Hello Real Pilates community!

I know gratitude month has passed and we are fully entrenched in December, but given that I spent all of last week sitting down for one on one face time with each of my extraordinary team members, I must take one more opportunity to say how incredibly thankful I am to come to work each day with such uniquely talented and truly gifted individuals.  Wow!

Moving on  - our December theme here at RP is Community. Each December, goal setting is a routine part of my year-end tasks and sharing this process with each instructor forges our plans moving forward and solidifies the company culture.  Now at the end of this year's process, I can assure you that this teaching community is poised to do great things, both in and out of the studio.

Community is defined as a body of individuals who share.  They may share a geographical location for sure, but more and more community has come to mean a group of people who share an idea, a sense of identity or a belief. 

The Real Pilates community is definitely rooted in a few core beliefs.

~We believe in the system of Pilates as a tool for repair, maintenance and conditioning.  

~We believe in the power of one-on-one training as the quickest way to train the mind and body as a unit and drive total well being through hands on and creative verbal cueing. 

~We believe that alignment is at the heart of most physical issues and that optimizing this one element will exponentially improve all other aspects of physical well-being.

~We believe in lots more but the big thing is that we believe in our students' extraordinary potential.  We believe in our role as supporters of this potential and we revel in each success no matter how small.

Each day that the phone rings at Real Pilates, a new member of our community enters the fold.  Someone who believes in intelligent exercise and a deeper approach to fitness. It's thrilling to continue to serve this larger community even as our own internal community grows both within and alongside its larger family.  Take time to set your own goals for the coming year this month and know that this teaching community will be right there beside you every step of the way.  

See you at the studio
