“I'm always looking at the relationship between these arches or these domes and in my eyes or my mind, I'm always connecting the domes or the arches above and below the issue that they may be presenting with." Katie Crane   In this episode of The Pilates Lounge, I delve into the fascinating topic of the arches in the body and their relationship to posture and movement. I have always found this subject intriguing, as it allows me to explore the body in unique ways and uncover underlying issues and idiosyncrasies in my clients.   Many people come to Pilates to improve their posture or strengthen their core. While these outcomes can be achieved through Pilates, it is not simply a matter of actively fixing posture or targeting core muscles. Instead, Pilates teaches the body to move well in all ranges of motion and capabilities, naturally leading to improved posture and core strength.   This episode serves as a reminder of the beauty of Pilates and its emphasis on the arches in the body. By understanding and working with these arches, we can address a wide range of issues and help clients move forward in their Pilates journey.    Join me, Katie Crane, in The Pilates Lounge as we continue to delve into the intricacies of the human body and the transformative power of Pilates   If you enjoy the episode, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share it with your friends and colleagues who might benefit from this discussion.
