I Love My Staff!


I am so honored to share my workdays with my brilliant Pilates staff. The teachers at Pilates on 10th are truly some of the best! All have backgrounds in movement or dance or athletics and all have continued to expand their knowledge through various workshops and classes. I love watching them interact with our clientele and hearing their thoughtful assessments and gentle encouragements.

What I enjoy most about our group is that we are not all of the same "brand" of Pilates. We come from varied certification schools and are able to share our knowledge with each other.  By trading lessons with each other we learn new variations and different forms of cueing. Sometimes hearing, saying or showing something in a slightly different way can make a huge difference to the client.

I try to encourage my clients to get lessons from all the teachers. We keep detailed notes on each client and what they did in every lesson so the teacher will know what your working on and what to watch out for. If you find a favorite teacher it's OK to stick with them for awhile. But if they go on vacation try out someone new! You might be surprised what you learn that will carry over to your regular routine.

Our teachers are smart, safe, careful, gracious, effective, courteous and inspiring. I am proud to have them here. So thank you amazing staff of mine. Keep up the superb work!


See you at the studio,
Amie
