While the class is only offered in New York right now, Amanda provided SLT-inspired moves anyone can try at home — even without the Megaformer.
"To replicate the instability and movement of the Megaformer at home, you can use a towel," she said. "By placing a towel under your feet, hands, or elbows, many of our favorite SLT moves can be practiced at home."
Here are two of her favorites:
Spoon: Place a towel under your feet and the heel of your hands on the edge of the seat of a chair behind you. Using your lower abdominal muscles, pull your torso up while sliding your feet closer to the chair. Slowly lower your body while sliding your legs away from the chair. Repeat slowly for a minute.
French Twist: With your feet facing the left side of the room, place your hands on the floor shoulder width apart and your right foot in front of your left foot (heel to toe) with a towel under your feet. Using your side waist to pull, slide your feet and legs a few inches closer to your hands. Then slide your feet and legs away from your hands. Repeat slowly for a minute. Focus on using your side waist (aka oblique) to do the work. Avoid bending your knees. Then, try it on the other side!
