Inhale, Exhale, Inspire

Calgary (Jan.23.07)

We don't mind the big gyms with the buffed-up eye candy. And, we confess, we've been known to visit just for this scenery. After all, a girl needs the right motivation to work out her mind, body and soul.

Lately, we've found inspiration of a different sort at the newly renovated studios of Pilates North. We've been rushing to Mat Class ($120 per ten-class package) so we can tune into our body and out of our hectic day. The soothing décor of warm tan walls accented with shots of cranberry puts us at ease as soon as we arrive. And the down-to-earth instructors (and glimpses of the abstract art) motivate us to reach further with each exhalation.

We're even contemplating signing up for new-to-the-studio, semi-private sessions ($150 per five-session package), with access to specialty apparatuses like the reformer, cadillac and chair. (The extra resistance from the spring-loaded equipment is bound to give us a boost.)

We just know (and with a hint of hope), we'll turn into eye candy for others.
