Read a snippet of what Lisa Moore had to say about going through Lori’s training last year.

“When I first walked into your class, I thought I was just signing up for Pilates. I had no idea I was stepping into something so much deeper. You didn’t just teach movements or routines—you taught presence, patience, strength, and respect for my own body in a way I had never experienced before. You saw potential in me on days when I couldn’t see it myself, and somehow, with your steady encouragement and belief, you helped me grow into it.“

Lori is not just teaching you Pilates, she’s teaching you how to be a teacher people want to come back to for decades.

Today marks another trip around the sun.
I’ve always been a big birthday person — I love celebrating mine and everyone else’s too.
But today, all I really want to do is go to the place that always makes me feel my best

There’s no age I want to go back to.
Honestly, none.

Every year gives me the chance to reflect on everything I’ve experienced — the hard things, the lessons, the blessings, and all the moments in between. I get to carry all of it with me, take it in, and think about how I want to grow moving forward.

I never take birthdays for granted.

Getting older is a gift not everyone gets to have.

And truly, my 50s have been my best decade yet.

Things that once rattled me or kept me stressed don’t hold the same power anymore. I’ve developed a deep trust in the ebb and flow of life. I know now that it’s far better to move with the current than to fight against it.

I’ve become both the fire and the calm — building strength without losing softness, and certainty without losing heart.

Every season of life brings something valuable, and every new year is another opportunity to become wiser, softer, stronger, more grounded, and more myself.

This is the sweet little soul who made me a mama 12 years ago and I couldn’t be more grateful 💕

This kid literally has the biggest heart ❤️

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mamas, mother figures, and nurturing souls who give so much of themselves every single day. Your love, strength, patience, and care shape lives in ways that are often unseen but today we see you and we honor you.
Today, and every day, we celebrate you. 💛

In honor of Joe’s memory here are 3 of my favorite Joe quotes.

On Longevity: “A man is as young as his spinal column.”

On the Mind-Body Link: “Pilates is complete coordination of body, mind and spirit.”

On Happiness: “Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness.”

Happy Pilates Day 😊
