Vineet is a long distance runner, kayaker and cyclist and when he was introduced to the Contrology system a few months ago, it was a game changer! Like a moth to light, Vineet already has integrated this Method into his training program. And, it didn’t take many lessons for him to understand the immensity of what it means to be not just fit, but Pilates fit. And as he recently stated, “I should have done this thirty years ago.”About Darien Gold ~ https://www.dariengold.com, https://www.allthingspilatespodcast.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/darien_gold_pilates_expert, https://www.instagram.com/allthingspilatespodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dariengoldMusic credits ~ Instagram: @theotherjohnmayer Support the show

Send us a textHow does this mission statement sound? “We aim to build and grow communication, opportunity, and support through continued education, business resources, and industry talks.” It almost sounds like a fortune 500 company, but it’s not. It’s the growing influence of the Pilates Global Organization co-founded by my guest today, Adrianne Yurgosky. Adrianne also helped to form the Global Pilates Association, with both of these entities having a sole purpose: To bring Pilates leaders, teachers and the various approaches of Joe’s Method under one gigantic umbrella.

Send us a textJoining me today to talk about the exercise cornerstone called Footwork is my friend and colleague, Susannah Cotrone, co-owner of Cotrone Pilates in Los Angeles who has her own take on the power of Footwork. When I was going through the certification program with Romana Kryzanowska in 1994, she told us that the Reformer workout always began with Footwork because Joe, while developing his method, created Footwork to help straighten his bowed legs. But he had other ideas as to how Footwork would be beneficial for the body. As we know, he was interested in the body’s full transformation and the Chinese Healing Arts came into play. It’s reported that Joe’s intention of infusing reflexology into the Footwork exercises meant that by massaging the various points in the feet, the internal organs would be stimulated. Additionally, Romana’s view of Footwork was that we could find it throughout the system, no matter which apparatus.
