Welcome to The Pilates Exchange, a podcast that delves deep into the art and philosophy of beautiful movement mixed with evidence-based exercise science, where we challenge myths, explore concepts, and engage in healthy debate with intrigue and curiosity. In this, our first episode, you’ll meet our host Hannah Teutscher who talks about her background in dance, Pilates, yoga, and movement, before sharing her thoughts on the current state of the movement world. Hannah shares why she believes we should be thinking holistically about how movement can help us live our lives better and challenge the unnecessary limits we put on ourselves. She sheds light on the correlation between our physical bodies and our psyche and the real reasons our clients come to us before talking about how we, as movement teachers and coaches, can better shape these experiences for them. Tune in today to find out what you can expect from this podcast, the types of guests we’ll be interviewing, and how we are going to work to create safe environments where people can be vulnerable enough to experience the magic of transformation and presence in their bodies.
