Pilates like a rock star.
My ears are always open to different teaching styles. So while I was sitting and strumming last night at my guitar lesson, I was reminded of what it is like for brand new students to be doing something brand new, in front of new people, in a new environment. Do they feel successful? Do they want to come back? I watched two new young boys in front of me. I was wondering how Todd would keep the class going and still make these two guys feel successful. It was alot of information for even this 35 year old brain for sure! Music theory, new patterns, dreaded bar chords... Did they get it all last night? Heck no! But that's not the point. We will come back for more repetitious finger torture. So let your clients move and feel successful without the pressure of perfection. It may not "sound" pretty at first, but they will feel like rock stars I assure you. After all, Pilates has that affect on people. If your students keep coming back, they WILL begin to make beautiful music.
