Instructor: Maya Magennis //
Class Type: Pilates //
Difficulty: Beginner //
Body Focus: Upper Body //

Twenty minutes of upper-body Pilates using light hand weights—two or three pounds is plenty. Maya opens by mobilizing the shoulders, then moves through controlled arm work that builds strength without strain. It is a beginner-friendly class you can do with weights or none at all.
