I would love to hear how the Fletcher Teasers are proceeding around the country and around the world. Please tell the good, the bad, and the ugly. What has worked for you and what hasn't? What you would recommend and why?
Also, I wanted to throw this idea out there... If you do not already have something planned for Pilates Day on Saturday May 2nd, why not teach a Teaser? Pilates Day is meant to be a grassroots event. What better time to share Ron's root with others?
Regarding Pilates Day, I am excited to say that my studio is collaborting with two other studios to offer an event called "Pilates in the Park". I like to take classes at other studios and invite the owners to events we are hosting here. That approach led to the idea of creating a Pilates Day event together. In case you want to know more, below you will find the text from our promotion.
