If you don't know John Garey, you should. John is a pioneer of Pilates in the digital age. Today, due to the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us are forced to move our teaching to a virtual platform. John has done that, and quite successfully I might add. The difference is that he has been doing this for YEARS! Well before any of the rest of the Pilates community even gave it a thought. Join me as I talk to John about how to successfully teach via a virtual platform and how to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to Pilates.  You can find John on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/jgpilates or at https://www.johngareytv.com/ Be sure to listen to the end to recieve your discount from John!
