Yoga

In our Intro To Yoga, we introduced poses and movements in extensive detail. We nailed down our form and technique and began to get a taste of the yoga flow.

In this series of lessons, we will spend the majority of our time flowing! We will take all of the poses and movements we learned in our Intro To Yoga program and flow for awesome 30-minute workouts.

Each lesson, you can also be on the lookout for 2-3 NEW poses or variations of movements that will help to continue growing our foundation of yoga.

For example, today, we will introduce Rag Doll and Side Stretch. We will break those down in more detail soon!

Other than that, our main flow focus today is on twisting. We will give plenty of variations to twisting, so be sure to pick the one you can execute with good form and technique. Let’s get started!

Pilates

Welcome back to another pilates workout! Today our focus is on centering.

In order to focus on centering, we need to learn about our pilates box. Imagine a line from shoulder to shoulder, hip bone to hip bone, and then two lines up the side of your body. That is your pilates box!

The goal of class today is to keep your pilates box as centered as possible! Let’s go ahead and get started.

In today’s class, the Pilates exercises include:

1) Hundreds
2) Roll-Up
3) Single Leg Circles
4) Single Leg Stretch
5) Star Pose
6) Side Lying Exercise
7) Seal
8) Push-Ups
9) Rotate & Twist

Lift your head and neck towards your core
Pump your arms 100 times by your side like you are splashing water
Option to extend your legs to make this movement more difficult

Roll-Up:
Starting on your back, legs at a 45-degree angle

Star Stretch:

Push-Ups:
Start standing up, and round down slowly to walk out to a plank position
Stack your shoulders over your wrists, keeping your body in a flat line
Bend your elbows pack and press up
Option to drop to your knees to make this movement easier

Rotate & Twist:

T & Heel Lifts

Boxing

What’s up PLT4M! Welcome back to another awesome boxing workout. In the first three lessons we covered footwork, offense, and defense. Now, we can start to put our skills together with different combinations to make for one fantastic workout!

When the combinations are simple, just follow along with Sean. As they get more complicated, don’t be afraid to check out the right side of your screen for the ‘combo menu.’ The menu is a perfect place to always come back if you want to move a little faster or slower than Sean, or if you just get lost!

Let’s get after it!

Key Takeaways on Using Projectors With PLT4M 

 

At PLT4M, we believe in the power of technology in physical education. 

 

But the type of technology all depends on your class goals and technology access. Some schools take full advantage of the PLT4M app with students. But others would rather use projectors or monitors to display workouts for the full class. Either way works! It is all up to you and what unit you want to cover.
