Greetings from sunny Los Angeles! I just trained a crew of new Pilates for Buff Bones® instructors in Santa Barbara who attended from across southern California, and one who even flew in from Australia! I was fortunate to also film more classes at Pilates Anytime while there, so be on the lookout for the new videos. I'm heading to Orange County tomorrow to speak at ABC Pilates' lecture series and then travelling to Rancho La Puerta in Mexico for my annual guest presenting week! While I'm touring the west coast, I wanted to update you on upcoming events and recent press. Stay tuned for next month's announcement of an exciting presentation in a land far away — and far down under!!
Meanwhile, watch this new clip of my colleague Leah Stewart and me chatting it up about women's health!

Read what an instructor at last weekend's training had to say:
"Pilates for Buff Bones® Instructor Training is a no-brainer for Pilates teachers who encounter clients with low bone mass or osteoporosis. But it is so much more. In addition to her expertise on the subject of bone health, Rebekah Rotstein offers a masterful presentation of how to teach movement, from the art of cueing individual exercises to the science of constructing a logically sequenced program. For any fitness professional looking to better serve any client, Pilates for Buff Bones® Instructor Training is well worth the investment!"

Gain clarity on the misunderstood topic of osteoporosis from a scientific and holistic view, and learn how the medications and dietary considerations come into play. Discover how to build and preserve bone mass, learn exercises to prevent fractures along with ways to empower your clients, using mat, apparatus and props. Ensure that you're helping and not hurting your clients while you enhance your functional anatomy knowledge in a fun and creative setting. This workshop can serve as the pre-requisite for the Pilates for Buff Bones® training and licensing.
