The top 10 most popular Pilates classes to do at home
Pilates is the ideal exercise to take up from the comfort of your home, needing no more than a bit of time, space and a mat (even that’s optional!). Combining mindful movement with muscle conditioning, Pilates benefits you in body, mind and soul.
Whether you’re a beginner at Pilates or looking for a more advanced workout, the Lauren Hilton Pilates online studio membership offers over 200 classes to suit your fitness, movement and wellbeing goals. Even if you have only 10 minutes a day, you can make a difference with Pilates.
We looked at the most popular Pilates classes with our members over the last 12 months, and here are the top 10 most-played workouts from Lauren Hilton Pilates At Home membership.

Class number 156 is my holiday favourites with plenty of members enjoying a 20-minute flow of movement that encourages positive and strong energy.
Focus: Flow, Strength, Mobility
I often get asked what Pilates movements people should do every day, and this class has proved popular at number nine. One size doesn’t fit all, but this 25-minute ‘everyday movement prescription’ class will help you improve your strength, mobility, coordination and feelings of well-being.
Focus: Strength, Mobility, Flexibility, Coordination
As we age our bone density decreases, and for perimenopausal women estrogen levels reduce drastically, which also leads to a loss in bone density. We need to load our bones to keep them healthy and strong to prevent falls and fractures. This popular 13-minute standing class uses a set of 1kg hand weights to load the arms, shoulders, back, and legs.
Prop: 1kg handweights
Focus: Bone health, Osteoporosis, Osteopenia, Women’s Health, Strength
Ever had one of those days where your back feels really tight? This short 7-minute Pilates class is for those days, and plenty of members have been squeezing this session into their routines. In standing, we open the spine with some feel-good movements so you’re left feeling taller and less compressed.
Focus: Spine, Release, Flexibility, Mobility
Hormone fluctuations, medication, food intolerances, and good old-fashioned over-indulgence can leave us feeling really bloated. All the exercises in this 15-minute Pilates class are designed to help relieve bloating and improve digestion.
Focus: Bloating, Digestion, Mobility
#5 / 6-minute arms
This super quick Pilates session focuses on building arm and shoulder strength in just 6 minutes. Fit this one into your routine while the kettle boils!
Focus: Strength, Upper Body, Arms
#4 / Energise your day
A 12-minute energising flow designed to start or finish your day. This short class can be done alone or at the end of one of our other classes.
Focus: Restorative whole body energy, breath
#3 / The Classics
It’s no surprise this full 40-minute Classic Pilates class comes in at number three most played. It combines the classic Pilates movements I love to get the whole body moving! You’ll feel taller, and more flexible by the end.
Focus: Flexibility, Mobility
The only Pilates prop class to make it to the top 10, but it’s certainly popular at number 2! This 30-minute Pilates class using the resistance band opens the spine and guides you through some dynamic movements to make you feel more open and free in your body.
Prop: 1.5-2 metre medium resistance band
Focus: Flexibility, Strength, Mobility
#1 / Abdominal Workout
And at number 1, our Pilates at Home members enjoy nothing more than a good, solid 15-minute abdominal workout!
Focus: Core, Abdominals, Strength
