Well this video sent chills down my spine. Maybe think twice about equipment maintenance and the qualifications of that person who is teaching that super affordable Pilates equipment class with 10-12 people in attendance. My max is 5, and if someone isn’t ready for group, I’m honest and let them know. It’s about integrity and safety, not just dollars.

So - here’s how to avoid that…and also give someone an awesome holiday gift.

We offer a terrific new client special for AZ locals at Delta Pilates. DM me for info, and come see me there on Sundays. I also still offer virtual lessons to anywhere in the world!

This was the most scary case I have ever had. The client has been permanently blinded in one eye. I searched high and low for anybody who taught Rowing like this. I found out that it is considered an “archival” exercise. Sometimes Romana would teach it to her “super advanced” students. This was being taught in a group setting to a 70 year old real estate broker who had lots of pilates experience. The teacher was decent. I felt badly for her but she had never had a complete education just bits and pieces of classical pilates education. It’s obvious she made a very bad choice. Make sure your education is coming from a good source. See my video on You tube about choosing a program.

Peak Pilates instructor, Julia Trovato of Clearly Pilates in PA, teaches Pilates to one of Major League Baseball's best relief pitchers, Scott Effross. Here's what Scott himself says about Pilates...⁠
⁠
Peak: Has any one of your 5 tools (hitting, throwing, catching, etc.) improved as a result of Pilates?⁠
Scott: I would certainly say that Pilates has helped me with my pitching mechanics. Being able to use my core and hips more efficiently has allowed me to make my pitching motion much more repeatable and has helped me create more drive down the mound.⁠
⁠
Peak: What is the most challenging part of Pilates for you (i.e. flexibility, balance, Ab Series)?⁠
Scott: It’s all challenging, but if I had to pick just one, any of the isolated ab exercises always give me the hardest time!⁠
⁠
Peak: Do you recommend Pilates to your teammates?⁠
Scott: Without a doubt! I am always encouraging my teammates to try Pilates for certain things that may be bothering them, and try to seek out guys who already use reformers regularly to discuss the thought process behind it.⁠
