All Things Pilates with Darien Gold
Darien Gold, producer, writer, editor and host of All Things Pilates, brings her style and interviewing skills she developed in 2017 as a radio show host. Since then, Darien’s intention continues to light the way and bring greater exposure of the Contrology System and listeners rely on her and her guests for additional insights into the Pilates community. The Pilates Method is considered a global phenomenon and it has profoundly changed both the wellness and fitness conversations and through insightful interviews and expert discussions, Darien and her guests explore the fascinating history and evolution of Contrology.
Though we can’t know exactly what Joseph Pilates was thinking or feeling towards the end of his life, we do know he wanted the entire world to practice Contrology and so, as we discuss the man and the method, we learn more about how his genius continues to influence and inspire. Darien’s Podcast is a library filled with episodes that are helping to preserve valuable and historical information and a precious resource for decades to come.

Joan Blum ~ Perfection and Performance
Perfection in life is a double edged sword. Perfection can lead to excellence and mastery, but it can also lead to obsession and anxiety. In the Pilates community, there is not only a hint of perfectionism but an element of performing, as if on a stage in front of an audience. Joan Blum, our guest, is a 25-year Pilates veteran and former professional dancer. I’ve asked Joan to share her thoughts about the need to be perfect and the need to perform which sadly is often encouraged in different sectors of the Pilates industry. This episode touches on First Generation Pilates teacher, Jay Grimes who recently passed away and who contributed so much in helping to maintain the Contrology system.
