I feel very grateful for the podcast. I'm very appreciative because I teach in Indianapolis and don’t always feel camaraderie. Sometimes I feel I'm kind of isolated with my ideas or my thoughts or even with an every day things like, "Hmmmm, how could I teach that better?" Just simple things too. So then when I listen to the podcast I feel like I’m suddenly united with my people. And I have a community of people that I didn’t even know were thinking about things far beyond what I had imagined. It makes my world so much bigger. It makes my world so much better. I feel connected. And I’m so grateful! -- MJ Gregory, Owner Pilates 317, Indianapolis, IN

All of these episodes, for me, leave me with a sense of hope and that’s a beautiful thing to be left with. Whether that’s because I’ve heard somebody’s story of incredible resilience and triumph. Whether we’re talking about body intuition and agency or empathy and connection and community. I feel like each of these episodes, in some way shape or form, underscores the importance of hope. -- Leslie Bayer, Emerging Pilates Teacher (and Teacher of Teachers), Lodi, CA

About the Show

We are officially wrapped! Season two comes to a close with a heartfelt and very tender conversation with three wonderful teachers from across the U.S.

Here's what we're up to in this, our grand finale, finale, finale (because clearly one is just not enough):

Overlapping past knowledge with teaching
Convergence of skills and interests and passion
Showing up for teaching and being able to be with other humans, sharing the human experience
Addressing + working through limiting beliefs and how we address it within our scope of practice. How? How? HOW?
Body agency, stewardship + the NOT FIXING mentality
De-shaming the body + waking people up to their own potential
Embracing discomfort
When shit gets real

Take a deep breath. It's time to let it settle. We'll be back soon so you have some time to catch up before Season 3 rockets you into outer space...all over again (at least we hope.)

Listen. Feed yourself. Feed your community. Nurture your movement soul. And SHARE the love!
