Just a Teaser. This week's episode really isn't an episode. Just wanted everyone to know that we're still here. It's been a wonderful summer--busy as can be--and Heidi had to take a few weeks off to take care of business. Of course, the little trip to the family cottage on the coast of Maine was nice, too! So, thanks to everyone for their continued support and hang in there! We'll be back to our regular schedule in the next week or two.

A universal story we all share as Pilates teachers around the world: Pilates is changing lives!

The focus, the discipline, the quiet of the mind and we are learning how to just be more of who we are.
