Why I became a Pilates instructor.

I didn’t become an instructor because it was trendy, I became one because Pilates healed my body in a way ballet never did.

Now I get to share it, using the same eye I learned from in ballet, to help others stay healthy, functional, and strong.

Enjoy this dramatic caddy improv to this amazing Sinatra song.

One of my favorite songs to improv dance too. Why not use the Pilates equipments as your dance partner?🩰🫧

Needed this after a long day of teaching for my brain to be creative and express myself through movement. This helps me so much with burn out honestly. Plus a little help from the machine makes improv easier on the body than in the studio.

For the last few months working out kind of started to feel like a chore I had to do because I taught it.

Dealing with sickness, anxiety, and a bit of burn out is the recipe for not a lot of motivation to move my body. I’ll get super frustrated if I feel weak/ fatigued. I had to force myself to start taking classes again and bit my bit I feel more regulated. Movement is medicine. The Lord helps me in my craft. The Lord sees me in my downs. Movement can be worship too. In the struggle there’s still light and hope.

Reminder mental health matters. Doing what you need matters. Taking days off matters. Taking care of your physical health matters. Reminder your fitness instructor struggles in working out too.

I love this song also.

~ Inside Carola Trier’s studio ~

Carola was a dancer, acrobat, and even roller skating contortionist. After working with Joseph and Clara Pilates, she was able to open the first studio besides Joe’s in late 1950s, with Joe’s blessing. Many Pilates ‘greats’ worked in this studio such as Kathy Grant, Lolita San Miguel, and many others. I just love the use of plants and even a monkey in her studio!

“I want to feel the burn.” “Omg I’m so scared I’ve seen Pilates on Instagram I don’t want to die!!” “I want to feel the Pilates shakes!!”

Yes we work hard. Yes we sweat. Yes we can experience trembling. Yes we use props!

But… that isn’t what Pilates is about.
Sometimes it’s small movements. It’s focus. It’s discipline. It’s curiosity. Getting deeper into your practice. Sometimes tuning more into the simpler things!

If you want shakes and sweats 100% of the time maybe pilates isn’t what you are looking for. It’s probably lagree. And there’s nothing wrong with wanting that.

Happy two years of lifetime to me!
Today marks my second year at lifetime teaching Pilates. This year has been full of teaching improvements, growth, and taking inspiration from other instructors who have been in the field longer. It hasn’t been a hair bit easy to work at such a fast paced corporate gym, but sticking through it and continuing to just show up has gotten me through. Thankful to all my lovely clients who continue to show up with consistency and appreciation. From knee surgeries, to pregnancies, to retirements I really am just cheering everyone on in their fitness journey. I feel like I really am establishing myself as an instructor after year two. Thanking God through everything and continuing to trust Him with my future.

Here’s my absolutely talented co worker DJ’s promotional Pilates video for lifetime that I got to be a model for back in June. I really was kind of nervous for this video I couldn’t really connect with my body the way I would want too 🤣I think that’s just the dancer in me. 💗💙

Little movement before class yesterday

All on one blue 🩵💙

Felt like I needed to move my body this way today.

I also love this song and movie, the snowman (1982) full movie on YouTube!
