The Pilates Animals Workout: Exercise That Helps You Feel as Fit as an Animal

Joe Pilates began observing the natural movement of animals from a very young age, and his Method of body-mind-spirit development was greatly influenced by those observations. Christina Maria Gadar has combined her passion for Joe's Method with her love of children and animals to create the Pilates Animals Workout®, or P.A.W. for short. The Pilates Animals Workout® presents Joe's original work in a creative way that captures the imagination of children. Joe hoped that his Method would be part of the lives of young children, and the Pilates Animals Workout® is one way to make his vision a reality. Pilates is both physical and mental conditioning, and with this book, parents and children can work together to sharpen those skills. With "The Pilates Animals Workout" as their guide, parents can help their children learn to move like animals. And children can help their parents rediscover how much fun it is to use their imagination. It's never too early, or too late, to feel as fit as an animal!
