🐴: I don't know any pilates. I'm not sure Open Practice is right for me.
.
🤗: Ya, it is!
.
Even if you know very little pilates (aka no pilates at all) Open Practice is a great way to get started!
.
Over your course of practice you will learn:
.
👍 The basic mat and reformer series and
.
👍 Additional exercises on other classical apparatus to help you move better and feel great.
.
🤓 Rome wasn't built in a day... your practice isn't any different.
.
You'll advance through the method as you gain proficiency in the basic system.
.
My next 6-Week term starts in June with Open Practice sessions on Thursdays at 7pm and Fridays at 9:30am.
.
👉 Want to come give classical pilates a try? Join me for your first 1-to-1 lesson for £15 off my regular price this summer.

I read a great post by @rodrigonano the other day.
.
"The world transforms with your example and not with your opinion... don't talk about pilates, do pilates."
.
For me, I teach because I love my practice. It has been with me through injury and through sport and knowing how powerful the method is, makes me want to share it with others.
.
I can't imagine teaching something that I didn't practice regularly myself 🤯
.
The two are separate but important. My teaching informs my practice and my practice informs my teaching.
.
Teachers often get discouraged from their own practice because they can't fit in a "full" session.
.
What does that even mean?
.
For me a full session is getting in all the things my body needs that day - sometimetimes it's only 20-30 min or sometimes more than an hour.
.
I think it's important to do what you can, when you can.
.
As long as you do it.💪

The work is work.🤓
.
No one can do it for you because it is yours.
.
Your practice, your rewards.
.
I'm just here to teach you how to do the work. Not do it for you. 🙋‍♀️
.
👉 This is one reason why drop in / drop out fitness styled classes can't deliver on all of the benefits promised by the Pilates Method... Because your teacher is driving a class for you and everyone else in your class.
.
Your practice needs to be driven by you.
.
✔ Open Practice allows you to workout with the same energy and buzz of a fitness styled group class but at the same time work on the exercises most beneficial to you.
.
📌 My next 6-Week Open Practice Term starts Thursdays at 7pm or Fridays at 9:30am in June.
.
Why not join me for a 1-to-1 lesson this month to get you started. I'm offering new students their first lesson at £15 off the regular rate.

How you approach your own practice is what separates a good teacher from a great one 🙌
.
As a teacher, you are the example of what you can achieve with a dedicated practice 😍
.
Connect to and believe in your journey
.
If you find it difficult to carve out a little me-time in your studio or just need another set of eyes to keep you on track, why not join me for an Open Practice session just for teachers?👏👏👏
.
Next one is on Wednesday 1 May from 10-11:30am. Teachers from all comprehensive training backgrounds are welcome to join.

🧚‍♀️: Pilates me!
.
🤗: 🤣🤣🤣 No thanks!
.
One of the things that makes pilates such a great mindful movement modality, is that you're actually mindful of your movement! 🤣
.
On the day you can shut your brain up and move mindlessly through a pilates workout is the day you should find a new teacher.
.
Sometimes the focus us on learning a new exercise for your programme but more often then not the focus is on getting more out of each and every movement in your practice and connecting them all for one heck of a workout 🙌
.
Turning up and shutting off is not an option 🙅‍♀️

Let's have a little chitty-chat about the rabbit hole of continuing education 🤗
.
If you want to waste both your time and money, I have a few ideas 🤣
.
🖐: I was told learning massage would make me a better pilates teacher.
.
🤗: Nope!
.
🖐: I spent two weeks cutting up a dead person so that I would understand pilates better.
.
🤗: Double Nope!
.
🤣🤣🤣 How does any of that make any sense?!
.
You know what can make you a better teacher? Learning more about pilates and keeping up your practice! 💯

Teach what you know 🙌
.
It's hard. Our students all want answers:
.
😸: My shoulder feels a bit weird. What do you think that is from?
.
And we want to give them to them:
.
👉 insert anatomy musings by well meaning pilates teacher with very limited anatomy knowledge...
.
Instead, my answer usually goes something like this...
.
🤗: It could be anything. I don't have x-ray vision and even if I did, it's all a big mess in there anyway. Let's move and see if that helps. 🤣🤣🤣
.
I'm not a trained medical professional but what I can do is teach pilates exercises that can avoid injuries, strengthen weaknesses and balance out the body. .
Sometimes this helps. 😍
.
This is what I know.
.
I won't make things up or spout off anatomy so you think I know what I'm talking about. .
Because I do. I know pilates. 🤗
.
Come experience classical pilates this summer. I'm offering new students their first 1-to-1 lesson for just £60. .

🙋‍♀️ Hello teachers!
.
Remember why you decided to plunk down a chunk of money and train to teach pilates to others? 😍
.
Did you then discover that teaching is hard work and that everyone else gets to practice but you? 🤣
.
Don't be jelly of your students 🤭 Claim back pilates for you 😘😘

Next Professional Open Practice is on Wednesday 1 May from 10-11:30am. Find out more and sign up at www.be-pilates.co.uk/educationcalendar/201905professionalpractice

👨‍💼: But pilates is really for women though, right?
.
🤗: Right.... just looking at this guy 👉 @rodrigonano, you can tell that pilates is really just gentle exercise aimed at pregnant ladies 🤣🤣
.
Nope!
.
While the pilates system is a great way to workout for lots of different bodies, we don't just mean pregnant ladies and injured students. It's great for strong, healthy students as well 👏👏👏
.
By the way, when asked on a recent course what exercise does he do, Rodrigo said only pilates 😍
.
Have a look at his Instagram page @rodrigonano to see him hard at work! 💯🤴 And stay tuned... men's only practice starts in June! 🤗🤗🤗

😁: Pilates is great, but I want to work out my upper body.
.
🤗: Um 🤣🤣🤣
.
It's funny to me the ideas of what pilates is and isn't that I hear from want-to-be new students.
.
Let's save all of our time here:
.
✔ Pilates is a great workout for your whole body (arms included!)
.
✔ Yes, men can and should practice too. After all, it was an exercise system, designed by a man, for men.
.
✔ Yes, you are a beginner even if you have done yoga before. They aren't the same thing. Or even that similar for that matter.
.
✔ You will sweat. It is a workout and even the basic system can be a challenge for experienced practitioners.
.
✔ And no, I'm not a physio/osteo/chiro/doctor. I teach a system of exercise. If you have a medical issue that needs medical attention, do that first before coming to me.
.
We have just a few spots left in our beginner courses that start this week, so if you have been thinking you might like what we do and want to give it a try, now is the time to join.
