“In 10 sessions you’ll feel the difference, in 20 you’ll see the difference, and in 30 you’ll have a new body.”
Joseph Pilates

Classical Pilates Mat Work, a system invented by Joe Pilates and originally called Contrology, promotes physical, mental and emotional well being addressing the two main concerns of society today: fitness and stress.

Modern lifestyles have grown increasingly less active and more stressful, impacting quality of life. The pace of today’s society, the aging worldwide population, and the now-public awareness of the mind-body connection has created an increasing interest in Classical Pilates as a mind, body and spirit connection. unknown-9

“If your spine is inflexibly stiff at 30, you are old. If it is completely flexible at 60, you are young.”
by Joseph Pilates

Science shows that the body needs to learn how to move correctly. The ability to perceive movement properly is rarely emphasized in modern training methods, allowing dysfunction to develop. While the brain recognizes basic movement patterns, it does not naturally focus on muscles or muscle groups or know how to sequentially build upon basic patterns of movement in a healthy way. Joe Pilates understood these issues and to deal with muscle group training requirement he invented this wonderful system that I am teaching today where I remain faithful to the original method allowing you to feel the intended benefits from the very beginning!

“Change happens through movement and movement heals”
by Joseph Pilates

Joe Pilates Invented the System called Contrology and today I teach both the Classical System and the Classical Pilates Mat Work.

I have just relocated to Roanoke, Virginia USA and I am now preparing to teach Classical Pilates Mat Work; I am available for private sessions; and looking forward for new places where I can share with all of you the original Mat Exercises invented for our Joe Pilates.

“Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness. Our interpretation of physical fitness is the attainment and maintenance of a uniformly developed body with a sound mind fully capable of naturally, easily, and satisfactorily performing our many and varied daily tasks with spontaneous zest and pleasure.”
Joseph Pilates

Amy’s answer: Everybody is welcome. Different bodies/shapes allow us to learn more about how Classical Pilates can support us.

LuzLife: What difference between the Pilates and the Classical Pilates Method?

Amy’s answer: The Classical Method originates directly from Joseph Pilates and uses his systems to achieve results.

Pilates in its generic term is refers to all threads of Pilates from a more contemporary approach to the Classical Method.

LuzLife: How you met Luz?

Amy’s answer: I first met Luz in 2014 at the Classical Pilates Convention UK which Everybody Pilates organizes. Our convention was created to bring together people who have a passion for Pilates. Luz delved into the Classical Pilates System with enthusiasm and passion to gain more understanding of her body.
Following the Convention Luz and I continue to work together weekly to discover more and more about Classical Pilates. We learn about the body and then we workout!

What a wonderful work!

The Arm Chair was introduce to me by Mr. Jay Grimes in Pisa, Italy this May 2015 and Mr. Jay Grimes from www.vintage.com when I have the opportunity to have a private lesson with him. As everybody knows regarding my cervical spine conditions and surgery and Mr. Jay remember exactly how was and how big was my fear…

The great energy and the contagious smile of Mr. Jay made me feel relax and I was so exited to have him as a my teacher this time; after long fly and was the first student starting a day before of the official opening date give me the feeling that all what I am been waiting for the last 20 months is going to give me the fruits and greenery my own path as a eternal pilates student.

Mr. Jay Grimes give a marvelous advice regarding my body and invalance and of course he said to me “Luz you are thinking too much”. Mr. Jay knows I was terrified to fail or do something wrong… I know I did what I was available to do and just my body memories knows from then until now.

Deep inside of me I know he was right… so now I am just move and of course breathing. Enjoying and getting stronger every day.

To have the opportunity to be under Mr. Jay Grimes a Master Teacher and The Elder and eyes, has been a perfect moment in my path. opening more, reaching more, and get connected again and again. My cervical spine was free of stiffness and my shoulder more relaxed. And I discovered my back again!

Every single day I am learning something new, something that made me feel that with perseverance and a lot of patience we can reach our own goal and share the marvelous experience.

Walking Meditation practice at Classical Pilates Convention

https://luzlife.com/wp-content/themes/osmosis/images/empty/thumbnail.jpg 150 150 LuzLife LuzLife https://luzlife.com/wp-content/themes/osmosis/images/empty/thumbnail.jpg May 20, 2015 May 20, 2015

Unknown-2 Practicing walking meditation at Classical Pilates Convention in Pisa?

My answer is Yes!

walking meditation – is a form of the expression of our mind and body to clean and detox the path; connecting with the five elements and restoring the internal organs; listening the movements and changes of the flow, be aware of the present moment; is a form of meditation in action in movement. And Pilates is Movements so I did!

I choose one of my Private Pilates Sessions and I decided to be in contact with the Nature, early morning, fresh and green start; hugging a trees, and just trying to keep the silence and listening my breathing. Be tune with the Universe and what your body need is one of my fundamental. Stay simple real and be still. I was awesome experience! I am sure that we enjoy it!

Enjoying the silence and just breathing and listening the heart. My teacher was with me and hope she enjoyed too.

Walking meditation we use the experience of walking as our focus. We become mindful of our experience while walking, and try to keep our awareness involved with the experience of walking. Actually, there are several different kinds of walking meditation. We’ll just be looking at one of them in detail, although we’ll touch on the others. Once you’ve mastered one form, you’ll easily be able to pick up the others.

Obviously, there are some differences between walking meditation and sitting meditation. For one thing we keep our eyes open during walking meditation! That difference implies other changes in the way we do the practice. We are not withdrawing our attention from the outside world to the same extent that we do when we are doing the Mindfulness of Breathing or Metta Bhavana (development of lovingkindness) practices.

Love, Movement and Pilates with LuzLife

Developing the balance between the monkey mind and just breathing give the answer of everything that I was wondering. My mind was clear and free and I hugs a tree, smell the flowers and I collected a Pine Cone that I am sure is the house of one of the magic creature they living in the forest. Now is at the Lotus LuzLife Studio; sharing with us the stillness and the Movements

Metta,

So here I am, enjoying my day today and be part of the Universe, about my wonderful new path I can speak. I will be able to meet the Teachers at Vintage Pilates in few hours and that is a gift. Gift from the Universe that I am able to move and feel the peace from within.

I understand that perhaps I had a choice in this matter, how I am move, how I am breath.

How much I am learning this time. I don’t regret that certain things happened to me. I am understand that perhaps I had a choice in the matter, how ever I choice to move again with freedom and less fear. And I am the perfect imperfection.

After 21 months my new path has reborn for better.

I am living my own dream: and my dream is come true: I will have fun as Amy Kellow, my Classical Pilates Teacher said to me few days ago. And I am determinate to have fun!

And of course share with all of you my own experience as a teacher and as a eternal student.

Amy Kellow, will be in Qatar, this November 2015; please for more information about Amy; www.everybodypilates.co.uk
