Scoop. Where to begin... I am so pleased to be participating in Lolita San Miguel's Master Mentor program. I have had the amazing, once in a life time experience, to work with someone that not only was taught by Joseph Pilaties, but one of only two people in the world that was actually certified by Joe himself. My husband asked "Really, another certification?" but he knew how much this meant to me. We are both along for this amazing ride and he enjoys hearing Lolita's stories as much as me. I am honored and humbled to be involved in the "inaugural 12" disciples in Lolita's Master Mentor program. More important, I LOVE sharing this new information with my clients, apprentices and other Pilates instructors. Joe considered his work to always be evolving and I thank Lolita for instilling this philosophy within me.
TEENS ROCK! I have never had such an amazing experience as this year in working with the two Teen Esteem groups. The young women had so many talents, so many ideas, unique thoughts, artistic ability and most important individuality. I thank the parents for letting me mentor your teens. I thank the teens for introducing me to a great book The Thirteen Reasons Why . I learned from them and through that have decided to re-name the program. We were not all about Pilates, but about moving and respecting our bodies. We will be having a summer group and it will be their job to come up with a name... we will still be "TEEN Esteem" and we will remain unique to ourselves. This is such a confusing time in a young woman's life and we need to remember that they need to be mentored through these years.
ADULTS! We need you assistance. Are you a writer? Photographer? Flower Arranger? Zumba teacher? Theatre Performer? We want you to be involved in workshops with our teens. If you are interested in positively influencing the lives of young women... be involved. If you are a business and would like to donate to this program... call. . us.
With all we are going through in the world, we need to remember some very important qualities of life. We are given one body, one brain, one heart, one soul. It is our job to take care of it. If we neglect our body we are not true to our inner self. The SELF that makes us... us. Be true to you, take care of you and connect your mind to your body. PILATES.
Thank you!
