PURE JOURNAL — VOLUME TWO

Out tomorrow.

In our second volume, we explore responsibility — what it means to take ownership of your practice, and how something learned through Pilates can begin to reach far beyond the studio.

We also share the story of one of our graduates, whose journey through the work has led her to open her own Contrology studio in the UK.

Alongside this, more from the archive, the studio and the people continuing to study and carry this work forward.

Volume Two. Tomorrow. Make sure you subscribe now!

There is something beautiful about discovering true back extension — not just bending backwards, but feeling the whole back line of the body come alive to support you.

As that strength develops, extension begins to feel different. More connected. More supported. More free.

You begin to trust the strength behind you — and suddenly there is space to lengthen, lift and move with ease.

A beautiful feeling in the body.

There is something important in this.

The goal was never to perform Pilates perfectly. The goal was to become involved in the work.

Interest makes you curious. Commitment makes you return. And through that process—repetition, attention, effort—the work begins to teach you.

Perhaps this is also a reminder for us as teachers. Not every movement needs to be interrupted and corrected. Sometimes we need to give people enough space to move, to try, to struggle a little and to discover something for themselves.

Joe expected effort. He expected you to pay attention. He expected you to show up and do the work.

Perfection was never the requirement. Participation was.

Revisiting Return to Life Through Contrology always reminds me how far ahead of his time Joseph Pilates was. He wasn’t only teaching exercise. He understood that health is built through simple, consistent daily habits; like brushing your skin.

“The use of a good stiff brush as described stimulates circulation, thoroughly cleans out the pores of the skin and removes dead skin too.”

“Your skin will soon respond most gratifyingly to this perhaps seemingly ‘Spartan-like’ treatment and acquire in the process a new, fresh, glowing appearance, and develop a texture smooth and soft to the touch. So brush away merrily, and heartily too! “ -Joe Pilates-

Find your center. Find your power.

Strength is not just about stronger arms or stronger legs. When you find your center, everything starts to work together.

The body becomes connected. Movement becomes more powerful. What once felt impossible starts to feel possible.

True strength comes from the middle.

Most people think Pilates is the Reformer and the Mat. But Joseph Pilates created a complete studio system.

Each apparatus was designed with a specific purpose in mind, working together as part of a larger method of corrective exercise. Some pieces help restore strength and mobility in the feet. Others challenge balance, improve lung capacity, or strengthen the neck and upper back.

The brilliance of the system lies not in any one piece of equipment, but in how they work together to address the body as a whole.

When we limit Pilates to just the Reformer or the Mat, we miss much of what makes the method so effective.

If you done only “reformer pilates” maybe you haven’t tried Contrology (Joe Pilates’s “pilates”) ? 🧐
