All the Time (to do) Pilates!
It’s time to do Pilates online! Now, more than ever, it’s easier to do Pilates in the comfort of your own home at your own time. There is more flexibility in your schedule for a Pilates session.
Setting Your Pilates Goals
What goals do you have for Pilates? It’s something I ask in the beginning and it helps me guide your session. Maybe it’s to not feel pain or stiffness. Or cross training for a race (COVID excluded). How about playing with your kids? Getting down to the floor easily and back up? Walking for long periodsContinueContinue reading “Setting Your Pilates Goals”
Create a Home Pilates Space
We’ve been staying home for awhile now. I’ve lost track since March. The weather is warming up, kids are out for school, but you’re still exercising. When exercising inside and at home, where is your workout space? It could be having your mat in the living room in front of the TV. Or in theContinueContinue reading “Create a Home Pilates Space”

Not too rigorous and certainly not a jog but one that keeps our heart rate up. WeContinueContinue reading “Be the Energizer Bunny”
Pilates Power Hour
Let’s be honest: have you purchased an exercise video? One of any type: Pilates, kickboxing, “buns of steel”, P90x, the list goes on! I had one before I started doing Pilates, it was a Jillian Michaels’ dvd. It was when Biggest Loser was popular and while some find Jillian’s in your face style harsh, IContinueContinue reading “Pilates Power Hour”
Reform the Mind
When things feel out of control the mind gravitates to the negative. A series of ‘What If’s’ consume the brain and the mind needs to fight to find the positives. Focusing on the positive is truly an exercise and is important in your Pilates practice. Joseph Pilates created a series of exercises called Contrology (knownContinueContinue reading “Reform the Mind”
Cristina’s Pilates Journey
We start Pilates at different times, stages, and reasons. This make us unique but one thing is the same: Pilates. I asked Cristina to share her Pilates story: why she started, what it means to her, and how it has helped. Read to see if you relate! It is never too late to start! WhyContinueContinue reading “Cristina’s Pilates Journey”
