Pilates with Alex

2016: When my hair was super short. The pandemic hadn't occurred. When my (2) horses & friends hadn't been taken from this earth. Looking back is bittersweet at best.

💪 Pilates & movement has remained a constant in my world since 1999. I am lucky even through the deep loss.

🗣️ As Mary Bowen just wrote to me: "One needs to have lived a long life to arrive at the WHOLE SELF! I am lucky."

📸 & I in Phoenix at the Annual PMA Conference 10 years ago.
I miss her 🥹

🗣️ & Immersion™ Pilates Aquatics™ solo weekend practice.

😎 It's a real drag this work didn't go further in the (Pilates) world.

💦 Anytime I have access to a pool, especially privately(!), Jen's boards are always with me.

👩‍🎓 After all, I'm (still) one of the pioneer Teachers of this program😎

🏊‍♂️ The pool work, or as Jen put it, "Joe's work translated on the side & in the water," always bridges the connection to my personal studio practice. I like to practice what I teach & change up my movement work regularly. 💪

✌️ While her IPA Program didn't take off as it was intended, I feel exceedingly lucky I was able to spend quality time with THE & other dear Pilates Teachers for so many years, both in the water & the studio.

💎 She was a gem & is greatly missed.
