Aloha & welcome! I’m very excited to announce a brand new 2026 New Years Challenge: Back to the Basics. Don’t let the title fool you, this 14 day challenge is not considered easy by any means but the slow and controlled movements are focused on the deepest set of abs, your transverse abdominals. One of my favorite things about Pilates is its versatility - we can still do difficult exercises like our supine abs series or planks that support a strong and healthy spine without compromising any low back injuries. So although it may seem slow and simple, we’ll be purposely engaging our transverse abs or TVA with every single movement. The only prop you’ll need is a small squishy ball. Purchase one here: https://amzn.to/3G0ZqMJ Each day we’ll be jumping straight into movement but if you’d like a warm up / stretch series, click here: https://youtu.be/eqQJGJty3Zc The first 5 days of this series will be free here on YouTube but if you're interested in the full challenge check out my Online Pilates Program: CLKB.org or https://christinalkblack.uscreen.io/pages/clkbpilates There are over 250 Pilates workouts, ranging from contemporary to classical mat, TRX and circuit training, and outdoor Pilates workouts filmed on the beautiful island of O’ahu and multiple challenges and series! Take the guesswork out of planning your workout with my Weekly Workout Schedule and a monthly Pilates calendar. I offer a one month, 3 month or annual subscription and every plan starts with a free 7 day trial. In this video we’ll review what and where your transverse abs are and how to engage them so you’ll be ready to go with movement on Day 1. Mahalo for joining and I’ll see you on the mat! ✨More info at CLKB.org✨ Instagram: @christinalkblack Facebook: @christinalkblack00 Pinterest: @christinalkblack **DISCLAIMER: Please consult your physician or health care professional before starting any exercise program.

Not to mention, you have no idea who may have ZERO online presence and why. Whether it be for their jobs or if it’s more serious such as if they have a restraining order against someone, you have no right to post where and when they take a Pilates class.
