斯托特普拉提告诉我,练习和耐心做完美。我做过各种形式的锻炼我的整个人生,但从来没有真正坚持任何挫折的他们,因为我缺乏技能和缺乏自信。我一直以为这个人擅长锻炼或运动(如网球、游泳、高尔夫等)只是自然天赋,即。时,他们立即开始运动。因为这个信念,因为我从来没有完美的当我开始一个新的锻炼,我总是尝试几次之后便放弃锻炼。我开始做斯托特普拉提大约1.5年前。我很气馁一开始因为我不能立即做所有的动作。我非常幸运的开始我的教训斯托特普拉提教练叫Deb Preachuk训练。黛比是一个很有耐心的老师,并鼓励我进步和管理我的沮丧。Deb的指令,我继续普拉提了1.5年。1.5年,ab我有进展从几乎无法做准备,能够做一些更高级的动作。 Beyond the sense of accomplishment I have achieved from Pilates, I have learned that practice does make perfect. I stuck with Pilates despite my discouragement, and to my amazement I have seen improvements every week. I learned that it does take time and effort to move from the beginning moves to the advanced moves. I have carried this insight into other areas of my life. I recently started a new job and was able to fall back on what I learned in Pilates to help me through the job. I remembered that I felt uncoordinated and awkward when I learned new Pilates moves, but as I practiced the moves, they became natural and more refined. With the insight from Pilates, I was able to reframe how I looked at my new job and accept that I would be uncomfortable with my new responsibilities, but with practice, the new responsibilities would become natural and more refined. Pilates has taught me to accept that I am a beginner when I attempt anything new but with practice, I can become skilled. It has allowed me to try new things and accept the awkwardness and discomfort that comes with anything new. Ann C
