From The Blog
"I was watching the video of Pelvic Clock on a busy bus earlier. It made me break down the exercise and think about it in more depth which is hugely beneficial to me! It's so lovely to feel welcomed to ask questions."

"I have such a huge appreciation for the Pilates Encyclopedia. When I was just a student of Pilates, I thought it was a good idea, but being a teacher-in-training now, I feel like it's essential to put this information out there. There are so many times I need an answer to a teaching question and the encyclopedia tells me the information I need very simply and clearly! "

"This is a brilliant website and resource. As a teacher it's great to be reminded to come back to intention, intuition, finding space and flow as opposed to forcing clinical execution of form, which doesn't feel as great. I look forward to exploring this website. Thanks for working hard to make this."

"I use the Encyclopedia regularly, and love the cueing emails. The videos with their very detailed explanations are great for covering everything you need to know about each exercise. I like the variations to expand the ones I use already. The programming and sequencing section is very useful for giving me new ideas or confirming I am on the right track if I have someone who has a specific goal or injury. "

"I think the Pilates Encyclopedia is an excellent resource and well done. I particularly appreciate the push notices and blog entries that come to my inbox as it helped me stay connected to the new resources available. "

"I have enjoyed the Pilates Encyclopedia very much. As always your instruction and descriptions of each movement are spot on! Each video is very descriptive and easy to follow. After each video I always feel more relaxed and balanced. "

"I was hesitant about jumping right into a Pilates class, so I tried the Pilates from Scratch program (inside the Pilates Encyclopedia.) I signed up and loved it. It was one simple exercise every day for 21 days. The videos include very clear demonstrations, and there is also a written explanation that goes with it. You can do it at your pace wherever and whenever you want. If you want to do one lesson per day you can. If you want to skip a day, you can do that as well. It was just what I needed. Some exercises were a little easier than others, but that’s when I knew the ones that were more challenging I needed to work on more often. You can always go back and redo the video as often as you want. I’m loving it."
