Would-be bomber hearts Pontius Pilate
2008-04-30 01:42:00 SCHALLENBERGER SAID HE WANTED TO GO TO HEAVEN, KILL JESUS To say that 18-year-old Ryan Schallenberger, who allegedly plotted to blow up Chesterfield High School with ammonium nitrate, is a “little disturbed” would probably be an understatement. In fact, calling him anything less is like saying Madonna and Kanye West respect Jesus. Actually, it’s funny that I mentioned that… Federal authorities say a South Carolina teen accused of plotting to blow up his high school told police that he wanted to die, go to heaven and kill Jesus. [AP] So as you can see, the moral of the… wait, did that say he wanted to kill Jesus? By going to Heaven? Because I’m not a theologian here, but I’m pretty sure that plan it’s exactly going to work. I highly doubt Jesus, being the all-knowing Lord of Creation, is going to let some punk into Heaven to kill him. I could be wrong about this, but even if he did sneak in, what is he going to use to carry out this...
Pontius Pilate and Caiphas

What is the difference between yoga and Pilates?
2007-11-15 00:33:00 Let’s face it, being a woman is stressful. Most of us have to hold down careers, raise a family, keep a clean house and have dinner on the table by 6pm. Our physical health and fitness can be greatly affected by too much stress. As women we also have to deal with hormonal changes once a month and when we are pregnant our hormones are even more out of wacked. - Yoga and Pilates are two excellent forms of stress management and are also helpful in keeping our hormones and body in check. What is the difference between the two and which one is better for you? Let’s start by talking about Pilates. Pilates was created early in the 20th century. The point of Pilates is to concentrate on the development of the core of the body or as you will hear in Pilates classes the Powerhouse. For years dancers used Pilates to obtain the lean and sculpted bodies that th...

Pilates and Yoga: What's the Difference?
2007-11-12 16:20:00 Marguerite Ogle is the About.com Pilates Guide, and she does a great job. People ask me what makes Pilates different than yoga, and I usually point out basic differences: Pilates emphasizes core strength above all, in Pilates there is more moving and less holding, and the focus is more functional than spiritual. Still, they are very complementary disciplines. In her article Pilates vs Yoga Exercises Ogle compares 5 basic yoga and pilates exercises to highlight the differences. Very interesting and easy to understand.Tags: Pilates, Yoga, core strength, exercise, about.com, marguerite ogle, news, lynda lippin
RE Broker Stein Killed with Pilates Bar
2007-11-11 12:38:00 According to the NY Post, New York realtor Linda Stein was murdered by her personal assistant Natavia Lowery. In her confession, Lowery revealed that she beat Stein to death with Stein's own "Yoga stick" or "Pilates bar". Now, I always thought that if someone broke into my studio and tried to harm me I could beat them off with a stick, but this takes that thought to a whole new level.

Pilates And Preparation
2007-09-27 20:59:00 With West Ham United's recent injuries, new head of physiotherapy George Cooper has been a busy man. In a detailed interview in tonight's Citizen, he explains how the physio's role has changed since the days of the 'magic sponge', and gives the latest on the recovery of Julien Faubert...The image of footballers as sporting hard men might have softened somewhat since the 1970s and 80s, but nevertheless the concept of West Ham's tough, 6ft-something stars lining up eagerly for their Pilates session comes as a bit of a surprise. "Pilates is a massive thing we do here," explains Cooper. "It's optional but the majority of the players do it. We screen them and see who needs what and if they're a good candidate for it. I've easily got a third of them up to speed where they just do it on their own."Cooper joined the club in the summer from Charlton and is a trained Pilates instructor. He says the exercise programme, which helps build core stability through stretching and muscle con...

Pilates, now a discipline. Meet the disciple.
2007-08-27 18:58:00 "It's a not-for-profit professional body." Huh? Not for profit exercise? That's an oxymoron, isn't it? Lynne Robinson, the recognized Queen of Pilates, has formed an international Body Control Pilates Association that hasn't been established to grind out yet another buck from the exercise industry. She wants to turn Pilates into a science. As this Globe and Mail article The Queen of Pilates holds court explains, "The association sets a curriculum and a series of exams, both practical and written, that potential instructors must complete before going on to do apprenticeships in studios. It developed a Pilates instruction certification standard called L3, the world's first. Ms Robinson has established a curriculum of a 110 Pilates exercises, only 8 of which came down from Joe Pilates, the German-cum-Brit-cum-American who established the exercise regime after the 2nd WW that became so popular with dancers rehabing their injuries.

If you have been wanting to explore Pilates as an option, read on to find out exactly what you are getting yourself into.Pilates was founded around 70 years ago as a series of 500 movements designed to build up the core muscle groups of the abdominals, shoulders, back, and pelvis, while improving flexibility in the practitioner at the same time.

2007-07-08 00:42:00 I was just reviewing my website statistics for http://www.balancenter.net and noticed something pretty disturbing.In the top 5 search phrases were these two--"pilates and osteoporosis fractures" and "can pilates make your back hurt"When will people begin to understand that Pilates works on the deep stabilizers of the body in intense movements that must be learned slowly and properly? That Pilates can and should be modified for different bodies and conditions because every exercise is not necessarily good for every body? That it is important to learn from properly trained and certified teachers to avoid injury? That learning Pilates from a DVD is inappropriate and should only be undertaken if access to a Pilates teacher is impossible? And even then a well done MP3 audio would be better so you don't strain your neck.While I still do support the freedom that the Pilates community now enjoys after the landmark 2000 decision that make Pilates a generic term, the consumer needs to ...
A Pilates Studio

It's very tiring to drive over bad roads all over the island to service my clients, plus it's really confusing from a marketing perspective. I teach in people's homes and resorts, in my living room, at Bodies In Motion just for private mat, and up at a client's home gym where my reformer/tower is.It makes me tired just to write about it!Well, I finally found my pilates studio. 600 square feet on Grace bay Road at under $30 per sf (all other commercial property there is closer to $40 sf). Small bathroom, AC, fans, lots of windows, tile floor--just perfect. I feel so lucky and I am so excited.

Pilates for Weight Loss
2007-07-01 18:16:00 There's more to nutrition, weight loss than caloriesIn this great article in The Caller Pilates is touted as the best exercise method to support slimming your waist."Pilates is a great way to slim down and tone up because its main focus is strengthening the core muscles of the midsection. Pilates works to develop core strength by aligning and straightening the body from the center out. Unlike traditional weight-training programs, Pilates works the body as a whole, focusing the mind and body to work together. Every Pilates exercise is a full-body exercise. Creating lean muscle mass, as Pilates does, is one of the best ways to increase your calorie-burning potential."Tags: Diet, News, reiki, pilates, lynda lippin, caribbean, turks, caicos, turks and caicos, providenciales, energy, healing, fitness, exercise
Tip #6: Depilate all and wear comfy shoes
2007-06-13 00:49:00 Today's tip is a two-parter, but it's only going to be as long as my attention span. So be prepared for a bite-sized nugget of what I hope is shopping wisdom!1. Depilate everything you would normally depilateThere is nothing worse (in terms of shopping, at least!) than taking a bunch of skirts and dresses to the fitting rooms, then realising a) you haven't shaved and b) there is only a communal mirror.This situation has been known to lead me to hide in my cubicle and try to work out whether a dress suits me by looking down at it. Not very effective, I assure you. Plus it leaves you feeling just a bit ridiculous.I've also been known to carry black stockings around with me. I used to do this because seeing your hairy legs when you're trying on a dress can easily put you off that dress, even if it's perfect. This is because, no matter how lovely and feminine you and the dress are, your hairy legs will make you look like a man. A man in a dress. And not a lovely, androgynous, cros...

More On Pilates for Equestrians
2007-04-16 02:53:00 According to Austin, TX Statesman writer Pam Leblanc in her article Getting humans in sync with horses,"Riders say [pilates] keeps them more stable in the saddle, improves flexibility and helps them connect with their horses, all skills that can be thrown out of whack by crouching over a keyboard or slouching in a chair too long." and"Riders whose muscles are out of balance from crouching or slouching tend to round their shoulders while riding. Their lower back and hamstrings also get tight. A horse can sense that.A horse has its own natural rhythm, and like a human is right- or left-handed, a horse's spine bends more easily in one direction than the other. Its balance changes when a rider climbs aboard. A rider who's out of alignment can affect both bodies. The more the rider is aware and has control of her own body, the better the connection between the two."Tags: Equestrian, Horseback Riding, reiki, pilates, lynda lippin, caribbean, turks, caicos, turks and caicos, providencial...

Crank Pilates Calls
2007-04-11 19:00:00 Ok, this was too funny a post for me to pass up commenting! The UK Pilates Association is being plagued by a crank phone caller they affectionately call "Mr. Splits" since that's what he always asks about. Read about Mr Splits here.Back in the states I had a guy who it turns out was calling every studio in the area also asking about splits and flexibility. He was way too interested in feet in stirrups and whether we could all do the splits.Wouldn't it be funny if this was the same guy in a different country? Or if there was a secret society of these men all over the world? OY!
