"At age 56, I left a thirty-year career in publishing to pursue a longtime dream of becoming a certified Pilates instructor… I went straight to… Gina Papalia and Tricia O’Donnell of The Pilates Standard… Gina and Tricia encouraged me through every patch of doubt… The program was intelligent, thorough, and joyfully communal, and I now possess the tools and nuanced understanding of the body that enable me to teach with confidence." – Debra G.
