Just a question, but 1 hour isn’t too long? Sounds like you can get bored fast… Or is it just me that enough 10 min exercises
This was the PERFECT class after a long run I had done yesterday (17km). I feel a lot looser in the muscles and more energised to take on the rest of the day! Thanks for this <3
What a wonderful Pilates exercisethank
you Nicole for this encouraging, challenging and inspiring experience
I have been consistently doing this 1-hour full body pilates class at least once or twice a week for almost 2 months now and I love it. I like the transition, sequence, flow and pace of all the poses. Background music and color scheme contribute too. I would highly appreciate if you would come up with another 1-hour combo barre and pilates class with new poses soon. I am used to an hour pilates class and 45-minutes barre class at my gym so the length is never an issue for me. Your effort in coming up with amazing classes is very much appreciated! Thank you so much Nicole!
OMG Nicole! This session killed me I would definitely like to see more videos of this long:)
Great video. I’ve a long day in front of me today helping at a market so this give me a good stretch this morning
You are amazing and very easy to follow! Thank you for a great workout.
LOVE it!! I really like your classes, your style of teaching, everything. Keep it up!
First attempt for the hour version after a few shorter classes. I feel amazing
I really enjoyed doing this video because I can really feel how much I’ve improved since the first one. All the exercises feel a little easier and i can feel new strength in different areas of my body.
Love it! This is my fist time doing Pilates. I’ve been practicing Vinyasa Yoga and this session is a good change. Would love to have another 1-hr session. Thanks, Nicole!
Love your class Nicole. You have made me start to love Pilates. I have built my core strength thanks to you. Love your narration:) Lots of love
I love this pilates workout. I am new to pilates, but I was able to get most of the positions correctly, and Nicole does an amazing job of explaining each movement and position. The workout really pushes each body part and really covers the whole body. The stretches between exercises do an excellent job of relieving any built up tension. After doing the workout, my muscles are tired, but I also feel invigorated! This is one of the best workouts I have ever done! Thank you so much for posting this video!
Amaazing!!!! My sister and I found your channel a couple days ago and love your workouts!!!!
Absolutely adore the longer version!! Thank you for the inspiration!
This is my second time doing this workout. I love it so much! Nicole creates the best routines that work the full body instead of constant core work. Your classes are my favorite. Thank you so much, Nicole! More long full body workouts please
Thank you for the awesome workout I want to lose my belly and thighs fat. Please Suggest to me What workouts are good for me? Thanks in advance ☺️
Nicole! you are a queen. these longer workouts are the best and are perfect for lockdown. Thank you so much for making workouts fun and keep the booty and ab burns coming <3 <3 love from Melbourne... p.s. you are an inspiration x
This was excellent! Please share more 1h workouts! Thank you!
Such a beautiful soul and such a beautiful video. Loved it, please make more 1hr long pilates sessions:)
Just finished this series. I’m doing this once a week. My fav complete workout! Bravo Nicole ❤️
Dittothis is one of the best pilates workout I’ve ever had! I just subscribed to your channel and am excited to do more:)
Thx Girl!! Wish you had more time to do more. This one was great! See you soon Nicole!! sending love, peace and great energy your way!!!
This is an amazing Pilates workout Nicole. I would love another 60 minute workout with you. This is saved as one of my favourites. Your style, instruction and calm voice is so relaxing. You forgot you are working out! xx
Love it, perfect pace, nice relaxing music, a very soothing voice narrating and deceivingly hard exercises. Please, could we have at least another 1 hour class in the future, to alternate?? Thank you very much for this class.
Loving this 4 part beginners. New to this so it’s extremely helpful and very informative thank you so much
I really loved it. And I really love your workout videos because not only they fresh up my body but also they help me release all of tensions and stresses that I have in my mind, thank you
I LOVED this workout so much! This was a wonderful flow that really worked and stretched my whole body. Highly recommend this Pilates class to anyone who has a little extra time and is up for feeling amazing!
I absolutely loved this. You are such an excellent teacher and I appreciate how thoughtfully you teach and also how challenging your classes are. I am hooked!
The gyms are closed because of the Covid19 pandemic. I am so grateful for all the youtube exercise videos. I have tried several Pilates videos, but I just stumbled on Beth’s routine today. I am so happy to have found it. I will be doing this routine daily. Thank you. I feel great! I love it!
Love how slow and controlled this work out was! Thank you for a great body shaking workout. <3
Amazing workout Nicole. Found my love of Pilates because of your classes! Thankyou.
I really enjoyed this workout!! It was challenging but absolutely doable
Absolutely loved this workout thankyou so much! Please could you post more 1 hour full body pilates classes I desperately need them! xx
Happy teacher’s day Beth! We celebrate in Mexico today! When I try the hundred my neck hurts:( what can I do? Thank you!
I love the detailed instruction for positioning, abdominals and breathing.
The best Pilates workout, also all your videos give amazing results, thank you Nicole
That was our first hour class with her, it was tough but it went by very quickly. Her classes are always well planned and our whole body feels exercise. Thank you.
great beginners video, but while doing half leg circles (reverse for both legs) I am hearing some sounds but not feeling any pain. is it ok?
This is really the most amazing Pilates workout I ever had and I am proud of myself to do it perfectly and I enjoyed every second….million thanks Nicole…sorry for any typo writing because my hands are sweat and slipping lol
Love your workouts!! Would love more hour long workouts!!!
Love the classes, are you going to do any more 1 hour classes hope so
New subscriber! Did u not vlog the chargers chiefs game?? anyway, great work!!
Hi Beth, even though I like this video, I couldn’t perform the pelvic curl, what could I do to gain strength to do it? I’ve done pilates before but not for the last year
Are you sure about intermediate level Ifelt like a little bit advanced It was amazing! Thank you so much
Totally loved this workout. The soft music, calm voice and nice background made it perfect for those days you want to workout well but not jump around to a lot of noise. Thank you!
These moves are usually so easy but they hit differently when you slow down and emphasize on each body part. Great workout! Thank you!
What a great lesson! I really enjoyed it and hope to see more of your 1hour lessons.
i LOVED this!!!! would love to see more hour length videos from you because you are becoming my favorite fitness channel!!!
I love this 1 hour workout and this really great pilates I ever had of all your channels.Thank you so much and I am looking forward for your other pilates exercises
Thanks for another terrific workout — just what I needed from quarantine here in Washington, DC.
A fabulous class. Thank you. Ive been doing yoga recently but can recognise now that i need to combine this with yoga. I found several excercises quite challenging which is good!
Woah, that was challenging but fantastic. Great Pilates workout, thank you so much!
Nicole, I can’t thank you enough for your generosity in posting these outstanding exercise classes and helping us stay healthy! I am so grateful to you. I just completed this exercise and I am feeling every muscle in my body. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Why have you not given options for people with back issues osteo, scoliosis, bulging discs??? I can see what your trying to explain however this is not a true interpretation of a set up in a lying supine position.
Thank you that has given me a good insight. I’m starting a Pilates class next week. You are so relaxed and I hope I can get relaxed too, as well as exercising in a gentle way. Thank you.
The first two exercises with knees bent and let’s apart is very uncomfortable for me. Many not enough hip flexibility?
I have been trying the “Beginners Pilates class” training in 4 parts. Part 1 and 2 going great, part 3 is a bit challenging for me when I have to put my legs out, doing the back work. Is there something I can do in this section that might be easier? I am having trouble with keeping my feet on the ground in this position while doing the exercise. I have looked ahead to part 4 and that looks completely doable. I am only having trouble with this one position. Love the routine, by the way.
I love your videos because you guide us through with the breathing part which is very important. Thank you
The best pilates for beginners Everything explained so well! I really want to exercise pilates but I thought that I will never learn it until I found your videos Thank you
Nice work and creative in terms of the exercises’ flow. Did not want to stop and that is quite a great surprise. Thank you!!!
Thank you for these, I just did parts 1 and 2. I have never done pilates before, but i have been exercising for years. I fancy doing something different. I will be back tomorrow to do parts 3 and 4
Hi Rachel, thank you for these great intro classes. I went to a class locally but find this so much better to go over and over the same moves. I have a question as I don’t want to do myself any damage, Like someone some months ago my hips seem to pop not only when I do the leg circles (I have now seen you advice and will try for smaller movements) but in my right leg I also get the clicking\popping when I do the simple leg raises. Am I ok to do them or is there any chance I’m making things worse. I have a stiff and sometimes painful lower back. Thanks So much. Kathy
I have loved these four classes. Having listened very closely to all your instructions and getting stronger, thank your (I am now doing your intermediate classes but come back to this once a week) I wondered if you have considered putting the whole thing together as part 5. It is a little disruptive stopping and fast forwarding if you want to use the exercises as a workout. It would be cool to have them all together (less time needed!) and one can always refer back to the other parts. Just a suggestion because I love the idea of the beginner x 4 videos and tell everyone about them.
Found you here and been going for almost 2 weeks. I’m over 70 and find them great for having to stay home. My new favorite.
loved it! strong and steady building up strength without injuring ourselves 😉 thank u!
Hi..i follow you but i have problem with my neck when lifting the head..can i do the excerise in another way..thanks so much
Very pleased that I have found this site. The instructions are clear and the lessons are the right length. Feels like a site I will stick with and progress. Thank you.

I love these beginner’s video and your kind personality in them! I do have one question. When I do the half leg circles, my hips pop. This happens for both versions of the half circles, but it is especially bad for the inhale out and exhale circling ones. Do you have any tips for this? Thank you so much!
I felt so confident when doing the teaser! Having specific exercises leading up to teaser which helped prepare my body for the exercise was super helpful. I struggled at the end with seal though. Most of the struggle came from losing my balance. I’m sure it was just because my body was not used to the exercise so I am hopeful that when it comes up again I will be able to do it better.
I could hear and feel a popping sound doing the leg circles?
Very goodtried during lockdownquick and effectivemany thanks!
I love your workouts. I’ve been doing Pilates for over 20-years and am picky about what I like. I recently discovered your workouts while I’m recovering from rotator cuff surgery. I still have to modify a lot of the exercises (straight arm planks especially) but each time I do this workout I notice that I can do more and more. I’m so looking forward to the day I can do it without modifications. I’m not young and have been doing You Tube workouts for many years and this is the first time I left a review.
Lovely to not have a cheesy American accent, best free you tube video for beginners with lots of reminding on
the correct breathing. Thankyou
Loved loved loved this workout Nicole! You’re a great teacher. Please do more full length ones! ☺️
loved it! did it early morning, before breakfast! perfect to start a new day. it is short but super effective and complete. Thank you Beth, as always <3
I have been trying all of your workouts recently and now look forward to it as a highlight in my day each day! I love your creativity and variety. Thank you so much!
Thanks for introducing me to L’aupaire! Love their sound.:)
Have done all 4 videos, will repeat until I get better. Many thanks for these videos well described and can keep up with you,some are far too fast.
I started doing a group pilates class a few months ago and since Lockdown I needed to try a daily pilates session. I tried a few but always returned to Beth. Will continue these sessions even when I can return to my group class. Thank you.
I am getting back my strength after mastectomy.
This is a great workout.
Thank you for posting all you classes, I have found them not easy, but easy to follow and maintain good form.
Love the 1 hour class, could do with a few more stretches at the end. Maybe 5 more mins?
Hi Beth, I enjoyed the session. Although I had no idea what teaser was, I was able to do it and was happy about that. Most enjoyable were the role overs.
Thank you for this video. I really learned from the teaser variations.
This helped me ease the tension in my upper back muscles. Thank you so much for being awesome!
Beth, you came to work with me and I did this workout during my lunch break. I felt it incredibly difficult to slow myself down and relax into the movement. BUT, by the end I felt so relaxed and it was amazing how easily the 3 variations of teaser came after all the prep work. Great workout, thanks for bringing peace to my day:)
Any suggestions for those of us who aren’t able to circle our legs when we come down from the roll-over? Thanks!
Thanks! I cannot do the roll-up. My feet keep trying to rise and i just dont have the strength yet. Is there a modification i should do in meantime please? Thanks,Colin.
Hi Nicole! I love your workouts, thank you so much for sharing them. I only have one bit of constructive criticism, sometimes the lag between the image and the narration makes it hard to follow along, specially when it comes to the breathing. Just something to keep in mind. Greetings from Domincan Republic.:)
This was one of my favorite videos we have worked through. I have not ever felt as comfortable as I did today in Teaser! Working through these exercises slowly and building up to them really helped me to have the strength to do the full teaser. I did have a couple of issues in other exercises though. For roll over I was able to roll over without too many issues but when bringing the legs back down I gained too much momentum and would at times bring my head up. Is this more of an issue of core strength? Then as far as seal, I was able to do it a few times but in the last time rolling back it pulled at my back/ shoulder muscles. I am sure this is just the newness of the exercise but I look forward to mastering that one as it did feel great for my back as well as the different stretch for my arms/ legs.
This was a great workout. I would love to see more 1 hour workouts.
I really loved this workout video! I usually enjoy a faster pace, but I really liked the slow pace of this because I was able to make sure that I was really engaging and felt those stretching sensations. While doing the teasers, I felt very calm, strong, and centered, which was definitely a new feeling! One thing I did have issue with was the very last exercise (seal) I felt a lot of work in my neck and upper back, but I’m assuming that’s because my body isn’t sure how to properly execute that exercise… but I’m looking forward to reviewing it!
I enjoyed this video. I felt that my teaser was much stronger than it normally is because we were preparing for it the entire video. I felt challenged when we were doing the variations of teaser, but this is not supposed to be easy. I really enjoyed the seal at the end. I feel like I was better at doing the seal than I am at rolling like a ball. For the seal I engaged much more than do for rolling like a ball so I am sure that helped me in getting back up and maintaining my balance at the top. Involving my arms also helped me curve my spine properly, which I sometimes struggle with in rolling like a ball.
I really enjoyed this workout. When it started saying we were going to end with teaser, I was dreading it. All of the workouts prior though really helped though and once I got to teaser, I didn’t struggle as much as I thought I would. Doing the seal at the end was very hard for me though. I kept falling over but I was eventually able to get it for a little bit.
My first time doing Pilates and I absolutely loved this workout, it was challenging and made me move in a very different way than traditional fast-paced workouts. I loved the hour long workout I feel very accomplished completing it
How do you so calm and smiling:D? I was cursing myself at some point but I kept going!! What a great session! Thank you!
Hi Beth. Just did this routine and I enjoyed it. Roll-over has always been hard for me. It took me a long time to understand that concept of pilates exercises layering. And to find similar moves to help my personal challenging ones.
Im thinking short spine on reformer now when I attempt my roll over. Whatever helps! Thank you. Im new to your channel.
