Can I just say: having friends waiting to meet you for a workout online is FABULOUS! Life is about community and we’ve created just that with the Virtual classes coming at you LIVE from the Effortless Movement Broadcasting Center. (Yep, that’s what my Pilates studio has become. It’s called “pivoting.”) You’ll meet your classmates each week (or 2, 3…even 5x a week) and they’re HAPPY TO SEE YOU. We also reserve a little time at the beginning and end to share tidbits about what’s going on in each other’s lives. Everyone LOVES IT when kids or pets wander into the screen and we all get a little peek into each other’s home life. Even though I’m teaching from the studio, Betti the bulldog occasionally beams in from my house, when Frank can jump on Zoom with her.
Autumn Term runs Sept 28 – Dec 11. (start is 1 week later than credit classes)
No classes: Wed 11/11 Veterans Day; Mon – Fri 11/23 – 11/27 Thanksgiving week
MAT CLASSES: Mon/Wed/Fri
Online Registration opens 7am August 12th at http://www.pcc.edu
Please have a few items handy for class: 1) mat; 2) strap or belt; 3) small hand weights or cans of soup or bottles of water; 4) squishy ball or rolled up towel and 5) a desk or dining chair. I can also sell you any of these items, except the desk chair. Click here >> Equipment for Home
When you join the class on Zoom, you can choose to see everyone or just me. I’m demonstrating the exercises AND checking in with you to see what we need to adapt on the fly. You’ll have access to the class videos for 1 week after class — I email those out within 24 hours of the class occurring. No worries if you haven’t been on Zoom yet — all you need is a computer/tablet/smart phone with a camera and an internet connection. We have a team at Portland Community College helping people get set up! (we’re all learning new things — you can do this!)
