One of the students snapped candid photos throughout last Sunday’s Pilates continuing education workshop. I knew she was taking them, but I had no idea she was capturing so many moments of me teaching, or that I would love the photos as much as I do.

They captured one of my favorite parts of this work: teaching teachers.

There is something wonderfully different about working with other instructors. I get to share what years of teaching, studying, experimenting and observing have taught me, but the learning is never one-directional. Every teacher brings a different body, different eyes, different questions and different experiences into the room. I always come away having learned something too.

These candid moments caught so much of what I love about the process: watching, questioning, feeling, refining, and sometimes putting my hands on someone and saying essentially, “Right THERE.” 😊

And this workshop has created something new for Soul Body Works.

Three newer Pilates instructors are now available for private and duet lessons here at the studio. This opens up opportunities for people who have wanted to work at Soul Body Works but haven't been able to get onto my very full schedule.

If you're interested in working with one of them, send me a message and I'll be happy to share more details.

Sometimes people pass on Pilates because they believe they aren’t ready.

They think they need to be more flexible, stronger, or more experienced before beginning.

But those are not requirements for practicing Pilates.

They are some of the qualities that develop through the practice.

The method meets you where you are and helps you build from there.

One of my Pilates students arrived this morning and described a post she’d seen where someone was doing this exercise with cones.
I’m always interested in mobility and balance training, so after she left I decided to try it for myself, using blocks.
Here is the uncensored first attempt!

"Pilates is an amazing buzz word that is getting people moving and creating community around the world.

However, popularity has its pitfalls. Pilates is a system, not just matwork, not just the reformer, but a system of movements and shapes including flexion, extension, lateral flexion and rotation. It includes a varied variety of apparatus with springs that enhances the body including the chair, tower, Cadillac, ladder barrel, baby chair, ped-o-pul, toe corrector, foot corrector, high chair, reformer and many other apparatus.

An apprenticeship was the original way you learnt your trade and this took place in the studio. Apprentices had the option to work with real life clients as well as the elder (master trainer).

Now with large chain gyms jumping on the trend like fast growing coffee houses, training can be delivered in as little as four hours where as the original classical schools were 600 hours and contemporary schools anything from 350 hours upwards." - Nisha Srivastava

If you're looking for the real deal, ask about your teacher's education and experience. IYKYK 😄

”Big gym” Pilates is a fad, but Pilates done under the guidance of a well educated instructor with a sharp eye will never go out of style. 😉

Working on the rollover without using my arms - unbelievably hard, especially with the legs wide!

Spring break week brings some rare availability to my private lesson schedule on Monday at 9am and 11am.
Message me if you’d like one of those spots!
