Do you know how to mount and dismount on backstroke? Break down? I always take the time to explain this to my students and clients. Moments like these demonstrate HOW you teach. Not what you teach. If you want a real Pilates education, make sure you sign up for upcoming teacher trainings. There is still time to start. Check out the schedule.

I’ve been lucky to have loyal clients who’ve stayed with me for over 25 years — and in that time, I’ve evolved as a teacher, and I’m still evolving. I do that on purpose, and it’s something I try to instill in my team: teach traditional Pilates, but leave room for contemporary exercises that bring freedom and variety into every class. My staff is an excellent, passionate group — many with professional movement backgrounds, all trained directly under me. Here, you see me (Miku) leading an instructor session with Rose, Gula, and Hunter — you can take a class from any of us, in-studio or virtually, with daily group classes offered every day. Sign up through Momence.

LET’S MAP PILATES.

The more clearly we can define the kind of work we’re doing, the better it is for everyone.

And today, those lines aren’t always so clean.

Many teachers work in more than one lane. Classical teachers are stepping onto contemporary equipment, teaching larger groups, incorporating different approaches—and still maintaining their first love and foundation in classical Pilates.

I’ve come to accept that the Pilates landscape is much broader than it once was.

For me, if Contrology is at the core of what you’re doing—and you’re working on a Reformer—you’re presenting a method influenced by Joseph Pilates.

You’re teaching some style of Pilates.

The more interesting question is:

What style are you teaching?

Classical? Contemporary? Clinical? Fitness-forward? Athletic? A hybrid?

Rather than arguing about what is and isn’t Pilates, maybe it’s time we get better at defining our lanes.

So let’s map Pilates. Where do you fit?

Yes, it was HOT. 🔥

Hot in every way—sweaty, exciting, invigorating, thought-provoking.

But what struck me most this time was how quiet the room was.

Not because it was empty—every Reformer was full—but because these teachers came to go deep. They were listening, watching, questioning and soaking it all up.

Just like the sunshine and the ocean, they were saturating themselves in education. And it was a lovely thing to be a part of.

A huge thank you to Pilates Journal for trusting me to headline the education. I made so many new friends, spent time with some old ones, and left Miami feeling energized by where our industry is headed.

And I’ll be back in Miami November 7–8.

Big things coming this fall — Balanced Body Pilates certification, continued coursework, advanced training, athlete-focused work, business talks. The courses are stacking up (in-studio + virtual). I always use the second half of the year to invest in myself and set up for a strong 2027. This weekend: I’m presenting workshops in Miami for the Pilates Journal Expo. Looking forward to meeting you all and supporting fellow instructors who’ve been putting in the work for many years.

Mat work isn’t a “prerequisite to check off” — deepen your cueing, and learn to see the body without the springs and straps doing the work for you. So, name a few of your favorite mat exercises on the reformer. If you’d like to learn more, join me and MIKU for Balanced Body Mat 1 training - Sept 18-20. You can join in studio or virtually from anywhere.

I’ll be in Miami this weekend for PILATES JOURNAL EXPO - Miami. Excited to meet you all and hope you will come up and introduce yourself.

I was about to tell you what I’m doing here.

The exercise.
The technique.
The why.

And then I stopped.

Because sometimes movement doesn’t need to be explained.

Sometimes you put on a song that makes you feel powerful, you move your body, and you remember what it feels like to be completely inside yourself.

Strong. Present. Capable. Alive.

This song does that for me.

So no lesson today.

Just movement.

Turn the music up.
Step into your power.
And move.

What song makes YOU feel powerful?

Join me TODAY for Pro class livestream with Zoom recording. I will teach you this exercise which is inspired by

Reformers are wonderful—but they aren’t what make you a Pilates teacher.

I’m here filming a new Mat workout for Pilates Anytime, using one simple prop: a ball.

One of the reasons I believe so strongly in Mat training is that it gives a teacher freedom.

You can teach anywhere.
You can work with clients who don’t have access to expensive equipment.
You can create private sessions, group classes, livestreams and workshops with almost no overhead.

And perhaps most importantly, Mat work asks you to understand the body without relying on the equipment to assist or organize the movement.

If you want to become a well-rounded Pilates teacher, don’t treat Mat as the module you simply have to “get through” on your way to the Reformer.

Master the Mat. It travels with you.

Upcoming Balanced Body Teacher Training at Bodyline:

Mat 1 — September 18–20
Reformer 1 — October 2–4
Mat 2 — October 16–18
Reformer 2 — November 13–15

Come build the foundation that allows you to anyone,anywhere.
