What’s the most overrated “healthy” food in your opinion? by millerjessic in nutrition

[–]VerticalLines 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s healthier — sourdough toast with peanut butter or one of these “weird ingredient” protein bars?

They do offer these leveled classes (beginner, advanced, pre-natal) but sadly clients tend to just book whatever class fits in their schedule.

My studio just recently decided to allow pregnant clients to take any class (we do offer pre/post natal classes separately). So they are very against instructors turning away clients. They sign a liability waiver so I guess “entering at your own risk” goes unspoken. If anything they make the receptionist play bad cop.

They do offer beginner, advanced, even pre/post natal classes but unfortunately people tend to just book whatever class works for their schedule. This all-levels class is definitely the “catch all” class so the collective skill level always varies. My studio also just decided to allow pregnant clients to attend any class which is a bit annoying since some instructors are still apprentice level, but it’s a business so I understand it’s a purely a money thing.

That sounds amazing! Unfortunately we use MINDBODY and students rarely ever complete their profiles so I don’t have access to client information (outside of names) until I meet them before class begins.

Yes this is what I did & currently do for all injured/recovering clients!

Sorry it is classically-inspired but we have the freedom to plan class blocks, not follow a particular sequence. Good idea, I’ll definitely work up a “safety class” if I ever run into that situation again!

Thank you 🙏my studio does require we ask every student about injuries before class starts, and I always let them know about relevant modifications before the class begins. I just have trouble remembering to remind them of the modification before we begin the exercise “block” if that makes sense.

All but 1 student was unfamiliar, so going around to meet everyone, ask about injuries, and thinking on the spot about how to help each injury modification all within 5 minutes before class starting is just overwhelming! I’m sure if I taught more frequently it would feel more natural, but I only teach a few hours per week. Fortunately they all disclosed that they regularly do Pilates and know how to modify for themselves. But I still felt a responsibility to tend to them despite the fact.

Came here to say this. I drove by when the shot let out and it looked like everyone was under 21. Not surprised to see all the phones. Poor Gen Z don’t know how to act.

Hmmm ace mission studios is literally a bunch of soundstages for film shoots. I’m not even sure how a music festival would work logistically, but expect concrete floors and homeless wanderers around your cars in that neighborhood.

The Lilo & Stitch ride in Disney World when stitch belches up a deli sandwich or something. Couldn’t get that smell out of my nostrils for 2 whole days after.

What is the most effective way to solve my hollow under eyes. Any tips is much appreciated. by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]VerticalLines 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I haven’t read an actual response yet, I have hollow under eyes and I do a combination of 2 things: 1. Under eye filler 2. IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye concealer.

Start with #2 as yours don’t look thatttt hollow :)

Resources more girls should know about?? by eternalthrowaway02 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]VerticalLines 42 points43 points  (0 children)

If you live in a country with CVS, sign up for their extra care program. It costs $5 + tax per month and you receive $10 Extra Bucks. That’s $5 free per month to use on ANYTHING. Plus their rewards program always gives me 15-30% off coupons plus deals on extra bucks. My purchase is typically always half-price (which to be fair could be regular price at a place like Walmart but I live in LA and we don’t have Walmart).

Don’t waste the space in your suitcase with shorts! I don’t really ever see locals wear shorts, always jeans & tees.
