Program Overview

Sara’s Core & Body Connection is a three-week core-focused program designed to help you feel strong and confident as you improve your core strength, balance, flexibility and posture.

Each week includes four Pilates sessions:

  • Core & Lower Body

  • Core & Upper Body

  • Dynamic Full Body & Core

  • Express Core (Optional)

Each session will take you 15-35 minutes to complete, including a variety of balance-based exercises to stabilise and strengthen your core whilst improving your flexibility and posture, as well as movements to target other areas of your body for a full-body challenge. 

The optional 15-minute Express Core class can be completed for an extra challenge or to replace a full-length session on days when you’re short on time.

The program also includes two LISS (low-intensity steady state) cardio sessions and an optional HIIT (high-intensity interval training) cardio session to increase fitness, as well as a recovery stretching session to improve mobility and flexibility.

Equipment

What you’ll need

You can do Sara’s Core & Body Connection Challenge at home or in the gym - wherever you have enough space for a yoga mat and a few key pieces of equipment! If you don’t have access to dumbbells, you can substitute for household items of similar weight instead, like cans of food or bottles of water.
