Good morning, I encountered pilates in my early student days in London UK. By then it had become a household name and being in the ballet/dance world you were either getting certified, doing it as your practice or using it to rehabilitate an injury. Pilates has always been a means for me to get into tip top shape and as an athlete and performer with a long rehearsal day and grueling tour schedule, it helped me find a basic scaffolding from head to toe that I have never abandoned. Last month I mentioned what ‘Wellness’ means to me. This month I wanted to offer a synonym to wellness, that is wholeness. The Pilates Program at Dancers' Workshop has morphed over the years, with instructors bringing their various schools of thought and process to it. Pilates at DW has always provided a stable platform for this community to not just ‘work out’ but also to regain that sense of wholeness. Our Pilates Instructors are a unique teaching staff of passionate movers. This is what guides the Pilates Program at DW and sparked my curiosity to ask the questions and provide you the answers to what DW’ Pilates means from us.
