March is just a few days away, and Janae Luxe Pilates is going to participate in March MATness! What is March MATness, you ask? Each day in the month of March we are going to try to post a picture doing one exercise from the list of exercises in the Classical Mat Pilates series. It's a social media project started by Benjamin Degenhardt the owner of 360 Pilates. Using the power of hashtags we will be showing our love of Pilates to the world!
You can be an active observer AND/OR participant in this event! Here's what we will be doing:
Pick an exercise from the list below. You can pick as many exercises as you like, I am going to try to do all 34. Last year I think I managed about 5, so this will actually be a challenge for me. Take a picture of yourself doing the exercise and add the hashtag: #marchmatness2016 or #mm2016 or simply #marchmatness. Each day should correspond with the number in the series. Then share with your friends on social media! It's going to be a global Pilates party that you can be a part of. If you workout with me at Janae Luxe Studio, I would not mind if you added the hashtag #JanaeLuxeStudio, so that I can see your work also. But that's very optional for this particular party.

If you have any questions about any of these exercises, please feel free to contact me, either on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, smoke signal....(geez, there are so many ways to reach each other nowadays!)
If you just want to observe, that's super cool too. There will undoubtedly be some really cool photos of Pilates to check out! I cannot guarantee that my photos will be awesome, but I can assure that I will have FUN!
Also during March we will be DOING all of these exercises to celebrate, Wednesday nights at 6:15pm! Sign up online here to join this event!
