I’ve created this workout based on a request from an older viewer who said ‘could you do something for us older people who are getting a bit stiff and achy’.

Hello everyone, I wanted to say thank you for your support for this video, so pleased you enjoy it. I am planning to film some more workouts for Seniors very soon. Wishing you a wonderful day, stay safe and best wishes, Rachel 😊
So glad to have found these exercises I am 60 and they are very suitable for me. Thank you.
my first time i am 83 and if you saw me WELL theres no comedy show better tham my attempt at this ,this morning but i will have another go
Thank you so much for this – as a recently retired 64 year old who spend a lifetime at a desk, this is exactly what I was looking for! I need to improve my balance and increase flexibility in my knees and hips! I look forward to doing this video on a regular basis and watching my balance improve!
May the good lord always guide u …u help me a lot my knee now is better..
We have been isolating on a tiny island off the coast of British Columbia Canada. It has been worth every minute of data to do this class every morning for the past month! My balance and joints thank you!
This is a great video. Thank you.
Rachel, you've been keeping me going since the beginning of the pandemic! Getting into pilates with your wonderful videos has been the best gift to me during these challenging times! I'm in my early sixties and have definitely improved with strength and balance. Also, because I had ballet lessons as an adolescent, your style has a natural appeal for me! Thank you for everything, and hope you are keeping well! Best wishes, Laurie
It says for Seniors, but this is great for somebody with injuries..💜
I ALWAYS enjoy your sessions ! Thanks again ! You are outstanding with the breathing in and out, and very conscientious about making sure we do exercises properly ! love to you
I have been doing
Great workout, thank you!
Thank you
The standing pilates is really enjoyable. I do it every day. And now that we are locked down is fantastic
I have to hold on to something to lift my leg up
I'm so happy to have found you, my tummy and back really needs to be strengthen. God bless you.
Excellent thanks!
Thank you. The best workout for a 73 year old.
I really needed this today.
I am not a senior but I actually loved this class…. I will be finding more or your classes and subscribing thank you for sharing your gift.
Thank for this video. I love that you included balance moves. I just took my 85 yr old mom to PT because her balance is so bad. At 53 myself I RAN to youtube (after watching her assessment) to find as many balance videos as I could. Losing weight is important but if you can't reach your toes or safely move about your day you are screwed. My mom needs to wear compression socks but she can't bend to get them on. PT gave us the device to put on your socks but she still can't do it. VERY eye opening!!
Thank you, glad I found you
Thank you. I am 77 years. Today was my first work out with you . I was introduced by a close male friend and, so I thank him. However, I have one vein in my left leg and, circulation is a problem. I intend to stick with YOU. Again, thanks for taking time for us Seniors. Stay good.
I just did this workout for the first time! This is my exactly what my body has needed! Thank you
Thank you for your upbeat non-judgmental teaching method!

Great exercises for me, as I need to go slow! Thank you.
Can pilates help with anxiety and panic attacks?
Love joining your classes very good for my aging joints. Do you have any exercises to help with prolapse? Usually watch on telly so cant always comment. Great videos. Have recommended to friends.
This was a great workout! I've enjoyed it and will certainly keep going!
From Mrs Rod. My physio told me about your videos, as I have rheumatoid arthritis just about everywhere, ok everywhere to be truthful. Not done any exercise for a few years due to total knee replacement but I am hooked. No having to get up and down floor is great (impossible for me) and I think I may have found my stomach muscle again, they disappeared when I had stomach surgery. Thank you so so much . P.S. nearly 60, couple of years to go yet but I ready feel younger
This workout is perfect for me thank you
finding you is one of the best things that has happened to my body since passing that 60 mark! i share yoiu all the time even to my sister who has done pilates for years now and she is on board. you are so clear and easy to get what you are doing loving the c hanges im feeling and seeing! thank you!!
