Update on training after our second intermediate weekend

An update on training:

1) Pilates is fun!

2) 600 hours is a lot.  We practice teaching on each other, so if one of us is practicing, the other is working out, thus, we usually get in more than an hour or two of exercise each day.

3) Pilates is fun!

4) We take mat classes when they're being taught at the studio even if we have our semi-private lesson later that day.  On days like today, we've done an intermediate mat, practiced on each other, AND had our semi-private!!  Okay, maybe on days like today we practice the easy exercises on each other .... will someone please pass the turmeric?

5) Pilates is fun!

6) As we learn to teach the more difficult exercises, putting in the hours we put in with the beginner exercises becomes much more challenging.  

7) Pilates is fun!

But we're doing all this because we're passionate about pilates and what it does for a person.  It makes you stronger, leaner, more fit.  It makes your musculature work in an integrated way.  And it's efficient so, unless you're in training to become an instructor, you don't have to spend more than an hour about three days a week working out.  

We had some great client feedback this week.  She was wondering if after so few sessions it's normal to already feel a difference.  Well, here's what Joseph Pilates said, "After 10 sessions you will feel a difference.  After 20 sessions you will see a difference.  After 30 sessions you will have a new body!"

Give us a call, we think you'll like it, too!
