Living History

Step back in time with attorney, author, and historian John Steel, who studied with Joseph Pilates and later became the business manager for Joe and Clara during the 1960s. Listen as he shares stories of his first encounter with Joe and Clara, what it was truly like to take a lesson from Joe, and much more.
Then, watch Pilates pioneers Alan Herdman, Julian Littleford, and Troy McCarty in a lively and informative discussion about their careers, the evolution of Pilates, and their personal journeys.
This session was recorded at Pilates on Tour Chicago in 2012 and is moderated by Marcia Polas.
