Pilates found me, I guess. I have a dancing background and when I started working at MinRes I wanted to stay fit and flexible, but I didn’t want to go to the gym. Pilates combines the energy of dance with the strength of working out, so I taught myself, with a little help from YouTube. I prefer to do Pilates in a private or intimate setting, so I do it by myself. It’s all about having the self-discipline to do it when no one is watching.
