Thank you so much for being back the magic of the original Pilates !! Felt so good afterwards! I was so frustrated with all these “made up” Pilates which are bad for the body,and not nearly a great workout as yours. Thank you !!!!!

Hello, you are a great teacher. The classical method is far better than the pilates fusion we see on line. Thank you! It was a wonderful session!

Omg this is the way I learned in Pv Tky very much now i have the confidence to teach even better, for a while I was confused with all the variations on Pilates Tky much this gives me the confidence to keep teaching and feel assertive. One questions how do you feel about all the new form of Pilates ??

[@iditspiro]

That’s a great question! I think the original work is incredible, but if you’ve seen other stuff on my channel, you’ll see that most of it is not classic pilates. For people who are young and have no injuries I think it’s great, but it’s not suitable for all bodies. I know as a beginning teacher it’s confusing with so many different options; so if your students are fit and healthy its great to challenge them with the original exercises; just make sure you know how to modify if necessary. As your confidence grows, perhaps you can begin to explore other styles of pilates. If you want to check out some of my other classes I would be very interested to hear your thoughts. Hope I answered your question 😀♥️

[@עדי-ח6ס]

[@PupasAtPlay]

Your form and execution of each exercise look perfect, I envy your strength and flexibility. Were you a gymnast or a dancer growing up?

[@iditspiro]

Thanks so much for the lovely feedback. I come from a dance background, but if you look closely you’ll see I’m far from perfect, especially in exercises involving rolling as parts of my spine are much less flexible than others. That led to back problems when I was dancing, which is why I started pilates in the first place. At the beginning I struggled with the original repertoire, but like anything, practice and perseverance made things much better 🙏♥️
