Just Start!

I ran into an old friend at a family event recently and she told me she always wanted to try Pilates.

She even bought a gift card to her local studio. 

But you know how it is, gift cards can stay folded up and tucked in our purse without a second thought and this one went unused.

I encouraged my friend to try again because the truth is, Pilates is a great exercise system that sometimes I feel has a bit of an intimidation factor like we’re training for Cirque du Soleil instead of training for real life. All those perfect teasers posted all over the internet might block us from seeing Pilates is really for everybody.

That’s why it’s important to take the first step and simply start. It can seem like there’s a dizzying number of steps and you’ll never arrive, but like every other commitment in life, it’s really one step at a time.

And, then another.

You start by training at home via zoom and adjust to fit your needs. Pilates works you from head to toe and you’ll feel the work right away.

All you need to do is start.
