We are many voices. Thousands more than can be heard here, but we've opened the door for some of those voices to come through. The Curiosity Mashup is YOU. It's what and who inspires you. Like you find yourself in our voices, we've found ourselves in yours.

This is literally short and very, very sweet. And we're grateful to those who contributed.

Listen. Smile. See yourself. Share.

Brooke Fricke - Re:Form Pilates, Richmond, VA

I teach Pilates because I believe it will make the world a better place, one person at a time. If we can feel better in our bodies, move with more ease and resiliency, we can discover a gateway into a much richer experience of life. It is my passion to teach others that we can absolutely, without question, get better with age. That we can thrive, build unbelievable strength and agility into our 50's, 60's, 70's and beyond.

I have a profound respect for the work of Joe Pilates, he really was a genius in his own right. I believe Pilates is one of the best, most effective ways to undo the effects of modern day life. I also just love movement and am constantly experimenting and learning different ways to bring more joy and independence to the lives of the people I have the fortune to support.

Pauline Caswell - Love Pilates, Hoylake, Wirral, UK

I have over 15 years experience as a teacher and will never stop learning. My school Biology teacher was my first inspiration for learning about the human body. Aged 13, I thought our bodies were truly amazing machines... 24 years later ....I was that Biology teacher! In 2016 I swapped the science lab for the community centre. I wanted to share Pilates in my local community. It's now a complete joy for me to be able to share these amazing benefits of moving with everyone I meet.

One of my favourite thoughts: "Everything is connected!"
