What is the Pilates Spiced October Challenge?
Pilates Spiced October is a 4-week RESULTS-DRIVEN exercise program, designed to help you implement a Pilates routine into your lifestyle in a fun & sustainable way.
We'll use a variety of exercises and props to challenge your body & mind, develop your deep CORE muscles, and add tone and flexibility to your hips, legs, back and shoulders.
Pilates will be at the root of each workout, and we will train in a way that builds strength & stability from the inside out. Having a strong core and flexible spine will positively impact so many other areas of your life...
From activities like walking, running, and biking, to common tasks such as carrying groceries or bending down to tie your shoes; everything will feel COMPLETELY different when the muscles of your core are actively supporting you!
So... if you're ready to feel your muscles in a brand new way, and are ready to add an empowering, positive routine into your lifestyle...
Live Zoom classes run every Tuesday & Thursday at 8am PST//11am EST, and every Friday at 7:45am PST // 10:45am EST
Each pilates-powered workout is designed to boost your energy, strengthen your muscles, and improve your joint flexibility.
The classes will be challenging, but in a way that feels good, where you're not exhausted at the end of each workout. All of the exercises are low-impact, and modifications will always be offered, so you'll finish each session feeling invigorated in your body and mind, ready to take on the rest of your day.
Plus, with each session costing around the same price as the average pumpkin spice latte these days... You can rest easy knowing you don't have to break the bank to stay consistent with your fitness routine. So that should feel pretty fantastic, too!
Join our uplifting challenge today and gain access to 3 live online classes per week, the recordings of each class (in case you can't make it live), ongoing accountability from our amazing community, and unlimited support from Kerry... All for only $97, or just 8.08/class!

FAQs
Where is the program located?
Everything you need to successfully complete the program will be provided to you digitally. You can complete the program from anywhere with decent WiFi! This program is designed to fit into your life without adding any extra stress.
If I'm out of shape, can I still participate?
Absolutely! This challenge is designed with all levels of fitness in mind, and will help you get moving again in a way that feels great. I will always provide different options and modifications for more challenging exercises, and if you let me know about any limitations you may have ahead of time, I can provide further options/variations if need be. The goal is to move your body to the best of YOUR ability. We'll take it one day at a time and slowly create healthy movement patterns that will keep you feeling good long-term.
When does the program begin?
The program will officially begin on Tuesday, October 7th and will run until Friday, October 31st. You can join anytime before that to secure your spot. Before we begin, I encourage you to take some time to set personal goals for yourself, and of course, add the workout schedule to your calendar!
How often will I exercise each week?
The goal is to move your body for 45 minutes, 3 times a week. If you are just getting back into exercising, this should feel awesome! However, if you've been exercising consistently for a while, you may want to explore our membership workout library and add in 1-3 extra workouts/week.
Live classes will be held online via Zoom on Tuesdays & Thursdays at 8:00am PST / 11:00am EST and Fridays at 7:45am PST / 10:45am EST. If you cannot attend live, you can complete the workout replays that will be sent out after each class.
Do I need special equipment for the program?
Small props will be incorporated into each class to enhance the workouts and assist in challenging your stability, strength, and coordination. Props are always optional, but if you want to experience all the benefits of the challenge, I suggest grabbing the items listed below before the challenge begins!
I would also suggest having either a wall or a chair close to your practice space that you can use if necessary, as some exercises will focus on balance, and you may require extra support.
Props we will use: Light weights/dumbbells (2-3 lbs), the loop resistance band (medium-heavy, or x-heavy if you use them often), the long resistance band, a yoga block, and the Pilates squish ball (around 9 inches). You can often find these at Canadian Tire, Winners, or on Amazon.
What if I still have questions?
Send me (Kerry) an email anytime at: thekerryhemingway @gmail.com, and I will answer any outstanding questions you have to the best of my ability. If anything is holding you back from getting started, I am sure we can find a solution together!
