Challenges Come in All Sizes

The It's-A-New-Year Pilates Challenge has begun! We're on day seven out of 60. I'm so proud of everyone who has taken on a committed, regular practice. Recognizing we are responsible for our own health is the first step; the discipline to make it happen is the next. We've all heard the saying "use it or lose it." Which, of course, is true. But the work of actually making it to the studio and practicing consistently takes effort, and we here at the studio know that. Those daily challenges of getting to class can feel huge sometimes! But to help you get here, we promise that we'll make it worthwhile and fun. Even if you don't feel you have a lot of strength one day, consider coming to a class. Maybe try a Basics class, even if you're not a basics practitioner. You might be surprised at how the gentle, slow exercise and stretching will give you the energy you were lacking. Try it and see! Or maybe you have never done Pilates and feel somewhat nervous about trying your first class. It can be intimidating when you don't know what to expect or when you're not sure what to wear. It's easy to assume that everyone else knows exactly what they are doing, that you're the only one confused. But here's the thing: we all think that. Everyone assumes that everybody else is much stronger, much more flexible, and much more confident. And here's another truth.... we all deal with limitations. Should you have an injury or other limitation that's keeping you from joining a class, I highly recommend the Therapeutic Pilates class that begins on February 25. Or maybe a private session to discuss what path would be best for you. Either way, I am here to help you with the professional knowledge of years of teaching and (probably) thousands of classes and sessions. Guiding people though their own health is one of my greatest joys. Thank you for letting me live the work that means so much to me! With love, Mara
