Darien Gold, producer, writer, editor and host of the podcast, All Things Pilates, brings her style and interviewing skills she developed as a radio show host. Her intention is to reach a larger audience and give greater exposure to guests who knew or worked with Joseph Pilates. In addition, First, Second and Third Generation teachers are also featured who are passionate about the Pilates philosophy, tradition and principles. Considered to be a global phenomenon, the Pilates Method has profoundly changed both the wellness and fitness conversation. Darien’s own contribution along with her guests are preserving valuable and historical information for future generations. Darien was the first Second Generation Classical Pilates instructor to present the traditional Intermediate Mat repertoire in an app, "Studio Darien Pilates." It was also selected by Pilates Style Magazine in 2010 as one of the Top 10 Best DVDs of the Year. Two years later, Pilates Style Magazine selected her second app, "Studio Darien Advanced Pilates" for the same honor. These two apps can be purchased on the App Store and Google Play.

Dale Matzkow - The Lawrence Hayward story
In the early 1960’s, Joseph and Clara Pilates welcomed an assistant named, Lawrence Hayward into their lives. Lawrence spent so much time with Joe and Clara, documenting Joe’s work that he eventually moved in with them, spending a great deal of time in the Contrology studio. On this first episode of Season 6, we’ll hear new compelling information about Joe’s Contrology system that will make us scratch our heads and think, there’s way more to this Contrology story than most of us have been told. Lawerence himself can’t be here to talk about this part of the Contrology story and so, I’ve asked Dale Matzkow who was a student and close friend of Lawrence’s to share with us his story.

Anna Shaffer ~ Joe Pilates student/First Generation Pilates teacher
As we close Season 5, it's only fitting that we end with the student who studied with Joe Pilates the longest, Anna Shaffer. As Anna says, proper posture or “proper body alignment” as Joe reminded her throughout her studies, gives you confidence and elegance both physically and psychologically. Anna shares more memories of her time with Joe Pilates.

Paula Mourin ~ Pilates Ministry
This is a beautiful account of how Joe’s work has helped to heal the body, mind and soul. Today’s episode is a touching one. It involves the church, the prison system and a woman who took her own suffering and discovered how the power of Pilates could save her and others. My guest is Paula M, a new Pilates teacher who offers classes for church members and at a women’s local detention center. Paula refers to these classes as her Pilates ministry and her goal is to bring out the beauty in the broken. What a full circle of Joe’s life. He developed his method while incarcerated and all of these decades later, his work has returned to those who need it the most.

Sarah King ~ The ELDOA method
Have you heard of a Method called ELDOA? This modality was created by world-renowned osteopath, Guy Voyer who designed it to help bring the body into balance and to heal the spine. Our guest today, Sarah King is a Pilates teacher who teaches Guy Voyer's work to classical Pilates teachers in Berlin, Germany. Sarah has a manual therapy background so it’s no wonder she was drawn to another type of modality that has hints of yoga but also offers it within an osteopathic framework.

Happy to hear your voice
I truly enjoy your podcast and noticed your absence. Your podcast has provided me with education on parts of the pilates world I did not know.
Thanks for sharing your story about having covid. Your story will help wellness providers understand the physical, emotional, and mental effect that the covid virus can have on the body.
