November strikes again! But before we begin
prepping for the holidays, we wanted to look back on this crazy-busy past month
and all of our “Get Outside” moments. This October was extra eventful for Pilates
Platinum trainers, owner Heather Dorak, and Pilates Platinum members & friends.
Filled with charity events, recipe sharing, fall hiking, community events and
free workout classes, and the annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5k
Walk—October was one for the books!
We don’t always get to cover everything going on in the
Pilates Platinum world here on the blog, so instead we’ve put together a recap
to share the month’s highlights for anyone who might have missed out on some of
the fun!
As always, we encourage you to spend time Outside each month
and share your Get Outside moments online with @PilatesPlatinum by
hashtagging #PilatesPlatinum and #GetOutside.
Scroll below to catch a glimpse of what
went on in October,
& hopefully this November will bring
just as much fun!
Pilates Platinum’s Holiday Special is live!
10 Classes for $150.00. Unlimited quantities may be bought, now through
November 15th. Head over to www.pilatesplatinum.com and take
advantage of this deal (for yourself or as a gift!) before it ends mid-month.
Officially, Breast Cancer Awareness Month might have
ended, but that doesn’t mean that fighting for the cause has also ended!
Pilates Platinum teamed up with @fabfitfun
this month because this cause is near and dear to our hearts. Breast Cancer
affects 1in 8 women. Here’s a video recap on the Pilates Platinum Instagram page feature a clip from
fabfitfun’s pop-up breast exam shop held at the @melrosetradingpost on Sunday. Fabfitfun is doing an amazing job reminding
us all that every month is breast cancer awareness month!

Speaking of
Breast Cancer Awareness, we had such an amazing turnout at the annual Making
Strides Against Breast Cancer 5k walk in Santa Monica this month! Check out some of the photos
(and professional stretching moves!) below and on the Pilates Platinum Instagram page. We hope you will join us, and
Making Strides, again next year for this important cause.
Another
important cause: early October, Pilates Platinum teamed up with Athleta and Run
for Her to host a Strengthen, Lengthen & Tone class at The Park at The
Grove. The Run for Her event, and the killer workout, were both a success and helped raise awareness
in fighting Ovarian Cancer. Thanks to Pilates Platinum Instructors Brian Evans (@btoned) and Celine Wallace
(@celine_wallace) for your hard work in making us work hard instead of shop at
The Grove (@thegrovela)!
On a lighter
note, BurnThis fitness ambassador Heather Dorak shared her Top 10 Favorite
Healthy Snacks in her Cupboard on the BurnThis blog. Check it out here to learn
why nuts, spices, coffee and raw honey are foods you should keep in stock!
Did you take
advantage of Marie Claire Magazine’s #PeakWeek with BurnThis? We sure did! Pilates
Platinum, along with other top studios in LA and NY, offered free community
classes during this event and had a blast making our sweat social. Special
thanks to everyone who took a Pilates Platinum class and joined in on the
#MCPeakWeek fun! Follow @BurnThisDotCom and @PilatesPlatinum to be in-the-know about future events like this.
We can’t
leave out all the fun our instructors had over Halloween! Check out west side
instructor Lindsay (@lindzwhit)
sporting an appropriate outfit for both teaching class and celebrating the holiday. Instructor Ricky (@RickyRebel) dressed up too,
but his look was for his 2-set concert on the main stage at the @WehoCarnival
West Hollywood Halloween Carnival! And did you spot our Non-GMO Candy post? Take a look at the pilatesplatinum.blogspot post for an
easy-to-follow list of PP Approved sweets.
And to round
up the October recap, we’re proud to have made the cut on another list of LA’s
best studios! We’ve
shared how much we love The Tig before, and this past month, @_thetig shared how
much they love Pilates Platinum! Check out The Tig's Healthy Living Guide to LA
where you’ll spot your favorite SPX Pilates studio (hint…it’s us!) on the
list.
