SHENPA
Master Instructor and Pilates Coordinator Stacy Weinstein
I'm not usually that philosophical when it comes to Pilates. We strengthen our cores, stretch and align, and teach you how to breathe (amongst a million other cues you'll hear us throw out there). However, I recently came across a word that I had a hard time pronouncing and remembering, but important nonetheless. Shenpa.
 
Shenpa's literal translation is attachment. It is the charge behind our emotions and thoughts and beyond our words. It's how we get hooked or stuck into habits. When we think of habits, we are used to routine, being familiar with what we are doing, having certain expectations of how things are supposed to be. Like exercise. If we don't sweat, we don't work out. If our body doesn't ache, we haven't done anything. If we try a new class, we might not like it.
 
Where's the reward if we don't take the risk? Where's the opportunity to transform if we don't change? How do we move obstacles if we don't try new things? And what's my point? To try Pilates.
 
We have amazing opportunities and ways to explore Pilates at Pura Vida as part of your membership. PurFit is incredibly unique for a Pilates studio. Described as a fast-paced, cardio-based workout on the 4th floor in the studio, you get to use the equipment hands-on in stations and a lot of movement in between. Tammy and Ann both teach challenging, yet doable classes. Yes, you can sweat, if you want, but also get to "do" Pilates.
 
Pilates Mat Fusion isn't just laying around on the floor. You might use props like a BOSU ball or weights or bands or magic circles. Jonathan and Amanda have VERY different styles and variations of exercises that can be more challenging than using the equipment in the Pilates studio.
 
Pilates Body is another opportunity to strengthen your core and stretch your limbs with variation in exercises and props. Similar to PurFit in nature, the classes will teach you Pilates principals with a bit of edge. Amanda, Tammy and Ann will mix it up every week, so you might not know what to expect.
