Good Form and Does It Even Matter?

The Pilates Lounge

"Good form means that our clients are safe." -KATIE CRANE

In this episode of the Pilates Lounge, I delved into the topic of form in Pilates and its significance in teaching and practicing the discipline. The discussion stemmed from a viral reel on Instagram that sparked a debate on the importance of form. I explored the definition of form, emphasizing its role in configuring classes, improving movement, and creating a positive experience for clients.

 I highlighted the subjective nature of good form, tailored to individual bodies and goals. Good form, to me, is about observing, listening, and proactively working with each client to enhance their Pilates experience.

 I underscored the connection between good form, control, safety, and the ability to add complexity to exercises. Ultimately, I stressed the importance of upholding industry standards, providing quality education, and fostering a community of dedicated Pilates instructors. 

Through my mentorship programs and workshops, I aim to equip aspiring instructors with the necessary skills to uphold the principles of Pilates and carry the torch for future generations. J
