Dixie Heights High School....2007 May Term

The Pilates Connexion was involved in the Junior/Senior rewards week at Dixie Heights High School.  During the week long event that rewarded students for attendance and grades, we hosted Pilates Mat classes to approximately 50 students during (2) 2.5 hour sessions.  We introduced the mat and ball work to the students, discussed the fundamentals of the pilates method and all in all gave them an outstanding workout each day. Not only once did we hear from these students how great the exercise was, but how difficult it was.  A great experience was had by all and we enjoyed teaching these young bodies and minds about the wonderful method of Pilates.
