Is he a decendant of Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor of Judea?? Pardon me for being a blur sotong. What does this guy instruct?

[tan_r]

.... What does this guy instruct?

Pilates lah. What else?

[mallanhead]

I think they have pilates classes in Fitness first. I used to join a class in Pantai Medical Centre. It cost me RM30.00 a class. But not sure whether the instructor can offer any service to you. But sorrylah I cant remember her name. But she is mat salleh married to a malay guy.

I wish I can join a class again. But after my maid run away, I have no one to look after my two little toddlers at home.
Why are you asking? Are you planning to open pilates classes soon. Inform me. Might be interested to join.

Pilates... prounouced as Pi-La-Tess

A form of execises developed in the 1920s... by Joseph H. Pilates. Mari Windsor popularised it in the 1990s starting in Los Angeles... now reknown all over the world.

Delivers a long, lean, sculpted look
Builds a stronger, supple, healthier body
Improves posture, circulation, energy, stamina

There is a certified Yoga and Pilates centre in Plaza Damas... SriHartamas. Can't remember the name of the HealthSpa but it is in the middle pedestrian walk of Plaza Damas...on the first floor.

So am I. Now this sotong is very sharp.

they said you can gain height a few cm if you practice pilates religiously. It is actually making you stand and sit correctly. Beside that it is good for someone with a back problem. That is why I join the one in Pantai. The instructor is also the physio there.

Thanks for the info. Will look at the suggested places.

hi echua, do you own a pilates mat as well?
I know Nike has a pilates cum yoga mat, RM119, wondering whether there is any cheaper option.

Echua..I know a pilates instructor who lives in Kelana Jaya. PM me if you want her contact details.
