Pilates
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you received from God? You are not your own; you were bought with a price. Therefore honor God with your body."
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.”
Psalm 139: 13-14
Hi my name is Mr. Kool. I am excited to be with you this Semester for Pilates. This is going to be a great course which will be a ton of fun. God calls us to treat our body as a Temple so in Pilates, you will learn multiple ways to treat your body as a Temple for God. I look forward to working together this Semester in all that we do and having fun while doing so.

GREAT 30 minute Pilates Ab video! Do it on your own!
I liked this one because it’s really similar to what we’ve done in class, so you will know most of the exercises. I also like that they added the “squats” at the end, you could really feel those!
It started all on the ground, and you stayed on the ground for the majority of the workout. I felt like this one was more relaxing and centered.
This one is the most difficult. From the beginning there are different exercises what we have done in class. It works muscles that you aren't used to working, and that made it a much harder workout to do.
This one is also very challenging. The hardest exercise for me was when you put your arms to the side into 90º angles and bring your torso up with your hands, while keeping your core in, while staying relatively straight (not unevenly curved up).
