Is Pilates Strength Training?

Is Pilates actually strength training? Yes… and also no, and in this solo episode I get honest about both. I dig into who Joseph Pilates really was: a sickly kid who built his method by borrowing from gymnastics, boxing, yoga, and martial arts, the first true cross-trainer, never a purist. I explain Soteria's three pillars (Pilates, Strength, Recovery), why Pilates will always be our foundation, and the real story behind the studio changes, no, I didn't take the reformers away, I made the classes smaller and more personal, and our utilization and community have grown because of it. This one's for anyone wondering whether we're still a Pilates studio. We are. We always will be. But you need more, and I'll tell you why.
