Have you Taken the JP Challenge? Enter Today!

Joseph Pilates, the celebrated fitness pioneer, made some pretty intense claims about his stretching-and-resistance-based exercise system. Sure, you’ve seen the gorgeous dividends of Pilates in the bodies of stars like Madonna and Jenifer Aniston, but did you know that its founder made specific, quantifiable assertions about results?
Indeed, 66 years ago, Joseph Pilates made a potent promise about his utterly unique workout: “In 10 sessions, you will feel the difference. In 20, you will see the difference. And in 30, you'll be on your way to having a whole new body.”
Cyclelates by HBHM Studios, a boutique exercise studio is putting Pilates’s “whole new body” claim to the test with a scientifically verified 30-session challenge.
Hollywood’s Cyclelates, as the name implies, specializes in a killer hybrid group class of Reformer-based Pilates (30 minutes) and Cycling (20 minutes). Clients are in and out in about 55 minutes—a huge boon to time-pressed Angelinos. Most impressively, owner Bambi Martin has already begun noticing amazing results among her members.
“The first change I noticed was in the shoulders, abs, and general posture of all my clients. I realized I have to document these changes since so many clients are seeing such strong results,” says Martin.
Since Cyclelates is scrupulously devoted to teaching Joseph Pilates’s original principals, his quote came to mind, and Martin launched the “JP Joseph Pilates Challenge.” Martin decided to use the exercise master’s own words to inspire her clients. Thus, she created the challenge: Clients who produced the best results in 30 classes will win a free month’s membership.
The Challenge: Put Joseph Pilatesʼs quote to the test, and discover whether a “whole new body” is yours after 30 classes. Students are encouraged to attend 30 Pilates Reformer or Cyclelates sessions as quickly as possible, for faster results clients are encouraged to complete the challenge in two months.
The Prize: One month unlimited classes at Cyclelates by HBHM Studios and, naturally, a hot new body!
The Rules: Members who wish to participate must submit a “before” picture and allow a Cyclelates by HBHM Studios representative take measurements of their arms, waistline, hips, and thighs before their first class. Contestants must check in via Facebook and log each class they complete. On the 15th of every month, the studio will select a winner via an online voting tool. At the end of each competitor’s 30 classes, each participant’s class visits—as well as diet and other tips—will be on display for all members.
Monthly Winner: Each month’s champion will be selected based on a combination of their measurement results and online votes by other members. The monthly winner will be featured in our newsletter and will receive one month of unlimited classes.
Joseph Pilates was right about a lot of things, Cyclelates by HBHM Studios will find out if his most inspiring message was true; check out our results at www.myspinlates.com!

Benefits of Pilates! Book a Private Today for only $85.00!

It is no surprise either that this innovative fitness regimen created by Joseph Pilates in the 1920s has seen such enduring success and loyalty. Used and praised by the likes of the famed George Balanchine who made all of his dancers train under Jospeh Pilates, the form of exercise is now widely used by many professional athletes including hockey players and football players in order to create greater flexibility in their muscle-bound bodies.

Among the many advantages that one gains from practicing Pilates on a weekly basis are:

• greater strength and muscle tone
• more efficient respiratory, lymphatic and circulatory systems
• better posture
• a flatter stomach and trimmer waist
• improved flexibility
• less incidence of back pain
• increased joint mobility
• lower stress level

One of the biggest rewards that you will get from practicing is that you will be able to go about your daily business with less discomfort. You will be able to sit and stand for longer periods of time and you will have less pain from chronic ailments such as arthritis and back problems. You will also feel more in control mentally from a greater ability to handle stressful situations.

Pilates offers those who practice it on a regular basis so many superb benefits that it is not surprising that once a person tries the exercises, before long they get hooked on the feeling.

If you have never tried Pilates or are a novice looking to take your first class, then do not let yourself get intimidated by what looks like pretzel-like movements and medieval equipment best reserved for a dungeon, once you have mastered the basic moves you will see how easy and just how much fun Pilates really is.

His classes fuse core Joesph Pilates principals with faster paced moves to keep your body sweating, guessing, and wanting more! Come check out his lunch time classes we added this month.

Meet Adrian:

From an early age, Adrian was drawn to both the arts and physical fitness. Born and raised in rural South Texas, he is no stranger to hard work. Giving it his all and committed to being the best he could be, Adrian excelled in football, basketball and theatre arts. After having earned his BA in Speech Communication from the University of Texas – Pan American, he packed his bags and moved to Los Angeles, where he discovered a new love for keeping in shape and maximizing his overall health through holistic approaches. Being a tri-athlete, Adrian explored many types of exercise. Through that process he found PILATES. This form of exercise turned his life around, taking away all back pain he was experiencing, while safely toning, lengthening and sculpting his body. Through this personal transformation, he became a firm believer that this practice was the answer to maintaining a pain-free lifestyle, while brightening the soul and retaining youth! Expertly trained, Adrian has had the privilege of studying under Ivon Dahl, Master Pilates Instructor, who learned from a disciple of Joseph Pilates himself. Adrian has worked with a fair share of LA’s film and TV professionals to help them achieve optimum fitness by combining both SPIN and PILATES together. He creates a fun and motivated space in his classes that have people leaving feeling great, getting the results they want, and coming back for more!

Music We Love!

Can't say no to a great Adele Remix! Love this song as is but this extra beat makes it really fun for Cardio! Have a favorite song we should play in the studio? Please share in the comments section:)
