Pilates: A Prescription for Everyone - I’ve done many different workout routines throughout my life. Like many, I switched it up for various reasons, but the main reason was simple: I never felt like any of the workouts were truly complete. They always seemed to be lacking in some way, whether it was the strength aspect, flexibility, or overall balance. That changed when I walked into a Pilates reformer studio. Suddenly, I found the complete package I had been searching for.

Starting with "why" is the most important question you can ask yourself. It's the foundation that keeps you committed to achieving your goals and becoming who you’re meant to be. Without a solid, unwavering "why," it's easy to lose focus or give up when challenges arise. For much of my adult life, I thought I knew my "why" for trying to lead an active, healthy life. If I'm being 100% honest, I believed it was all about looking good and feeling good. I was taught from a young age to stay active, eat my veggies, avoid too much sugar, and not watch too much TV. I'm sure many of you can relate to this. But despite these good intentions, the latest exercise fad, diet, or product always faded into the background after a while. My lifestyle changes weren’t sustainable because my "why" wasn’t rooted in something deeper. I had to dig deep to find my real "why," the anchor that would hold me steady through life’s inevitable challenges.
