love stretching, sit a lot, so I added this to today’s 20min standing session on the October week 2 playlist for 30 minutes of delightful movement!💪🏻🤗 thanks for all you do!

Not morning here but I wanted to squeeze in a quick workout on New Year's Eve to prepare to get 2023 off on the right foot (so to speak)! This was perfect. Very grateful to you, Rachel, for all you do. Sending love to you and your family.

Hi Rachel, hello from Australia. I am recovering from a broken wrist and found this video a good one to improve the mobility of my wrist. The different placement of hands, hips shoulders and turning above the head were all helpful

Hi Rachel I loved watching this but with vertigo I didn't dare try it. I would love you see your video from 3 years ago where you do your 10 min wake up routine, I do that one most days it would be cool to see it done in your beautiful new studio. Thank you for all you do for us. 😍
