It is amazing, inspiring and a blessing to me to see the life-changing work Pilates brings to each of my clients not only in their workouts but also in the practice of life. One aspect I have learned to teach and live by while being mentored by Wendy, our Master teacher, is that the clients are the experts in what their bodies need as well as what they desire in reaching their fitness goals. When clients grab hold of that, transformation happens!! Their bodies and their life habits change, which empowers them to see what they have never experienced before—that we are our best coaches/trainers as we listen to ourselves instead of what we are told we are "supposed" to look like.
