First class I've been in with you Jennifer and it was AWESOME! Feel compelled to be another person to thank-you for the excellent cueing and flow. The history lesson intertwined was great as well:)
"Off the mat and into our lives." This says it all! These aren't just isolated exercises or positions but a (mostly) joyful self expression of our bodies. My goal is to take the insights, strength, flexibility and balance into my day. Thanks for that reminder as well as an invigorating and inspiring class.
I love what you added here, ""Off the mat and into our lives." This says it all! These aren't just isolated exercises or positions but a (mostly) joyful self expression of our bodies." Beautifully said- a joyful expression of our bodies- awesome! Yes, that IS what it's all about - the work is meant to elevate our spirits by helping us to create a conscious and harmonious union between body and mind. So glad you got it and that you enjoyed the class!
First class with Jennifer and it was fantastic. Loved the cueing and transitions. Have never had seal cued this way - the idea of opposition and taking it into the back is a new and wonderful way of thinking of this classic exercise. Thank You!!
My husband bought me 3 of your dvds over 10 years ago. I always loved Target Specifics and have used it religiously over the years. I recently looked up your biography to see that you were a ballet dancer with Eglevsky, as I was. I am very excited to have more opportunity to take your pilates class because it grounds me.
Dear Joy, So glad you loved the class- always wonderful to hear when people learn a new way of doing something that they are familiar with and it expands horizons! Thank you for your lovely feedback and until next time! Warmly, Jennifer
A fellow Eglevsky alum! How fun! I have gotten a number of requests for a "re-make" of Target Specifics, and have a lot of great new work coming out soon- stay tuned! Delighted that you've found me again here on Pilates Anytime! Kindest regards, Jennifer
loved the class, myself being a yoga and pilates instructor it was lovely to see someone else incorporate the twq practices together... i would love to see you do a beginners class and to give options for people who are not as fit... as i love your style and cueing... thanks heaps.. namaste
Wonderful class! I love the yoga philosophy at the beginning and incorporating the teachings and principles of an ancient science. Joseph made this method for the mind, body and spirit. So often the spirit is left out in the teaching of the Pilates method, thanks for reminding us of that. :)
