I started this episode wanting to discuss Pilates history, but ended up talking more about Joe as a teacher, the power and shortcomings of lineages in Pilates and yoga, and how Pilates has gotten better as it has evolved.\\xa0

Joe's obituary was also in the NY Times, but I could only find an image of it on Pinterest....He was listed as a body builder, and "a white-maned lion of a man, with steel-blue eyes and mahogany skin, Mr Pilates kept as limber in his 80s as a teenager." *https://bit.ly/JoeObit*\\xa0

There is a biography of Joseph Pilates that just came out, but it's only in German. I can't wait for the English translation!\\xa0
