So, I come from the Pilates world. I am an instructor and love the reformer/carriage options for movement. (Mat, chair, tower, are fun too).
I have been to a few Solid Core and Lagree classes and I am honestly puzzled. Ya’ll cue differently and your springs are heavy (not quite Gratz heavy but still) but the focus on control and the other 5 principles of Pilates seem to carry over. I think I am missing something as the classes are fun but they are not a big challenge? I should say that I don’t resemble a Pilates Princess—I am tall, wide and lift heavy at the gym. Heavy springs and strength challenges are my jam. Pilates is a challenge for me on lighter springs and have helped me build stability and control. What am I missing? What am I not connecting with in your classes? I find a classical Pilates session much more difficult and I have been doing those for years. I really feel I am missing the secret sauce.
