Pilates is not yoga. There is no spiritual connection with anything higher except for yourself and believe me that's plenty. Pilates is not Physical Therapy. Although it can be used as a form of therapy for people who have injuries, I like to think of it primarily as Prehabilitation instead of Rehabilitation. Pilates is not a competition. There are no awards or trophies given to the students who pump the fastest Hundred. Pilates is not a replacement for cardiovascular exercise. This is not to say that Pilates can't be cardiovascular but you need a very strong foundation to be able to perform the exercises at speeds required to get heart rate up.

About Me

- OK, I love food but a girl's got to maintain her figure so Pilates is my answer. I have been practicing and teaching Pilates for about 10 years and it's my solution to staying fit. I own a studio called pilates co-op brooklyn where we have small group classes and private lessons but I also travel around the city teaching in private residences. But back to the food...I love to talk about food stuff; restaurants, new kitchen gadgets, recipes, chefs, etc. I also love pop culture, fashion, culture, art and I have a huge space in my heart for Brooklyn. And if you're wondering what 'Pump Hundreds' means, take a Pilates class. check out the studio at www.pilatescoopbrooklyn.com
