New Monthly Feature: Exercise questions revealed through short video clips
| We love your passion and enthusiasm to learn more and go deeper with your Pilates Practice. Each month, we will highlight a specific Pilates exercise on the mat or equipment and break down the technique so you can learn even more. Do you have a specific exercise in mind that you'd like us to feature? Please email Bonny-Lynn here your question and she'll do her best to answer.
In the meantime, here is a fun and pretty accurate animation film on the history of Pilates. A few of the dates are slightly different then what we learned, but it's a great recap of our wonderful Method's history. Thanks to Taube Pilates for this great video.  | | An Animated History Of Pilates |

New Prenatal classes at Embody
|
We are so excited for this new venture to offer Moms-to-be in the Bow Valley. Embody Pilates is teaming up with Anne-Marie Fafard to co-teach a Prenatal class. Anne-Marie is completing her Doctorate of Manual Osteopathy and is a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist. She is also a new mom and did Pilates at Embody until days before her delivery.
In this unique class, Anne-Marie will lead the first 15 minutes with specific exercises around the pelvic floor and pelvic support structure. The remaining 40 minutes will be taught by owner of Embody Pilates, Bonny-Lynn Russell, who will safely lead the class through a Pilates Practice utilizing the equipment and apparatus. There is a maximum of 5 participants per class so expect lots of individual attention on form and attention to your needs. Anne-Marie and Bonny-Lynn have come up with a progressive 8 week course that is both safe and beneficial for pregnant women.
The cost including both teachers and all equipment provided is $285.00.

What is Restorative Mat?
This gentle, slow paced, class is an excellent way to reconnect to your body. Pilates fundamentals, gentle stretching, and safe bio-mechanical principals will be explored. Wonderful way for students with injuries, mobility issues or pain to come learn in a safe and supportive manner. Think of it as a gentle moving meditation to explore the body's anatomy and movement potential through guided visualizations and gentle movement. Offered Tuesdays at noon with Basia.
