Get Great Pilates Reformer Workout At Home! | Anne Samoilov Pilates

(…even without expensive studio equipment)

So, you’ve bought your reformer…Maybe it’s a home version of the studio machines you are used to working on. Maybe it’s a sub-$500 model that uses a bungee style chord instead of the springs.  Maybe it’s a resistance band setup that hooks up to a door and mimics a reformer.  Whatever you have chosen, I’m here to tell you that you still can get a great workout at home…

Here are a few simple things to remember and try…the first one being my personal favorite!!

Check out this blog post on a great website I like to visit every few days...Especially since it's almost Thanksgiving where Food is a main focus of the holiday. It's a good reminder that even if you do get off track, you can always get right back on at the next meal. Also, keep movement going. Take a Pilates Class, Go for a Hike, Start a New Home Workout program.

Starting Your Pilates Business Online?

If you just put up a website and are starting to build your business on the web, you probably aren't sure where to start.  I know that's where I was only a few months ago.

There is a fabulous FREE training website that has helped me tremendously just understanding what it takes to get traffic and giving me tools to actually get that traffic.  Even if you aren't a pilates instructor, you might want to push your studio over the top and get more visibility for your services.  Maybe your web-person is already doing that for you.  This training course is a great way for you to understand ways that you personally can build your business using free methods. 

I'm not going to say free again, but check out the Thirty Day Challenge.  You don't have to finish the course in 30 days but it gives you a step by step daily set of videos and instruction.  The lessons are easy to follow and you can watch and re-watch the material.  You can even download the lessons to your ipod or iphone. This is what I do to more complex lessons that I don't "get" the first time through.

Even though I have technically finished the Thirty Day Challenge, I'm only beginning my education, so join me!
