Joe Pilates began observing the natural movement of animals from a very young age, and his Method of body-mind-spirit development was greatly influenced by those observations. Christina Maria Gadar has combined her passion for Joe's Method with her love of children and animals to create the Pilates Animals Workout(R), or P.A.W. for short. The Pilates Animals Workout(R) presents Joe's original work in a creative way that captures the imagination of children. Joe hoped that his Method would be part of the lives of young children, and the Pilates Animals Workout(R) is one way to make his vision a reality. Pilates is both physical and mental conditioning, and with this book, parents and children can work together to sharpen those skills. With "The Pilates Animals Workout" as their guide, parents can help their children learn to move like animals. And children can help their parents rediscover how much fun it is to use their imagination. It's never too early, or too late, to feel as fit as an animal!
"First Educate the Child!" In his book, YOUR HEALTH, Joe Pilates made it very clear that he wanted children to learn his system of body-mind-spirit development. In fact, there are many Pilates teachers who are making his dream a reality, and yet there is still very limited information on how to maintain the integrity of the Pilates Method while adapting the exercises for young students. PILATES FOR CHILDREN is an unprecedented Pilates book, featuring safety modifications, age appropriate verbal prompts, child friendly imagery, and useful tips for teaching Pilates to elementary school age children on both the Mat and the Pilates equipment. Additionally, teachers will discover that the information provided here can be applied to students far beyond the 6-11 age range. In addition to her detailed descriptions of the exercises, author Christina Maria Gadar personalizes the material with some of the delightful conversations and interactions that have taken place while teaching her young students. And she presents many of the insightful sayings passed on to her from her mentor Romana Kryzanowska, Joseph Pilates' protege. PILATES FOR CHILDREN is a must for any certified Pilates teacher interested in expanding his or her teaching skills. With artwork created by a child artist and Pilates photography featuring children demonstrating all the exercises, PILATES FOR CHILDREN is more than a comprehensive text. It is a beautiful and inspiring look at what children are capable of doing when given the opportunity to rise to the occasion.

Introduce your children to Pilates with My First Book of Pilates and encourage them to get to know their bodies through flexibility, coordination, and play. Featuring simple, colorful step-by-step guidance, My First Book of Pilates gives kids an introduction to the popular exercise program adults have enjoyed for so many years. A dozen poses have been specially selected for their efficacy and approachability.

By learning about Pilates, kids can gain physical benefits such as better posture and improved strength and flexibility. But they can also gain a better awareness of their body, as well as develop a more relaxed state of mind by learning about this mindful practice.

Who said Pilates is not for dogs? Hilariously funny, Pilates For Dogs is a dog's eye view of today's most popular fitness regime. Put this book down in front of your pooch and watch him/her perform the Leg Pull, the Can Can, the Side Kick, and Corkscrew into a Rolling Jackknife. In no time at all, you will be guaranteed a leaner, healthier, and fitter dog. Kath Walker has set out all the basic principles of Pilates and has applied and adapted them for dogs. She covers breathing, posture, spinal alignment, and twenty health-giving exercises. Even exercies on the ball are given for balance and extra flexibility (but not for chasing!).
Benefits you can expect from following the routines and exercises laid out in this book Super strength and CONDITIONING (not to mention WEIGHT LOSS) – in an all in one package! No more need for long, drawn out workouts. Most of these workouts won’t take longer than 10 minutes at most if you do things right (the workout part of it - - you may be panting for a long, long time during and after the workouts though! Hehe). A core of STEEL. Quite literally. If you thought my other exercises gave you a core of steel, well, you were right (especially those in Corrugated Core) but this book takes CORE training to a whole new level. You’ll have animal like CORE strength. Quite literally, my friend. Ever seen a gorilla with a paunch or tiger with flab hanging off it? I didn’t think so! Neither have I, and the way these animals MOVE in daily life is one reason! And if you don’t think core strength is important, think AGAIN. As Herschel Walker famously said, get the core ready, and you can handle ANYTHING! GRIP strength from Cain, and then some. Believe me, my fingers almost fall off when doing some of these exercises, and I’ve been doing ‘em a while. I’m the Gorilla Grip And still . . . ! The grip is truly the LITMUS test of REAL strength my friend, either for a man or a woman, and you’ll develop ape like crushing grip strength with the exercise mentioned there in (not to mention fingers of STEEL and strong, pliable wrists to boot). Shoulder, neck and back pain will disappear in a trice as you do these exercises. Your legs will become pillars of steel and your STAMINA will shoot through the roof as well. FAT will fly off your frame so fast your friends and family will wonder what is going on. Believe me, I sweat for HOURS after these workouts. I’m sitting in an air conditioned room right now tying this, and I just got done taking a shower. It’s MORE THAN AN hour after my workout, and the sweat is still trickling off me! In fact, I should say you’ll experience ULTRA RAPID FAT LOSS once you get on the stick with these workouts my friend. I mean ultra rapid. Don’t be surprised if you lose more than a few inches within the first couple of weeks of getting on these workouts! You’ll feel much better after these workouts. In fact, you’ll have a sparkle to your face and a new found SPRING in your stride once you start getting good at these. You’ll experience increased productivity in all areas. Work, life, and . . . I have to say this here, the bedroom as well! And YES. If you work the core heavily, guess what areas of the body get worked the most, and what benefits accrue? Right. You got it! You’ll build upper arm, shoulder and chest muscle like never before. Your entire back will start to get that V shape to it. And remember, we ain’t doing a single pull-up in this course! Your neck and traps will grow larger and more muscular in size. In fact, neck pain will be a thing of the past, as will lower back pain. Think boa constrictor like muscles all over your lower back! Your tendons, ligaments and connecting musculature will ALL increase in sheer strength once you get on these routines. It’s well known that most injuries occur due to weak ligaments and connective tissues, and these workouts will resolve the above once and for all. Your performance on the SPORTING arena will increase tremendously. If you’re a martial artist, wrestler, boxer or other sort of physical enthusiast, guess what - - the benefits from these workouts will not just carry over, but will ENHANCE your performance in those activities! Well, my friend, I've said my bit. Now, it's up to YOU. It's up to YOU decide whether or not you want to "remain on the fence", or take the FIRST and most TANGIBLE step to turning into the real man (or woman) you were always MEANT TO BE. The choice is yours, my friend. If I were your brother, I know what I'd tell you. Order NOW, and start to change your life for the better - instantly! Rahul Mookerjee
