I’m starting to enjoy sneaking out of the house on Sundays to prep my week.

Planning my lessons is so important to me, I still use pencil and paper, . Some mock me!

But lesson planning was part of my training and still is a part of my routine.
I want to be ready to share Pilates with my clients, helping them to understand and move their bodies the best that they can.

I’m learning now (after 8 yrs) that less is sometimes more!
