In today's episode, we talk to Pilates Superstar, Movement Educator and Health Coach Jenna Zaffino. We cover Jenna's Pilates education and friendship with Master Teacher Ron Fletcher and why the guru model of learning Pilates is no longer serving our community. Jenna shares her perspective on finding your voice as an instructor, transitioning to online teaching, and describes why she is such an enthusiastic proponent of self-attendance.
