What to know about the Pilates breath and why we cue it.

It seems like such a simple concept doesn’t it? We have to breathe to stay alive, so what more can there possibly be to say on the subject?

Well, quite a lot actually! The way you breathe during a Pilates session can add a whole new element to what you need to think about and focus on.

If you’ve been to a Pilates class before then I’m sure you will have heard the instructor cueing you as to when to breathe in and when to breathe out. Now the question is, do you listen to the cue and follow it or does it just end up confusing you and leading to you not breathing at all?!

It is important to breathe well for our movement but at the end of the day, do people know why they are being told to breathe in a certain way?

Procrastination!

Procrastination!! Is this something that we are all guilty of to some extent? Possibly the mother of all evils when it comes to trying to organise what you have to do and actually get down to doing it!

Now I’m not one to procrastinate a great deal as I like to get things done as soon as I can, as I feel that there is so much I need to do and never enough time! My friends and family will undoubtedly vouch for the fact that I find it impossible to sit still and I am constantly looking for more ways to fill my time.
