At the airport, reflecting on my last few days teaching at Studio F Pilates in Vicenza, Italy. My bags are packed with 12 sets of sweaty workout clothes, a big piece of Parmesan cheese, a Panettone-style Christmas cake, and, most of all, a deep sense of gratitude for all the participants and for the organiser, Francesca Bernardi.
Francesca has been studying with me for several years. We recorded my box-assisted movement course two years ago and a Space M Yoga sequence last year. She and Aimee Challies know my material better than I do!
Grazie, grazie, grazie!
There were many returning participants, as well as some new faces. It is always a pleasure to teach in this studio. We explored a blend of strong and supple movement, with a focus on loaded range of motion.
I had my favourite pizza with a ricotta-filled crust, an amazing strong coffee, and a fun post-workout drink at a vintage bar called Quintana.
I will return in June next year.
Arrivederci!
