Pilates 101 Podcast #25 - What Makes a Great Pilates Class?

In this month's Podcast we have multiple conversations regarding what we believe to be one of the most important and most commonly asked questions by us as Pilates instructors, Pilates enthusiasts and Pilates business owners:    What makes a great Pilates class?   We have posed this question to different people, all who have an active interest in Pilates, to try and give us an idea on how to answer this very important question.    Could it be the teacher? The preparation for the class? The class contents? Or maybe the class flow? The set up? The venue? The energy or the environment?     We have answers from our Founders Glenn and Elisa Withers, various Pilates teachers from across our community and some Pilates clients who attend Pilates classes regularly, as well as a featured interview with the amazing Helen Barcellona.    Helen is an experienced Chartered Physiotherapist, fully accredited APPI Instructor & Star Pro Member. She is the co-director of Surrey Hills Physiotherapy, a central hub for the promotion of health and wellbeing in Dorking.   We really hope you enjoy this podcast, as we feel that this is one of the most interactive podcasts to date. We want to say a special thank you to all those who contributed to this episode.
