The best teacher is within each of us and knowledge is gained through personal practice. Students often lament that they were at their Pilates best during their training due to hard study and sweat needed to graduate. When receiving diplomas, new teachers are told that this is only the beginning. Teaching clients and running a studio can slowly put a focus on our clients and the original joy of doing the work can be lost. Teaching can become theoretical rather than experiential. When does the teacher gift themselves time for recovery of a personal practice? How does one begin to do this? In the beginning, Joe Pilates’ passion was to create an exercise regimen that would build the physical body so that all could enjoy a vigorous lifestyle and become our best. If Joe were here, he might have said to all who teach his work to get onto the mat or reformer and “just do it”.
