Penelope says "Like mastering anything, Pilates is a real onion of a movement practice – lots of layers [and] sometimes it’ll make you want to cry!" 
If you want to explore Pilates and peel back those layers, you can join Penelope for Reformer classes at the Rundle St Studio on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
