Mary Bowen's Life and Legacy
Mary is a very fascinating woman.The youngest of three, Mary was a born entertainer. She had a career as an actress and comedienne, and eventually went to Joseph Pilates to help a back injury. She saw an ad that said his method was based on the babies and cats, which intrigued her despite never having a baby or a cat!
In addition to being a Pilates teacher, Mary is a Jungian psychoanalyst. After many years of practicing both, she began to merge them together, which led her to create Pilates Plus Psyche.
We are so lucky that we had the chance to sit down with Mary to talk about her family, her performing career, and how she fell into Pilates and analysis. Mary also talks about Joseph Pilates and his legacy, and what she wants to be remembered for.
Happy Birthday, Mary! Thank you!

I visited with Mary Bowen last October at her home in CT. She is an absolute pleasure to be around! She help me in SO many ways. She helped me figure out my posture, which had gotten confused for me. She reenforced in me the power of the yawn, which I had been using with clients since seeing her in Minneapolis. She helped me get an amazing stretch on the cadillac, to which I've found nothing comparable since! She also helped me in my personal life, as I just knew she would. She has a way of talking with you about what's important in your life whether you bring it up or not!
This was our third meeting and I can't wait to see her again! Anyone who is able should go see her. She is a gift.
