For planning purposes, below please find the 2 scheduled Level Teacher Meetings (both at the hotel)

MONDAY — July 12, 2010

Potential clients sometimes balk at the hourly rate most Pilates studios charge.  But the high cost is due to the quality training that ensures that top-notch teachers know what they’re doing.  There are many Pilates disiplines, but at Romana’s Pilates, each Romana’s Pilates Certified Iinstructor has been guided, trained, and tested by the 4 Grand Masters — either Romana Kryzanowska, or by Sari Mejia Santo, Juanita Lopez, or Cynthia Lochard — each teaching the Pilates method exactly as taught by Joseph Pilates himself.   Here’s why taking Pilates from a Romana’s Pilates trained and certified Instructor is actually an investment in your body’s future — and well worth it!

1.  The training to become a fully certified teacher is comprehensive and lengthy, lasting anywhere from one to two years.

2.  The training includes anatomy, kinesiology, and learning to teach some 500 exercises.

3.  Teachers-in-training need 600+ of apprentice hours and self-practice.

4.  A Pilates education includes knowledge about pregnancy; elderly clients; knee, hip, & neck problems; as well as spine conditions such as scoliosis, stenosis, and disc issues.

5.  The training is just the beginning, because excellence in teaching is developed through years of experience and the requirement of attending continuing education courses.

I want to ask you to step away from your mats for just a moment and hear an exciting announcement from Pure Pilates.

My name is Mark, and I have been working with Karen Winselmann of Pure Pilates for quite some time now. I have encouraged Karen for years to share her extensive experience and knowledge of Pilates with others on the Internet in the way of a blog and social media. She has made the big leap, and she has now officially joined the world of blogging.

Whether you know Karen well, or you are just getting to know her, I hope that you will join me in cheering her on with her new endeavor.

I would like to suggest subscribing to receive updates by email, with your favorite blog reader, by Twitter, or Facebook.  I expect a lot of great Pilates tips and information from Karen and the Pure Pilates staff, including details about the upcoming Romana’s Pilates Conference which Pure Pilates will host again in 2010. I am subscribed, and I am not even a Pilate’s guy. I am just the Web guy who helps Karen to bring this to you.

Please help me in congratulating Pure Pilates and wishing them a fantastic 2010.

Warmest regards,

Mark Aaron Murnahan
