✨ Please join us in celebrating Brenda Niedermaier on reaching an incredible milestone — successfully completing her practical examination and all required hours for the Second Wind® Pilates Plus® Cadillac | Tower Certification.

This certification was proudly hosted at Pure Pilates and directed and facilitated by Laura Turnbull, Owner and Master Instructor.

Over the past year, Brenda has demonstrated dedication, consistency, and a genuine commitment to deepening her knowledge of the Pilates method. This achievement is a reflection of her hard work, perseverance, and passion for helping others move and feel their best.

It was an absolute privilege to facilitate and evaluate Brenda’s practical examination and to witness her growth throughout this journey.

Brenda, I hope you take a moment to recognize all that you have accomplished. This milestone is well deserved, and we are proud to celebrate your success. ✨

Ottawa Marathon Update - Pilates Strong

When I look at this picture it makes me laugh because there I am at the Ottawa Marathon just skipping along outside Rideau Hall… pink freezie in hand… looking like I’ve got life completely figured out (like always) at KM 22 😂

Meanwhile, 10 minutes earlier I was absolutely drenched from the pouring rain not feeling confident at all. Then out of nowhere, a stranger handed me a pink freezie and somehow the entire energy of the race changed for me. I don’t even eat freezies. 💖

It’s amazing what one small gesture can do when you’re struggling — in a marathon or in life.

Ottawa became my strongest race to date - a true reflection of consistency, smart fueling, and the deep strength Pilates has brought to this journey — not just physically, but mentally.

One step closer to those final two Abbott World Marathon Majors stars!

Thank you to my coach and of course ❤️
