-Elevator Speech - -Pilates is a method of exercise and physical movement
designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. With systematic
practice of specific exercises coupled with focused breathing patterns.
Classical Pilates uses few repetitions and a large variety of movements so
that precision can be practiced without fatigue and be frequently reinforced.
-What makes Peak Pilates authentic and unique? As a reference (not to talk
to with clients) - -1. We teach neutral spine but is not the goal. Neutral spine
is natural gravity of their own body standing. The curve will be less in supine
and we do not want to force the curve. 2. Optimal alignment is neutral pelvis.
You can teach in and out of neutral pelvis. Neutral pelvis is different for each
person.
-What makes Peak Pilates authentic and unique? - -1. Transition is still an
exercise. It mimics something you will do on your daily life. Links the
exercises together...becomes a dance. 2. Focus on flow. Concentration and
precision develops endurance and stamina. The endurance and stamina
provides cardio. 3. It is taught as a movement system linked intelligently
with purpose. 4. Teaches each exercise with a unique and dynamic rhythm.
5. Teaches Pilates in its original form. Learning classical Pilates..only thing
changed is how to help the body. 6. Uses systematic order. Level order.
Learn the recipe before breaking down the recipe. 7. Recommends to teach
one on one and small group. 8. How to help others with injuries or cases? 9.
Sessions have a beginning, middle, end. Begins supine and ends vertical. 10.
Focus on movement and transition with concentration.

(These principles are not magic. They are simply good sound practices that

-What is concentration? - -Increases total body proprioception, making
movements automatic and ingrained
-What is Centering? - -All movement comes from the center. It is the focal
point of each exercise.
-What is control? - -Brings all parts of the body and mind into a physical
movement experience.
-What is breathing? - -Full exhalation and inhalation increases oxygen
supply to cells with increased waste removal. It stimulates breathing,
facilitates core support, and initiates movement.
-what is precision? - -Not what you do, it's how you do it. Every movement
has a purpose. Every cue or instruction is important to execution.
-What is flowing movement? - -Pilates is light and fluid. Working with
flowing movement facilitates pilates movement into daily life. Creation of
fluid movement will help trigger points from forming into releasing those that
already exist.
