Hehe Nikki, I have that one too but I just can't bring myself to do it without feeling like an absolute d!ck.
My lack of coordination and the knowledge that my Hubby would also be pissing himself if I tried out the moves on him puts me right off!]]> Fri, 27 Oct 2006 08:39:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81676&title=pilates-anyone#81676 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81662&title=pilates-anyone#81662 Author: my2angels

i did yoga - pre-baby, and fell over. i had visions of it being relaxing and all about breathing, but they move fast, and i did preggie yoga - which was w bit weird and "feel your baby and see him with your inner eye", and Lewis muttering "mmmmgivetheswarmimoneymmmm", did not help with the giggles either. Not for me I'm afraid. I wanna try pilates though. anyone else thought it was pronounced to rhyme with pirate? also, when i say it all I can think about is that awful madonna soung "something something latte, yoga and pilates..."]]> Thu, 26 Oct 2006 21:12:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81640&title=pilates-anyone#81640 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81620&title=pilates-anyone#81620 Author: Two Blondinis

I did the Windsor Pilates and yoga leading up to our wedding day. That worked REALLY well, I lost heaps and toned up nicely.

I've been doing a bit of walking (pushing the buggy lol) and have signed up to do yoga with my sister.

Can't wait to see this baby jelly belly gone! I was very lucky and didn't put on any weight when preggers (but I was a size 14 before and still am) was back in my jeans in 2 weeks but this bit of excess is starting to bug me!]]> Thu, 26 Oct 2006 20:39:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81620&title=pilates-anyone#81620 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81389&title=pilates-anyone#81389 Author: my2angels

I tried pilates..but hated it - i felt every injury i had ever had come back with a vengeance...and I used to dance and be very sporty...

just another opinion....be careful and ask questions if it hurts...]]> Wed, 25 Oct 2006 19:58:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81344&title=pilates-anyone#81344 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81338&title=pilates-anyone#81338 Author: kebakat

caramel, i love pilates!! i have the winsor pilates dvd and it's the only way i can tone up my thighs and flatten my jelly belly. honestly, give it a go!
you should see results in a couple of weeks from starting. it does take a bit to get the breathing down, but you'll know you've done it right cos you can feel it! ]]> Wed, 25 Oct 2006 17:11:52 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81305&title=pilates-anyone#81305 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81287&title=pilates-anyone#81287 Author: meow

My partner used to do pilates lol.. they had someone come around once a week to their work.. I've never tried, but good luck!

Nikki, a girl from my school used to do ballet then switched to contemporary, she trained for a few years at Te Whaea, now she dances with Footloose.. my friend and I go and see just about every show when she is dancing in Wgtn.. maybe you could follow her path lol, forget about the degree and just dance ]]> Wed, 25 Oct 2006 15:32:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81287&title=pilates-anyone#81287 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81274&title=pilates-anyone#81274 Author: nikkitheknitter

My sister mentioned this morning about starting dance classes again. I sooo want to! I'd love to do contemporary.
But then I have talked about it so many times and not actually got off my butt. So we'll see.

Have fun with the Pilates!]]> Wed, 25 Oct 2006 15:06:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81274&title=pilates-anyone#81274 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4199&PID=81269&title=pilates-anyone#81269 Author: mummy_becks

In an attempt to rid myself of the post-baby jelly belly I've decided to start pilates.
I don't really want to lose a lot of weight, as I've always been a bit on the skinny side. But I've got a lot of flabby skin and jelly around my tummy that I'm keen to tone back into shape.
Are there any of you out there who do/have done pilates?
How effective did you find it for toning up?
Is it simple to learn? (I'm a bit uncoordinated, lol!)

TIA!
