Pilates Scientists

I'm in Sacramento, CA right now. I'm taking a course that is training us to teach Anatomy in Clay through Balanced Body University. I'm surrounded by the most intelligent, sensitive, supportive, and hilarious Pilates instructors and bodyworkers from all over the world, and it reasserts this idea that I have about instructors. There are two kinds. There are plain instructors, and then are truly Pilates scientists. There are those who learn a system of exercises and how to modify them, and then there are these amazing people who examine it from all sides, turn it inside and out and come up with purpose and intention for the traditions and new proven ways to use the method with incredible results.

I've always wanted to be the latter, but until now haven't been connected to the resources. Now, I have this amazing network, and the journey begins.
