Pilates Homeroom

hello WOW! ICYMI I was interviewed by Amy Wilkinson at Women’s Health Magazine alongside Sonja R Price Herbert ( ) & Lindsey Leif ( ) — very exciting for a big publication to report on Pilates from the specific lens of HOW DO WE GET MORE PEOPLE DOING PILATES? and we all have ideas! I thought it was a scam when Amy first contacted me, and I’m delighted to say it was real and the article covered a lot of ground. Link in bio if you missed it.

To speak a little extra about the logistics of sliding scale and scholarships — these are things that I chose to study and implement on my own, and I’d love to help others find their way to creative but sustainable pricing options whether operating on a scale similar to me or much larger. Because if I can do it and create an impact however small from within this business, SO. CAN. YOU. That impact has a ripple effect — let’s make waves!

What if:

+ you’re a Pilates teacher in a position to make operational decisions (manager, owner, etc) and so you do!?

+ you’re a Pilates student (or want to become one!) who’s down with sliding scale and you send this to your friendly neighborhood or franchise Pilates studio and say HEY HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT DOING SOMETHING LIKE THIS?

Happy to help you craft these systems and messages.

What’s so cool about having so many great Pilates teachers and business owners out there, is everyone has something unique to offer, and everyone can connect differently with a wide variety of students. Your pricing model doesn’t have to look just like mine, but you can adjust it a little bit at a time or start offering one scholarship to make a difference in the lives of the people around you. Just begin!

Thankful for each of you; go make moves.

It's an honor to be featured alongside such incredible leaders in this field. Check out this Women's Health Magazine article about dismantling exclusivity in Pilates, featuring the Sliding Scale & Scholarship model that's offered right here at Pilates Homeroom.

Pilates Has an Exclusivity Problem. These 3 Women Are Pushing to Change That. No gatekeeping here.

on my mind: Catherine reversing this walkover situation for the first time today AND the difference between selling Pilates for CONSUMPTION versus teaching Pilates for COMPREHENSION and this is the hill I’m standing on right now XO

TEACHING is not a demonstration of what you know; TEACHING is helping your students understand what they know but haven’t yet discovered. Teaching is about listening, asking questions, expanding possibilities, solving puzzles, sometimes building puzzles! checking comprehension, supporting embodied learning and allowing for creative interpretation while still coaching clear technical skills.

Sometimes a session feels like goal setting and strategic planning, other times it feels like a celebration and a big playground, with room for overlap.

I love it here!
