The Pilates Practice

Do you ever hesitate to post? I do… all the time. I was just having this discussion with another Pilates instructor. I would much rather just teach. I love teaching and often get so consumed by it that another day goes by and posting gets pushed down on the to do list. Having a business teaching Pilates requires social media and yes I know there are so many positives (love our community) that can come from it….but in my anxious pre-posting moments, when I’m sweating 🥵 before I press share these are just some of the many thoughts running through my head even after all these years of teaching.

💬 Is my form on point, could it be better, do I like what I’m wearing, is the lighting right, what is in the frame, does this represent the business in the best way, is someone going to call me out for this or that but then I remember Pilates is a practice (hence our studio name) and we are all working on something or just trying to get through the day and Pilates helps. 💙

In this session I was tired and feeling tight (for me) but I chose to press share anyway because our studio has always been about “the work” and here I am working hard in my private session just like we make our clients do in every one of their sessions. 💪 Exercise: Tree with the Roll Back Bar.

Happy posting to all those who are hesitant but do it anyway! 🙂
