THURSDAY'S THOUGHTS:
The Pilates Method Alliance Conference is around the corner! November 1st - 4th at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL. It should be awesome. Unfortunately, we (Joe's Pila-T-Shop) won't be there. It would've been fun to celebrate our 1 year anniversary at the event where we launched our Pilates T-shirt line.
We'll be there in more than just spirit, though. Look for our "Rock Your Powerhouse!" T-shirts at the PMA Booth! Joe's Pila-T-Shop has been helping to raise money for the non-profit organization's community outreach program designed to integrate Pilates training into public schools systems. We created a t-shirt specifically to raise money to help implement more pilot programs that create opportunities for children to experience the mental, physical, intellectual and emotional fitness benefits inherent to Pilates. Plus it validates to school officials the efficacy of Pilates in the Schools. Personally, I love how it makes Pilates accessible and affordable for a demographic who might not otherwise get to experience it.
Another cool thing about Pilates in the Schools is that they've collaborated with the Agatson Research Institute and their Healthier Options for Public Schools (HOPS) to help integrate Pilates and nutrition education. The two programs create a balanced model and a great foundation for a lifetime of health and wellness. Kudos to both organizations for their commitment to helping kids in a time when childhood obesity has become a national epidemic.
So, if you're at the PMA Conference this year, be sure to stop by their booth and buy a t-shirt to support Pilates in the Schools. For more information about the program, click here!
Rock Your Powerhouse!
