Welcome to the Peaceful Power Podcast today I chat with Patrea Aeschliman and go into details about pilates and how it can change your approach to your health.

Introduction

Patrea and I were introduced to each other by an online friend whose hooked me up with a few of my past guests. Patrea and I chat about pilates and how coming from a unfit background can help shape you into the person you are today. Just because your family was not into health and wellness does not mean you need to go down that same path.

Background on Patrea

Patrea Aeschliman has been a fitness trainer for over 25 years.  She has a degree in Exercise Science and Fitness from Ball State University and is a comprehensively trained Power Pilates instructor.  In addition, she is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Patrea has a true passion for Pilates.  Since she first gave Pilates a try over 12 years ago, she has been sold on the Pilates method! It even helped her overcome injuries from 13 years of high-level gymnastics.  It has been exciting to see her clients achieve remarkable results after they had been trying many other forms of exercise with no success.  Patrea promises to deliver fun, exhilarating workouts both in class and private sessions! She owns 15 to Fit, a Pilates and conditioning studio in Charlotte, NC and is the star of several Pilates videos including her own Pre and Post Natal workouts. www.15tofit.com
