Following a recent conversation (it was actually on calisthenics) I was pointed to Michael Smith’s ‘Wall Pilates for Seniors’. Great way to get people moving.

( And if you’re keen on testing it out yourself, you’ll be happy to know that it blends well with the slightly more strenuous forms of training. )

Enjoy.
