5. Pilates Doesn't Have To Be Complicated
Explicit content warning
08/09/22 • 27 min
I talk to so many potential clients who love simple and effective workouts, and steer clear of Pilates. Most recently, someone told me that she went to a studio and left feeling like Pilates had to involve equipment and was way too technical, so she's rather not do Pilates.
Yet, she loves my work and approach, which are distinctly Pilates.
Joe Pilates developed his work to be easy to do and teach! Yes, he was an inventor and came up with all kinds of awesome gizmos, but none of them are required, and most can be mimicked inexpensively (see episode 3).

4. The State of Pilates with Joan Breibart
Pilates is at a crossroads (as is all fitness right now), and we need to decide whether to look ahead and move forward, or focus on the past.
I've been working with Joan Breibart for over 30 years, since I became a founding member of the Institute for the Pilates Method in 1991. Joan is a force, and was the first person Sean Gallagher sued in the infamous trademark lawsuit.
She has a lot to say about where Pilates has been and where it's going, and whether or not you agree, I think you'll find our conversation interesting.
More About Joan:
Grandmother, Inventor, Author & Visionary with 10 US Patents; Responsible for making Pilates a household name; Wellness industry disruptor; Creator of 80Bites. Joan Breibart, Founder of the PhysicalMind Institute, started the Pilates boom in 1991 when she organized The Institute for the Pilates Method which introduced the first Pilates certification program; the first Pilates Matwork video, “Working out the Pilates Way”; and the first Pilates encyclopedias on the Exercise for the MAT and Reformer....
