I was dreading going back to Pilates after a spinal fusion because I felt like grip socks were not going to cut it. I had never found a pair of grip socks that wouldn’t slip a bit while doing bridges on the chair or reformer so I started looking for something that would help alleviate my fears. This seemed like the perfect option. Not only do they not skip, they’ve allowed for a more intuitive grip while bridging that has eliminated any hamstring pain I was experiencing before. It helped me really make a better connection with my feet and positioning across the board. I bought two pairs, so that if have a back up. I haven’t needed to use them because of the minimal wear and tear on the pair I wear regularly. It’s been 295 classes with one pair. That second pair? I’ve now started loaning them to people in my Pilates classes (I wash them of course!) and people have been amazed with the difference in connection of their bodies in class.
