We have all been coping with quarantine in different ways, and we all have our things. Maybe not raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, but activities, foods, friends, and more that are helping us through these difficult times. Here’s how the staff at Pilates in Holland is coping, share some of yours in the comments!
Mandy: My 22 chickens, especially Ladybird! Gardening is one of my favorite ways to enjoy my days. Friends & family conversations daily are a real essential piece for me. I’m a community girl and my Pilates family keeps me moving and growing.

Terree: What’s getting me through is daily walks, journaling (something I’ve never done before), and moving forward with Pilates teacher training with such a supportive team.
