Joe’s Challenge Continues !!!

Joe’s Challenge Continues until April 30!

...and the winner will be announced!!!

 
Here’s a quote from a client who is finished with her 30 sessions…
 
“I finished my 30th class yesterday for the 30 class challenge.  I went into the challenge to re-focus on the core exercises and to become stronger.  I have enjoyed taking classes with several different instructors and having different types of workouts.  As Cary discussed in a class, I have been and will continue to do each exercise with intention.  It is difficult sometimes after a long day at work, to focus in class, but it is nice to have these challenges to re-focus on the exercise and use the correct form.”
Thanks – Lindsay
Remember you have until the end of April to get in your 30 sessions from your start date!  
Make sure and send us your 3 quotes about how Joe’s Challenge helped your Pilates practice after

with Shaina Boylan
Sundays,  April 15, 22, 29, May 6

This 4 week series is designed to introduce you to the Pilates Jump board! The Pilates Jump board is a great way to add cardio and strength training into your workouts without impact. You’ll be laying on the Pilates reformer on your back and also on your side “jumping” in ways that will strengthen your core muscles and all of the muscles in your legs, thighs and hips! It’s unlike any cardio workout you’ve ever experienced! All movements are done with special attention to alignment and core engagement so that you are working your muscles most efficiently and safely.
This class is not recommended for those who have injuries, back pain or neck pain.  If this is you, start with a complimentary private session to get an instructors recommendation if this is you!
Space is limited to 4 participants!
