Pilates is an excellent method for stretching and promoting the health of your fascia. Unlike traditional static stretching that often targets a single muscle, Pilates works the body as an integrated system, which aligns perfectly with how the fascia network operates.

The third exercise in Joe's Reformer Flow is the Overhead!
While the overhead exercise can be quite challenging and is considered an advanced movement, there are preparatory exercises and modifications that can help practitioners build the necessary strength and control to eventually perform it. It's purpose can be broken down into several key areas:
-Spinal Mobility and Warm-up
-Core and Abdominal Strength
-Upper Body and Shoulder Stability
-Coordination and Control
-Mind-Body Connection
-Inversion and Nervous System Stimulation

Among the Pilates community, it is very well-known that Joe was a great teacher but a horrible business man.

When Romana inherited the studio after Joe's passing, she was left with a mountain of debt, unorganized papers, and a "satellite" studio. Clara did as much as she could to help, but there was only so much that could be done with the mess that Joe left.

Romana's main worry was to maintain the work Joe had done and to keep his legacy alive. She was passionate about the movement, and didn't want it to die.

This passion for the movement and teaching helped keep her clients away from the studio struggles. No one would've noticed through Romana's joy. Not to mention...

She passed around glasses of champagne to sip on during Friday afternoon classes to celebrate life! What a fun way to keep the community spirit high!

These are great metrics to use when setting your fitness goals! Pilates can increase your strength and endurance and you can also make it aerobic with the addition of a jump-board.
