If you’re looking for a class that offers a balance of strength work along with stretchy and relaxing exercises, you’re in the right place. Join Alisa as she takes May through a mix of classical Mat work along with some favorite exercises using Joe Pilates’ springs. You don’t need a Cadillac for this class, Alisa uses only the apparatus on a Tower or Wall Unit so if you have a Rollback Bar, Legs Springs and a Push Through Bar, you’re good to go.
Hi, Alisa--my body has been "wonky" all week--knee swollen, back and shoulder pain...just finished this workout and found great moments of stretching and strengthening in my weak spots. Thanks for reminding me to slow it down some days!

Intrigued by the furry bits on the leg springs.Are they Gratz straps and do they tighten around the foot?

Hi Gaile, Those are a cover that The Pilates Guy sells--they don't tighten the loop but they do provide a little softness and you can remove them for washing. They came with a used set of leg springs I bought.
Really great class to learn from Alisa. I am just learning to teach tower and this class has been such a help to get a better understanding of some of the movements. Also will be great stuff to use on a few of our clients. As always, thanks soooo much for providing such awesome info. in all your classes!

Thanks Sheila! We will be adding more Tower classes in the future too. There's so much you can do with it.
This is a great help for my teaching skills. Thank you very much, your work is truly appreciated.
This class is great! More tower at this level please. I've used these exercises in my classes; they are great for people not yet used to the Tower. And I second the request for classes for clients with neurological issues.
Total body bliss! Looking forward to more tower classes at this level. Can’t wait to repeat this one! Thank you so much!
Alisa, I hope you do eventually do another but I’m getting a ton of benefit and enjoyment out repeating this one. I really love your classes!
