" This book is important for the existence and survival of Joseph Pilates intention in the world." --Lara Kolesar, Master Pilates Teacher "It is minds like Calderone's mind that will help speed up the day, where a critical mass will embrace a peaceful and balanced state between body, mind, and spirit hastening the shift in our world's paradigm from one of anger to one of love." --Brent D. Anderson, P.T., Ph.D., OCS, President and Co-founder of Polestar Pilates The Pilates Path to Health: Body, Mind, and Spirit offers a 21st century interpretation of how signicant it is for individuals to regain a reasonable balance and a zest for living! Daily, our news and media position us with a global view of life on Earth from the edge of a cliff. It seems that every category of our lives is changing at breakneck speed. How do we prepare ourselves to meet these challenges edging toward us? Gary Calderone's life is a powerful testament to the transformational power of Pilates. Pilates changes lives. It did his, as it has for so many others. With Pilates as his beacon, Gary brought himself back from the brink of debilitating illness. In this timely and richly informative book, Gary shares his inspiring road to recovery, as he traces the century-long journey that has seen Pilates emerge worldwide as one of the most impactful modalities for health, fitness, and healing the planet. Wendy LeBlanc-Arbuckle, the Foreword Author of the book, adds: "For Joseph Pilates, movement was a metaphor for life. His exercises always 'lived' for him in a much larger vision...that we discover our own inner wisdom, our ability to self-heal and reconnect with the vital forces that constitute our true nature, he was passionate that we come to know that we can live our natural birthright, a life filled with 'spontaneous pleasure and zest.' Joseph Pilates was clearly ahead of his time." "Because there is so much trendy hype about Pilates it is imperative that the real value of this work be spoken about loudly and creatively as Gary has done in his book. Pilates is transformational." --Rachel Taylor Segel with Amy Taylor Alpers, Co-founder and Co-owner, The Pilates Center Boulder, Colorado "Anyone who has had the opportunity to read this work will find themselves eagerly awaiting their next Pilates session. I myself feel more 'anchored into my bones, the earth, and my life' just having read the manuscript." --Zoe Stein Pierce, Director, Pilates at Dancescape Studio, The Premier Pilates Studio of Fort Worth, Texas "Gary asks the right questions . . . he illuminates the truth about how choices for our inner health are mirrored in the manifestation of our outer experience, thereby strengthening global consciousness. Truly inspiring!" --Clare Dunphy, Peak Pilates Master Trainer, Director, Progressive Bodyworks, Inc.

Safe Techniques to Reduce Pain, Build Strength, and Speed Recovery Studies suggest that proactive strengthening and flexibility-recovery exercises can speed healing after spine surgery. Whether you're preparing for or recovering from spinal surgery, recuperating from a back injury, or just dealing with a back that has 'issues,' this book offers an effective program to help you manage pain and regain strength and mobility. These exercises modify traditional Pilates routines to accommodate partially immobilized spines, making this routine safe and effective therapy for your fragile back. The exercises are designed to not compromise a spinal fusion. Instead, they will do what Pilates exercises do best-stretch, strengthen, and tone the trunk with precise positioning and movement, while avoiding potentially dangerous repetition and overexertion. Pilates for Fragile Backs is an excellent program for people who have had spinal fusion. The simple but effective Pilates-based exercises will help tremendously in reducing pain and restoring mobility. -Vijay Vad, MD, assistant professor of rehabilitation medicine at the Weill Medical College of Cornell University and author of Back Rx and Arthritis Rx …Adhering to a program of Pilates, as described in Pilates for Fragile Backs, under the guidance of a certified instructor can be a most useful means to improve back function and relieve pain. Clearly, this is a valuable therapeutic modality that is underutilized in today's current pain management programs associated with spinal disorders. -Charles Birbara, MD, chief of rheumatology at Worcester City Hospital in Worcester, MA In my practice, I constantly emphasize the importance of proper spinal alignment, good posture and a strong mid-section. Pilates for Fragile Backs highlights these points in an easy-to-follow exercise program for patients suffering with chronic back pain. I have recommended this program to many of my patients, and they are thrilled with the results. -Anthony S. Rainka, DC, South County Chiropractic, Sutton, MA As a physical therapist, I have been able to utilize the exercises in Pilates for Fragile Backs with my clients. They have shown a reduction in pain, an improvement in posture and balance, increased strength, and healthier muscle tone. Best of all, the program does wonders for their self-esteem. -Pam Craig-Stewart, PT, director of rehabilitation at Christopher House in Worcester, MA This book is a much needed labor of love that offers clear and helpful advice for anyone who has ever lived with chronic back pain. The spine problems addressed in this book are very challenging ones for doctors and therapists alike, and the authors use their first hand experience with spinal trauma to break new ground for exercise therapy. A specifically modified Pilates program indeed offers the possibility of comfort and relief for a largely under-served group in our society. -Ellen Kiley, RYT, therapeutic yoga practitioner specializing in scoliosis and spinal fusion I underwent an anterior/posterior fusion (L4-S1) over a year ago due to degenerative disk disease with annular tears. Since then, Pilates has done wonders for me. I started pursuing basic lumbar stabilization mat work a couple of months following surgery. I had urged my neurosurgeon to allow me to begin sooner than usual because I'd had a big increase in pain. My physical therapist felt it had to do with the stiffness that begins to set in as the weeks go by without stretching and exercising. I had every confidence that Pilates would improve my situation and I swear by it! I've been back to work full-time. I am also walking about four miles, three days a week! I'm sure Pilates for Fragile Backs will be a major help to many others. -Diana Stahl, Cincinnati, OH
