I can remember being a child feeling such joy in movement whether it was being mermaid, a horse or even just a good ol ball- movement gave me life.  
‍
Years ago when I started Pilates, the life giving power of movement came back to me.  My body and mind came together to become so much more strong and aware.  
‍
This said-I’ve been an athlete all my life, I’ve loved the sports and the other exercises I’ve done but Pilates brought me something undeniable and a passion for it ensued.  
‍
I enrolled in the Pilates Technique certification course, completed my 500+ hours to become a Pilates Instructor.  It gives me such joy teaching something that has brought me freedom of movement, newfound flexibility and previously undiscovered muscles (just to name a few).  
‍
So I’d like to encourage you the next time you reach for that thing or go to that class I hope you decide to embark on your journey of trying Pilates Instead.
