Pilates Is An Inside Job
Oct 29, 2018Pilates happens on the inside.
Videos of advanced Pilates exercises don’t show that work, the detailed work of muscles close to the joint. The magic of Pilates happens through verbal cueing (the teacher saying the right thing at just the right time) or through tactile cueing (supporting or guiding the movement through touch.) It’s hard not to be impressed by the shiny things (advanced repertoire) but it’s not necessarily going to give you the body you want.
