Most of my clientele undergo several injuries at young ages yet continue to perform at such high levels. I am challenged and in awe daily by witnessing what their bodies must be prepared for and succumb to when falls do occur (rotation, lateral flexion, extension, core stability and overall sense of balance and control are huge for them) These "kids" have so much body knowledge and undergo so much strength training that sometimes I wonder if they feel that Pilates is powerful enough. Because Pilates is so different than weight training and extreme cardio this is creates a challenge for me, which I thrive upon to grow and do more with my base skills. As we all know, developing new angles and research to take us to the next level to better help clients is what makes us tick. I would enjoy networking with those who also work with this caliber of athelete so we can share and grow together. Keep up the good work benefiting the rest of us! - Michelle Kelly, I am working with World Cup Class Skiers and US Ski Team members in Park City, Utah “lucky live Park City”.
