Thank you so much to Sonic Yoga for featuring The Co as their "August Healer of the Month"! If you haven't checked out Sonic Yoga please take some time to experience this calming space. Their instructors are intelligent movers and guide you safely into a connected and mindful movement practice. Though Pilates and Yoga are quite different they definitely support each other. Many of the clients at The Co channel what they learn in a Pilates practice to move past the plateau in their yoga practice improving their balance poses, planks, deeper hip openers, and safer spinal extensions.

I wanted to share with you some insights from our conversation that highlighted issues I've seen in my 10 years of instructing.

Teacher Feature at Form Pilates!
We are honored to be highlighted by Lindsay Lopez of Form Pilates. Check out the feature and what's going on at Form.
"It’s no surprise that Brittany Crosby, a red haired Pilates maven, is as fiery as her locks. Don’t get her wrong though — she’s as precise in her teaching as a scalpel and will get you sweating even in her hushed tones. Her visible tattoos and a wicked sense of humor is what got my attention at first glance, but her teaching passion and ability to help others heal is what had me welcoming her with open arms to the FORM family. Here’s her story:" read the whole feature here.
