From Stacy Sims
It is such an abundant time for me it is a bit
overwhelming. And I find myself getting into that defeating head space, the
one that tells me "you are so busy you don't really have time to exercise and
eat right and return your emails." Some days it feels like I should have
earned up enough Good Living Frequent Flyer Miles to earn a free trip or two.
But I know it doesn't really work that way. I know that in order to feel this
good and to have such amazing things happen to me, I need to stay in my
body and to treat it well.
Because the really amazing part comes not in what you
get back, but what you are able to give. The more that lands on my plate, the
more there is to give back to the community. So on the days when I feel really
self-centered, I just remember that if I slack off, I won't have as much to
give. And usually that gets me going again. When that doesn't work, I call my
mom and we go work out together. As much as I know about how important my
Pilates and yoga classes are to me, I know I sometimes need help
getting there and staying there.
So call a friend and come see us at the studio. And if
you need a little more incentive, check out our new Unlimited Pilates and Yoga
rate (see below).
And please join me next week at one of my local book
signings for Swimming Naked in paperback at Joseph Beth at 7 pm on
Wednesday, March 9th and at Barnes and Noble in West Chester, also at 7 pm on
Friday, March 11th. Also, check out Carol Williams' story about how
Pilates changed my life on WCPO, Channel 9 News, Monday, February 28th at 5
pm. And listen to Thomas White and me on the Living on Purpose radio show
Sundays at 7 pm on 1530 WCKY.
See what I mean about abundance?!? And there is
even more. Read on ...

Unlimited Pilates and
Yoga!
That's right. Now you can budget for unlimited Pilates
and yoga classes at Pendleton Pilates. Starting Friday, March 11th, you can
buy an Unlimited Pilates and Yoga Package. Here's the way it will work. You
can sign up for either a six-month (24 week) or year-long (48 week) package.
If you buy a six month package, we will deduct $185 per month from your
checking account. If you sign up for a year package, we will deduct $160 a
month. And then you can take as many Pilates Reformer classes, mat
classes and yoga classes as you would like at Pendleton Pilates.
So at the
$185 rate, if you come 12 times a month it is about $15.40 a class.
And if you come 15 times a month it is $12.33 a class. If you come in 10
times a month it works out to about $18.50 a session, which is in
keeping with the current rates for group Reformer classes. If you sign up
for a year, your per session rate becomes even more
affordable.
If you are interested in signing up for the Unlimited Program, please let
Shannon know at 513-478-3232 or at
info@pendletonpilates.com
and we will work with you to determine when you want to start in this
new program.
Thanks for Taking the First
Step
We are dropping off a huge load of supplies
and a cash donation to First Step Home (www.firststephome.org) this week. First
Step Home is a non-profit, long-term residential treatment for women
recovering from drug and alcohol addiction. The residence also houses the
women's children during their recovery so they can build healthy lives and new
parenting skills with their family intact.
And thanks to those of you who started with us in
January as well as those who brought in personal items, we are making a
difference in our community. Thanks too to those of you who donated who aren't
clients. We appreciate that you went out of your way to help out.

Refer A Client, Get A
Class
So many of our
clients are coming to us because of your recommendation. Please make sure to
tell us if you have referred someone to our studio and we will give you a free
class or a Pendleton Pilates t-shirt!
And Don't Forget ...
We've got more Reformer and Mat classes than ever, plus
Yoga with Donna Covrett, Thai Yoga and Traditional Massage, Pilates for
Golfers, our world-famous Triple XXX class, Teacher Training, workshops and
more.
Also, Nancy Wilman has her new "Creative Flow" Yoga downtown on Thursday
mornings at 10:00 am. She invites you to come check it out with your
first session free!
If you haven't visited us in awhile, make sure to stop
by and find out what keeps us the busiest Pilates studio in the
region.
We Are
Getting Busy!
Please make sure to let
us know 24 hours in advance if you need to cancel a session with us. Our
classes are filling up and those Reformer spots are becoming an increasingly
valuable commodity. And we know that you certainly don't enjoy paying for a
class that you were unable to attend.
Living on Purpose
Don't forget to listen in to 1530 WCKY on Sunday nights
at 7 pm to hear Stacy Sims, Thomas White and Lynn Rohr on Living on Purpose
talk to guests including Deepak Chopra. For further information on the radio
program and the Living on Purpose educational programs, visit www.livingonpurpose.us.
Our Talented and Busy
Teachers
It's hard to believe that our teachers do more than
teach great Pilates, but they are as active and talented as they are dedicated
Pilates teachers. Mark your calendar to see Melissa (aka "Liz") Kaiser in
Chicago on April 28-30 at 8:00 pm, May 1 at 2:00pm and then May
4-7 at 8:00 pm. We'll remind you closer to the big event so Pendleton Pilates
can be well represented in the audience to cheer on Melissa.
And What About You?
How is it going? Any stories you want to share about
Pilates? Any causes you want us to support? And good news we can post at the
studios or here in the newsletters? Please let Shannon or Stacy know how we
can get the word out about your good work.
