In today’s world this workout is considered the Advanced Mat. In Joe Pilates world, it was simply The Mat and everyone did it in 40 minutes or less. Joe expected you to do your mat on days you weren’t in his studio. If he asked you to do it in front of him, he didn’t count out the repetitions or tell you what exercise comes next, he expected you to know it. In this class, Jay works with a group of his own regular students in much the way Joe would have, with less talk and more opportunity for the students to listen to their own bodies. Repetitions in this class are 3-5x per exercise.
