Get the Girlies Moving!

What even is Pilates? And is it worth the hype?

Episode Summary

In this episode of Get the Girlies Moving, we’re going back to the actual method—where Pilates came from, the principles it was built on, and what separates it from simply doing a workout on a mat or reformer. In today’s episode, we’re chatting about: • The core principles of Pilates and why they actually matter • Why breath, control, and the mind-body connection can completely change the way you move • How to tell if you’re actually practicing Pilates—or just taking a really good workout class • And, of course… whether Pilates is actually worth all the hype Pilates has been changing bodies long before Instagram, matching sets, and the current Pilates craze—and we think there’s a reason for that. We love Pilates. Like, really love Pilates. And we want you to understand why. So whether you’ve taken 300 classes or you still have no idea what a reformer is, have a listen while we break down the method behind all the hype. 💗 Tell us in the comments: Whats your favorite part of Pilates or something this episode taught you? Love you, girlies!!
