Pilates Pro Nofar Hagag Shares How Her Workouts Can Help You Nail Red Carpet or Instagram Poses

From the crimson carpet to Instagram, Pilates professional Nofar Hagag helps stars like Brooke Shields, Emily Ratajkowski, and Karlie Kloss feel and look their best, in images and in real life.

The fitness professional, recognized for her full-body sweat classes that includes 25 minutes on the Reformer and 25 minutes on the Cadillac, is telling ET how her method may also help you prep for just about any big event.

“Working on the Reformer and Cadillac helps tone and define the body in a way that keeps it long, lean, and elegant without building bulky muscle,” she explains.

“The Nofar Method is a great workout before hitting the red carpet because it’s not about pushing or exhausting the body, it’s about setting it up, so you feel like your best self. We target the arms, shoulders, back, and core to create support and definition, while also lengthening the muscles so everything feels lifted.”

Beyond leaving class with more confidence, Hagag says her strikes can also change the way you stand, stroll, and carry your self.

“When you feel truly connected to your body, you shine in the most authentic way.”

And sure, this will enable you to strike the most flattering poses.

“When posture is organized, the neck looks longer and the waist looks more defined. Posing stops feeling forced and it becomes natural. … It shows in every angle, step, and movement,” she notes.

After snapping pics, it may be time to settle in for the lengthy haul, whether or not attending an award present, a dinner, or an evening out, and Hagag’s approach is useful right here too.

“We teach the body how to support itself with ease, even when you’re sitting for hours. … You’ll feel less compression in the lower back, more openness in the chest, and be able to sit comfortably while looking elegant and present.”

The founder also focuses on respiratory better, which may also help you calm down in entrance of a crowd.

“Breath is everything. It’s how we settle the nervous system by softening tension, slowing the mind, and creating a feeling of inner support. During an event, breath keeps you grounded, even in high-energy moments,” she shares.

Other wellness musts: “Be mindful of what you eat leading up to an event. … Focus on lighter, nourishing meals and consider limiting dairy, gluten, and red meat to feel less bloated and more comfortable in fitted dresses. … Drink at least two liters of water a day to improve digestion and give your skin a natural glow and try to reduce alcohol a few days before so you feel radiant.”

And most importantly? Prioritize getting a very good night time’s sleep.

“Gentle movement or a 20-minute walk before bed is a simple but powerful way to keep the body fluid and aligned. … When you’re well-rested, your body recovers and you feel calm,” Hagag dishes.
