Elena Salamone ~ Pilates: Dedicated to the Duty of Healing
Can you remember what you were doing at age sixteen?
Our guest Elena Salamone does - in fact, this was the year she began learning Pilates mat work. And then, two years later, straight out of high school, Elena joined the Air Force and began training as an Aerospace Medical technician and pediatric medic. Yet, she never forgot about Pilates and for extra duty she took on a position as a physical training leader. She added Pilates to the soldier’s other workout programs and perhaps Joseph Pilates was encourging Elena, because as she lead the workouts, including his 34 mat exercises, she witnessed remarkable improvements in the soldiers fitness levels. So much so that they were able to easily pass their mandated physical test. Isn’t it ironic that Joe Pilates used his teachings with soldiers a century ago, and Elena used the same Method to empower the soldiers she worked with?
