Fitness Switchup: Boot Camp Instead of Pilates
Spring is a time of change, and I think it is a perfect time to switch up your fitness routine. If you're starting to dread your Pilates mat class, might I suggest experimenting with a boot camp of some sort?

Class Act: Boot Camps
It is always interesting to watch fitness trends - remember the high-impact aerobics craze of the 80's? Well, boot camps are all the rage these days and I must say I think they are a great product of the trickle down theory and reappropriation of something from the industrial-military complex.
There are many variations out there on the boot camp theme.

Class Act: Pilates Boot Camp
Most people think of Pilates as a mind/body exercise, and they think Pilates is a slow, nit-picky form of exercise. Now that boot camps and circuit training are big trends in the fitness world, Pilates studios and gyms are creating boot camps of their own. I was lucky enough to participate in a Pilates-style boot camp yesterday morning sponsored by Balanced Body at the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association convention happening here in SF this week.
Boot Camp For Veterans Day
