December 09, 2025 Heidi Miller ~ The Mentor's Table
Send us a text
Support the show
As the former host of the very first Pilates podcast called Beyond the Movement which began in 2005, Heidi Miller is our guest in this last interview of Season 7. Heidi held conversations with teachers in part about how effective and powerful the Pilates Method is especially beyond the studio. But in today’s environment with social media as the dominant connector, what’s been revealed is an ugly truth about the Pilates profession. Many teachers instead of being supportive and encouraging, diminish their peers and worse, many are bullied. I too, have been acutely aware of the lack of encouragement amongst many Pilates colleagues.

November 25, 2025 Elvira M. ~ Think you need narcotics? Try the Universal Reformer instead! ~ An arachnoiditis story
Send us a text
Have you ever heard of arachnoiditits? I know, neither had I..But my guest today has. In fact, she’s suffered from this autoimmune issue for the last 20 years. I wonder how Joe Pilates would treat a person with this type of disease which has no cure. Tune in as Elvia M. shares her process from being told she was destined to be in a wheelchair for the rest of her life to discovering the healing power of the Pilates Method. It didn't just provide physical therapy for her, it planted a whole new, deep-rooted system that helped to stabilize and keep Elvira's spine upright.

My guest today Chloe Bircher Thompson, a Pilates teacher living and working in England has lived with these 2 devestating disorders.

October 14, 2025 Roberta Kirschenbaum (Part One) ~ Guiding Hands: The Role of Touch in Teaching Contrology
Send us a text
Today we’re talking about one of the most powerful and sometimes not completely understood tools we have as Pilates teachers; Touch. The benefits are many: alignment correction, safety, connection, grounding and encouragement. When does it help? When might it harm? And how do we navigate those moments with clarity and care? To help break it all down is Second Generation traditional Pilates teacher, Roberta Kirschenbaum. However, just as we learn about the power of touch from a seasoned Pilates teacher, Part one closes with a dire message. Coming up next on episode 124: Betrayal in the House that Joe built. This is Roberta’s story of a trust she gave that was then abused.

September 16, 2025 Elena Salamone ~ Pilates: Dedicated to the Duty of Healing
Send us a text
Can you remember what you were doing at age sixteen?
Our guest Elena Salamone does - in fact, this was the year she began learning Pilates mat work. And then, two years later, straight out of high school, Elena joined the Air Force and began training as an Aerospace Medical technician and pediatric medic. Yet, she never forgot about Pilates and for extra duty she took on a position as a physical training leader. She added Pilates to the soldier’s other workout programs and perhaps Joseph Pilates was encourging Elena, because as she lead the workouts, including his 34 mat exercises, she witnessed remarkable improvements in the soldiers fitness levels. So much so that they were able to easily pass their mandated physical test. Isn’t it ironic that Joe Pilates used his teachings with soldiers a century ago, and Elena used the same Method to empower the soldiers she worked with?

September 02, 2025 Sandra Schonrock ~ Mind, Body, Hormones. Enter: Pauseology
Send us a text
By now, most of you’ve heard of Contrology, the name Joe Pilates gave his exercise system, but have you ever heard of Pauseology? In this episode, Pilates studio owner, Sandra Schonrock, our guest who lives in New Zealand was having a rough time during menopause and while researching ways to help ease her discomfort she realized that if she was receiving conflicting information, other women were too, and an idea was born. Her studio, Contrology New Zealand Authentic Pilates, is attracting many women seeking ways including exercise to ease the challenges that menopause brings.
But Contrology is just a part of the Pauseology brand and Sandra has been on a mission to introduce her students to the best health products and medicines New Zealand has to offer to help mitgate menstrual symptoms. Although Pauseology is designed for women, it can also impact men as they see their wives, daughters, sisters or mothers suffering.

Our guest is Jillian Hessel, a Second Generation Pilates teacher who has had the great privilege of learning from many of Joe Pilates’ students, including Kathy Grant and Carola Trier - both became Jillian's mentors, and a very soulful bond developed between Jillian and another JP student, Ron Fletcher. Jillian refers to herself as a teacher of hybrid movement modalities and incorporates ballet, Iyengar yoga and the different approaches of Contrology in to her teaching. Her diligence in caring for the Pilates legacy she so generously was given, makes her an extremely valuable addition to the Pilates community. I’ve asked Jillian to let us in on her thoughts about forty-three years of sharing her life’s work.
