I has been on a long healing journey and over the past two decades have explored many forms of movement and therapies (yoga, flying trapeze, gymnastics and handstanding, various twelve steps programs...)
As a hyper mobile person with musculoskeletal pain and surgeries - hip replacement on both sides, spinal decompression, carpal tunnel, scoliosis - I have a deep understanding and appreciation of the need for stability work.
Pilates, or contrology, mix strength, balance, stretch and stamina: while carrying on with other activities I strongly believes that these are the foundation and scaffolding for ultimate physical fitness.
“The attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.” (Joseph Pilates)
