Yeah, it's hard.  Very hard, especially after two children and not working those abs for a couple of years.  My friend Jenn, Dorene and I went to the gym to actually take the cycle class, but they were filled up.  So, we went to Pilates instead.  Jenn had gone one time and Dorene and I were novices.  Can I just say that we all laughed the entire time at the contortions our bodies were in!  I mean, this instructor really made it look so easy...but not so much :)!  It was hilarious.  I am just glad there were no cameras in there filming us or mirrors in front to look at ourselves!  Let's just say that I now know of muscles I never knew existed.  I came home last night after class and plopped on the couch and I don't think got up again except for to eat some dinner and then to bed.  I was that exhausted!  Hopefully Jenn and Dorene felt the same way or else I am a wimp :).  Did make it to cycle today, but had to leave 40 minutes into the workout because Bubbas pooped.  Oh well :), the work of a mommy is never done...even at the gym!  Actually, think they phrase it as the childcare worker interrupts your workout as, "I think so and so needs a diaper change".  I feel like saying, "If you 'think' so, then can you come back when you 'know' so." :).  I am such a brat!  Anyway, the moral of the story is...Pilates, real good but real tough.  Think if you are in shape and lean before you start this class (unlike, moi) then you could have a six pack tummy in a month! 
Toodles!

This post made me laugh!! I took a dance class the other night and had a similar experience. The class would turn and face one way and I would end up facing the opposite direction. It was a fun time but I was SO lost. I will have to give Pilates a go.:)
