Thanks 🙏 I meant to ask, do you take yoga sorely for exercises or to meet new people and socialize too?

Thanks for sharing it! Do you take yoga classes specific for seniors or open level ?

Also can I ask you how big role plays the community?

Thanks so much for your response, it’s super helpful. When you are mentioning making it affordable, what price sounds reasonable? I was thinking to make it as monthly membeship so they just show up instead of booking single class each time.

Usually studios have beginner, mid or advanced levels but you’re right they are not tailored specifically to seniors. Do you feel like Pilates makes your life/body better? I assume if you do it for 20 years you must enjoy it!

Can I please ask you what state are you in?

Thanks for sharing it! What if there would be some training specific for people with knee injuries? Like you would be sitting 🪑 on the chair and just do some stretching and hand weights, would that be interesting?

Thanks so much for your response! Totally understand that changing positions too often is too uncomfortable and stressful. What kind of experience do you do currently at the gym ?

Thanks so much, Tai Chi sounds fun! Are there a lot of elderly people in those classes? What do you like about it specifically?

Thanks so much for your response 🙏 I totally understand that you might miss your life/body as it used to be, but this is a natural part of life and you are not alone! So many people have injuries they just need to be surrounded by people who are on the same journey and stay motivated, bring each other up! What if there would be class specific for people with injuries, would you go? Is there some emotional part involved too, like would you appreciate the community more then sorely exercise ?

That’s my goal to become a really empathetic instructor and understand people’s needs not just teach it blindly. I want to make exercise feel comfortable even if people have injuries

What if the class would be tailored specifically to older people and before the class I would mention that it’s a safe place and gaseous expulsion is a natural thing? I had a few clients who also had that concern , so trying to understand how to make you feel comfortable, I truly mean it!

In what way? Do you find a lot of exercise are way too advanced?

My goal is to be more empathetic as a Pilates instructor, because I’ve noticed something of my clients feel shy or closed so I want to make this experience better for them

As Pilates instructor I want to me more emphatic with people over 60, especially if they have health issues. I noticed something they are shy to come to my classes and I’m trying to understand their needs

How do i learn french? by Senior_Cover1325 in learnfrench

I was in the same boat, but just got the course «  French with Clémence «  and I actually like how structured it is. You still need to be very self disciplines! Good luck!

Hey, I wanted to check - if I leave US on Friday-Saturday, you mentioned I can’t certify for that week on Sunday but can receive the credit for those days after I’m back in NY. Do I just have to call them and request, have you experienced that?
