This 10-minute low-impact strength class with coach Niki Pislis blends elements from Pilates, dance and yoga into a high-energy workout. It includes a combination of lifting, pulsing and isometric holds that is sure to leave you feeling stronger and more energized. All you need is a mat, though you can have a sturdy chair nearby for stability.

Remember to maintain regular breathing throughout and take breaks as needed. If you feel any resistance or pain, stretch carefully without overextending yourself.

Please consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
