I’m just gonna say it. There’s barre and then there’s Hilliard. Don’t get me wrong, all barre, sculpting and pilates classes are startlingly challenging and effective.

Sure a poor craftsman blames his tools and all that jazz, but those “tools” can make a huge difference in the running world. In this case, the “tools” are socks and headphones, but tools […]
Confession: My first experience with Pilates was a $19.99 online DVD series from Windsor Pilates. I ordered it one night in college when I was studying (and eating pizza) and it seemed like just what I needed. For the next 2 years, my Pilates routine consisted of 20-minute exercises on my dorm floor. The craziest thing […]
