Pop Pilates is an upbeat workout, where you can expect to move to the beat of top-rated popular music while completing Pilates-inspired moves. POP Pilates is a strength and flexibility workout and can be done in bare feet on nothing but a yoga mat. There’s absolutely no equipment needed (other than the mat), because all of the resistance work is done using your own bodyweight.​Modifications are provided for nearly all of the moves. There is no jumping around, no confusing or fast-moving choreography, and there is plenty of stretching, which feels just plain good.
EMpowerEd Training gives you clear direction, offers options for making each move more or less challenging and gives coaching cues to make sure your form is correct and on point — and most importantly – makes sure you are getting the most you can out of the move.​emily@empowered.nz/ 0210 889 9084https://www.empowered.nz/https://www.facebook.com/poppilateswithemily/
