What is Lazy Girl Pilates?
Pilates has a reputation for being intimidating, expensive, and only for the super flexible and coordinated. Classes, if you can even get to them, can be confusing and even boring, with endless talking and not enough moving. But what if we flipped the script??
Picture this: Working on your six-pack while lounging in bed, stretching your legs in the shower, tightening your butt on the commute, opening your hips at work, or even toning your arms on the toilet. You can sneak in Pilates all day long without stepping foot in a class, watching a DVD, or shelling out extra cash. No mirror required—just a bit of creativity and a lot of fun!
The Book
Pilates guru Kara Tatelbaum’s Lazy Girl Pilates: Morning eliminates the need for early wake-ups or skipped workouts with quick, easy fitness hacks. As a working mother of two, Tatelbaum understands time constraints and offers practical solutions like Wall Push Ups in the shower while conditioner sets in, and the Adios Wall Hang against the door on the way out. By developing exercises that fit easily into any daily routine, Tatelbaum makes Pilates accessible to everyone, fitting into your life rather than the other way around!
“The inspiration for Lazy Girl Pilates came from clients needing workouts that didn’t require lengthy class commitments. The best part was designing exercises and routines around their apartments using what they had - a bed, shower, walls. Nothing too complicated or time-consuming. As a professional choreographer, this was a creative challenge that showed how maximizing your time can make Pilates hassle-free and results-driven. Lazy Girl Pilates makes working out less random and less dependent on others.” - Kara Tatelbaum
