  • 245. The Case for Ugly Pilates, with Kyle Marsh and Natalie Wilson

    This is the second episode in a limited series hosted by Natalie & Kyle.

    On this episode, Kyle and Natalie talk about the historical and cultural underpinnings of our collective obsession with aesthetics in movement--the how and why we prioritize making pilates controlled, precise, and beautiful. They talk about our evolution from prioritizing these qualities to focusing more on client goals and movement variability.

  • 240. How to make good decisions, with Raphael Bender

    If you're working hard but not progressing either in your Pilates business, or in your teaching, you're probably working on the wrong things.

    If that's true, you need better decisions, not more work.

    Working harder on the wrong thing won't move you closer to your goal.

    This is my decision making framework. It's made me a lot of money and helped me immensely in my personal life too.
