Basic Pilates Mat Workout for Dancers | Kathryn Morgan

[@morganalexandra340]

I was watching this in my bed just laying down, when she said you are doing great I was like thank you I am really good at laying down 😂

[@RollOverBeethoven63]

Morgan Alexandra same 😂😂

[@brietoujours1343]

Wow.🤦🏽‍♀️😆 I am just trying to follow along and I am not doing the full sets because I am so out of shape but am getting back into shape and will be strong again soon. For now I am just lying on my mat feeling exhausted. I do appreciate all these workouts though.

[@pazkagan3658]

Please upload more Pilates workout videos! 🙏🏻

[@lepetitquichotte]

I still do this workout after so many years. It just works for me! Especially after a month off any dance/physical activity or if i want to warm up and strenghten my centre. Thank you again, Kathryn!

[@strawberry1025]

You are so fit! No red face, no breathlessness as you talk us through this. I'd be like a puffing tomato.

[@bunheadladymelody3355]

[@zaraxael1778]

[@bunheadladymelody3355]

i love this and to be honest I cannot find a certain Pilates class for Ballet anywhere. But this is what I'm looking for. can't wait to do it

[@gatekeeper9447]

Thank you so much for this Kathryn! I have been recovering from a work injury and I was so surprised that I didn't reaggravate anything!

[@sabrinatscha2554]

Great video. Thank you for not having annoying background music.🌺🌸🌻

[@dancer2189]

I loved this I've done this twice in the span of 24 hours! I'm gonna do it everyday! Please post more Pilates for dancers!!! Love your channel!!!!

[@gabbacado]

I’ve been doing this workout for over a year now and was ready for more of a challenge! I added 3 pound ankle weights and it’s so much harder! Definitely recommend if you’re trying to up your strength!

[@houseofaims]

My 12yo daughter has just gotten obsessed with ballet and we are loving your videos!! Thank you! : )

[@madalinarenee78]

This is exactly what I did in my ballet class and I got so fit from it. I can’t wait to start doing these again! Thank you for posting

[@ashlynhatch3989]

this is helping me make such a difference, thank you! It has helped my left side tremendously and helped my core. the first time, I couldn't control my hips to stop them from moving. Now i have gained so much more control. thank you again!

[@mryan3847]

Today was my second day following along with this video. I stumbled on it with the intention of starting Pilates again. I found the exercises just for "ballet" dances a nice boon. I danced from 12-22 and loved it so much. (I'm 42 now.) I didn't start ballet until age 16, but I LOVED IT. I did make into point, though I was very good. Thats OK I STILL LOVED IT. I'm looking forward to watching/following more of your videos. Yes pilates/ballet workouts.

[@sophcait]

I loved this! Much more dance focused than my normal Pilates class. We do that whole clam/leg series though, and it kills me every time :)

[@maryshank8546]

I know this is a rather old video, but it it possible for you to disable the mid-roll ads? I got 5-6 ads right in the middle of the video, which really messed up the flow of the workout (lots of awkward pausing with my leg up in the air!). Even with the ads, it's an excellent workout, so thank you for helping this out-of-shape dancer get through quarantine!

[@michellehaakensen]

Thank you so much for this video Kathryn! I am a huge fan of your basic series - the arm and plie one REALLY improved my technique. therefore I wondered if you would consider doing an arabesque basic video (how do I turnout that leg, where should I put my arms), an attitude basic video and a basic video about the waltz step? those are steps I reallt struggle with... Hope it was ok to ask for this. I know you must be so so busy

[@ashlynhatch3989]

Ok so things is literally the only follow along pilates for dancers that I could find. I am a late starter at ballet because of my family's money situation, so I've been dancing for three seasons. I am so determined to become a professional dancer, even though I started at 12 and now I'm 13. But look at Misty Copeland! Anyways, I have a month between the spring and summer semester, and I have devoted myself to working on my technique so I have a chance at getting on pointe this fall. I have the foot strength and flexibility, but my technique is lacking and so is my upper body strength. I did this for the first time today, and let's just say I had no idea how hard it was. I alsi had no idea how bad I am at controlling my body. So I have decided to do this everyday for a month, followed by my stretching routine and a thirty minute Barre. I will probably follow along to your Barre class in the summer when I'm not packing in studying with ballet. Thank you so much Kathryn, I have no idea what I would do without you. You have helped me so much, and I couldn't of made it this far without your tutorials and help. Ilysm! 😁

[@maureenseel118]

LOVE Pilates. Fantastic for strength training and toning without bulking.

[@once4all125]

always the best, thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@rogergeier4670]

I do this workout all the time and it really made a difference thank you

[@nathaliemaullin6590]

This is great! Thank you!!! All of us adult ballet dancers at Westside Ballet in Santa Monica are devotees of your channel. No one else has such a great attitude. XO

[@marissa_luu]

Thank you so much Katie! Please continue to do more pilates workouts, maybe even longer sessions! Loved the video!!

[@clairelanglands2730]

Love this workout because it helps me get stronger and improve my dancing.

[@briarrose5208]

Thanks! This is great. I can’t do the whole routine, but I can do some of every exercise and work up from there. I will do these on the days I don’t take ballet class. And I’ll check out your stretch video too.

[@hollygeorge7902]

This is what I was looking for, a basic Pilates workout. Very nice.

[@lisamariarellanes6376]

Great! Thank you, Kathryn! :-) I've been working with your ballet classes and now this one too, almost everyday day! Wonderful! Enjoy your teaching so much!

[@lilli9419]

love this video! love that these exercises are directly targeted for dancers i would love another longer more intense video. but untill then ill be visiting this video regularly

[@jasmynes7651]

Yay I'm glad I found a good Pilates video. It's like the one in dance my dance company but free 😂

[@margarethaubrich2747]

Love this, b/c it’s short. I do it on Pilates days, like the glute medius emphasis !

[@tamei7006]

Awesome workout. Katie, you're a warrior, just breezing through this!!

[@SarahsFabChannel]

Awesome Pilates workout!

[@pryeshaaa]

Yes. It was really nice!

[@SonniesOriginals]

I'm not a dancer (wish I was!) but I love pilates, and this looks like a great work out!

[@genesisdiaz7071]

I'm always doing some of these stretches for fun and I never knew that it was pilates!

[@charlesconybeare]

Genesis Diaz same!

[@marioncarson6666]

Lovely. Perfect. Pilates is new to me but seems great. Thank you

[@amy8438]

Thanks Katie about to come back after Christmas/summer break and definitely needed this :)

[@Romari7]

Its 10:11 at night, I just did this... not gonna lie, it kind of killed me... I need to work my abs, hips and back a lot more than I thought... Thanks Katie!!!

[@alyssafowler9124]

This is my favorite workout of yours Katie! Can you please do more?

[@alliefilby-mcintosh1466]

Would love a new one of these for covid19 isolation!

[@LinaSingers]

I find myself coming back to this when I don't have time for a barre or the entire strength & stretch, but there are so many ads in the middle of exercises, it is rather difficult to follow along when they interrupt at the worst time possible. I know that this is KZbin's fault though.

[@CC-wx3fz]

i agree i was doing it on a old ipad and it takes forever to load ads and ssometimes plane out gliches and i have to start the wholle video over aand find my place

[@terpsiv8305]

Yay the work outs are back!!! I'm doing the 2017 challenge and this one will be amazing!!! Thank you Katie!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@rachaelhirst7818]

[@sarahmcvey9871]

This is very helpful! Thank you!!!

[@YesCountMeIn]

Love this workout, question though - at about 6:30 after leg Scissors where you just move the leg up and down, at that moment I could feel the popping sound from my lower back - is this an indication of any condition? should I continue to skip this movement? Thanks anyone for answering in advance

[@sarahn.4775]

Love this so much! Thank you for sharing! Could you do more Pilates videos?

[@ellagoulet]

I would love more workouts!!

[@monikaveleva5439]

Hi Katie, thanks so much for this workout. When I am doing the developpées and front to back my body rocks a lot if I don´t have one arm on the floor. Do you have any advice to correct this? Is it because my core is too weak?

[@serenaorione4239]

Thank you, really useful!! :)

[@jlaurs4689]

Thank you so much! Jesus LOVES you ❤‍🔥

[@liliawolf1621]

[@emileasmontaite2479]

[@CassandraTumasz]

Thank you! Loved this

[@chochee07]

Man I’m so unfit that I had to take brakes in between Thank you for this💕

[@lindseybelsky4065]

loved it!!!

[@charlesconybeare]

I'm currently only able to take one class a week and I'm a preteen, is there any chance that I can be a professional if I work hard enough at home?

[@marissak185]

Charlotte Conybeare Being a professional has nothing to do with how many classes you take. To work towards being a professional dancer you have to work hard, be persistent, and be near flawless in your dancing. Some people are naturally great at dancing, while others need hours on hours of practice everyday. Eventually you would need to take classes more than just once, but for now just keep up doing what you can at home.

[@liliachang4911]

love this

[@sheriarichey4820]

Amazing

[@nataliewinik5104]

Kathryn, I've been doing this Pilates workout for almost 2 weeks. As I was stretching today, I felt really tight and was wondering why?

How do you avoid rolling off your tail bone when you roll up from seal and such?
