Knowing Pilates is meant to be good for your pelvic floor, I naturally assumed carriage was just some cutesy Pilates term for your fanny.
You know, your undercarriage.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
It's gorgeous.
So good.
So, for the first 20 minutes of the class, I was basically just touching myself.
I did feel slightly self-conscious when the instructor said things like, grab your carriage and pull yourself along.
But I assumed everyone else was simply far more experienced with this technique than I was.
It's called the carriage.
She goes on.
It was only when she announced, now put your tippy toes on your carriage, that I finally thought...
Hang on.
This feels excessive.
So I sat up to look around and discovered everyone else had their tippy toes perched on the moving bench with wheels that they were lying on, also known as the carriage.
Wonderful.
Absolutely genius.
Absolutely gorgeous.
I mean, I've never done Pilates, so I didn't even know that the carriage existed.
It's hard.
