Double Trouble Draw it to the Inside! – The Workout
This workshop/workout will give you a better understanding of Joes
Column of Strength! Learn where and how to use two Magic Circles
for not only increase the depth of you workout, but to find the
Column of Strength that draws you toward your midline. The Midline
is the true core of the body. The use of the two Magic Circles will
also prevent you from loosing the alignment of your Box — therefore
giving you more information and understanding of not only how to
move, but where to move from.

The Space Between – Transitions Mat
A true Pilate’s workout is one continuous flow of energy, building
and deepening from beginning to end. It is not only the exercises
but it is the space between them that creates this flow. Each
transition, at every level of the work, is a carefully constructed
link, an exercise that connects the work. These transitions, if done
correctly, not only keep your connection to the Powerhouse, but
also introduce and hone exercises to come. Learn to increase your
flow, depth of the workout and how to move though the spaces
between. Each transition is an exercise! The space between each
exercise connects you to the next and prepares your for what is to
come.
1:20 pm

and how to challenge even the strongest of strong and to achieve
the purpose of each exercise and build towards the goal that Joe
