       Both Ron and Joe expressed the importance of moving the body in a dynamic, precise and graceful way. This approach elevates a movement practice to a higher level of fulfillment for both the student and the teacher.

  • ‘The quality of the work is more important than the quantity of time spent.’
  •       - Ron Fletcher from Every Body is Beautiful 
  • 'Correctly executed and mastered to the point of subconscious reaction, these exercises will reflect grace and balance in your routine activities.'
  •       - Joseph Pilates from Return to Life Through Contrology
  • '...learn the right way to do it, using your whole self-correctly.’
  •       - Ron Fletcher from Every Body is Beautiful

       It can be difficult to determine what defines qualitative movement. What is 'quality of movement' to you? How do you define this concept and incorporate it in your teaching?
