Podcast appearances and mentions of mary bowen

In this special episode of the Pilates Lounge, host Katie Crane sits down with a remarkable guest, Mary Bowen, a 95-year-old Pilates practitioner and one of the last recognized Pilates elders. Instead of a traditional interview format, Mary requests a casual conversation, leading to an intimate and engaging exchange. Mary shares her journey into Pilates, sparked by a newspaper article in 1959 that depicted Joseph Pilates as a strong lion, which resonated with her back troubles. She became a student of Joseph and Clara Pilates, eventually becoming an instructor after a decade of dedicated practice. Despite initially pursuing an entertainment career and later psychoanalysis, Mary's passion for Pilates never waned. At the age of 40, she began her Pilates journey, eventually blending her expertise in psychoanalysis with Pilates to offer a unique service she calls "Pilates and psych." Reflecting on her early encounters learning Pilates from Joe and Clara Pilates, Mary delves into the ethos of self-discovery and personal evolution. Exploring various psychological typologies and their correlation with the mind and body, she advocates for embracing individuality and creativity within Pilates practice. Emphasizing personalized instruction and self-exploration in Pilates, Mary advocates for each individual to forge their distinct path in the discipline, with creativity as the cornerstone. She delves into the diverse psychological typologies and their intersection with Pilates, urging instructors to observe and empower their clients to discover their unique journey. Mary envisions a future for Pilates where individuals continue to embark on self-discovery and growth, steering clear of a one-size-fits-all approach. Key Points of the Episode: Working from home during the pandemic allowed Mary to continue teaching and connecting with her clients. Mary combines her expertise in Pilates and psychology to provide a holistic approach to her teaching. Dreams are a valuable tool for self-discovery and learning from the unconscious. Each individual has their own unique typology and should embrace their creativity in their Pilates practice. Individualized teaching and self-discovery are essential in Pilates. Creativity is key in developing a unique approach to the practice. Observation and listening are important skills for teachers to help clients find their own way. The typographies of the psyche (thinking, feeling, sensing, intuiting) play a role in how individuals approach Pilates. The future of Pilates lies in the exploration and development of each individual's unique path. Join us in embracing a holistic approach to self-discovery and growth with Pilates! Inspired by the wisdom of 95-year-old instructor Mary Bowen, we're advocating for a personalized journey in Pilates, where creativity flourishes and individuality shines.   During this episode, we learned the power of combining Pilates with psychology, unlocking a deeper understanding of ourselves through movement and introspection.

Joseph Pilates developed a system of strengthening exercises which are now practised all over the world. He called it "contrology", but it's now better known as just Pilates. We hear from Mary Bowen, one of the Pilates Elders, who studied with Joseph Pilates and his wife Clara in New York in the 1950s.

As Season Four comes to a close,  I thought it only fitting as we began the season with a First Generation Pilates teacher that we book end it with another.  She is the most senior of our Pilates elders and is none other than Mary Bowen. Mary has taught the Contrology system for the last forty seven years. She is also a trained Jungian  psychoanalyst and cleverly blended the two practices, naming it Pilates Plus Psyche which she continues to teach.  Mary shares her wisdom and encouragement to the many generations of Pilates teachers who have come after her.

The Pilates Method Alliance had its beginnings in 2001.  Kevin Bowen and Colleen Glenn, both Pilates teachers, shared a mutual interest in preserving Joe's Method. So they invited Pilates teachers, including the First Generation - Ron Fletcher, Mary Bowen, Kathy Grant, Lolita San Miguel and even Romana Kryzanowska, though she didn't attend. Also, equipment company owners, Ken Endelman and Moria Stott. They all met in Miami, Florida to form an organization and they set out to create a curriculum that would be the industry's standard for certifying potential Pilates teachers. The PMA has had its ups and downs but has managed to survive for these last two decades. Enter Carla Harris. Hired in 2021 to step into the executive director role, Carla is determined to take the PMA in another direction that is more reflective of today's Pilates community.For more information about the Pilates Method Alliance: https://pilatesmethodalliance.orgFor more information about Darien Gold: https://www.dariengold.comTheme music - Soul Blues Piano Shuffle by Boom Zoom

Prosperity Acres is a small farm that offers high quality Hereford beef and goat meat for sale by the cut or as custom orders. Mary has farming in her genes tracing all the way back to Ireland with her great-great-grandparents. Mary began raising food for her family as a means to eat nutrient dense foods.

As promised, I'm excited to share with you a very special guest. Her name is Mary Bowen and she is the eldest of the Pilates Elders still going strong after sixty-one years of practicing and teaching Pilates. Since 1975, Mary's taught Joe's method and for the last twenty-six years has folded in to Joe's teachings her own Pilates Plus Psyche. According to Mary, Joe addressed the whole body in each move, but she's added her own Pilates Plus Psyche to address the whole person, conscious and unconscious. Some of the most delightful moments of the interview weren't even part of the interview! For more information about Mary you can visit her website: https://pilates-marybowen.com

As Season Two comes to a close and we say good-bye 2020, we wanted to share four of our outstanding podcast and radio show interviews. We begin with John Steel, author of the hotly debated book, Caged Lion...

I’m so excited to share with you a very special guest. Her name is Mary Bowen and she is the eldest of the Pilates Elders still going strong after 61 years of practicing and teaching Pilates. When Mary was 29 years old, she discovered Joseph Pilates while scanning a NYC newspaper and saw an article about him. He was being interviewed about his exercise studio and his Contrology method. What caught Mary’s eye was the accompanying photo of a man of medium height, barelegged, bare chested in tight shorts, canvas shoes, and a lion-like mane of white hair. Something else kept Mary’s attention. “I base my whole method on the baby and the cat, Joe said.” Mary had no baby and no cat, but her intuition told her to go meet him. That was 61 years ago. Mary doesn't hold back and shares stories of her experiences with Joe and Clara...It's a delightful interview, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Mary Bowen, Lakewood's Tarrant/Johnson County sales rep, joins us to chat about women in craft beer, Lakewood's newest beers, and work-life balance. Michael recognizes Amy Grant and Josh knows the answer.

This week, I am joined by Mary Bowen. She shares the emotional story of her experiences parenting children who have struggled with addiction. We discuss the importance of ARP (Addiction Recovery Programs) and also: • Recognizing that your children have their own agency and that “right” or “wrong” parenting does not necessarily dictate where their lives go. • The simple fact that contention and the spirit cannot coincide; problems can be addressed and boundaries can be established without anger. • How important it is to let go of a wayward child and let them face the consequences of their actions. The only real power we have is to simply love them unconditionally. • How important it is to maintain faith and trust that although we do not know the beginning from the end, Heavenly Father does.

Awesome retrosauce right here: it's the Garage Hour live with old-school cohosts at the Pizza Port's Belgian Beer Party in 2010.  We brought all of Hank Watson's killing power to the 'Port, with Diamond Jeff Bagby and Tomme Arthur (both formerly of Pizza Port, with Tomme now at Lost Abbey and Diamond Jeff's new brewery about to open its doors), as well as ubercohosts Grizzly Chris, Mr. Dustin (Top Earner), Dirty Dave, skully artist David Lozeau (davidlozeau.com) and Mary Bowen. We make the most of this one - live interviews with Jeff and Tomme, plus massively mispronounced Belgian beer names, lots of pro sipping, more Evo versus STi tomfoolery from Justin and Dustin, and tales of doom and merriment from the Garage Hour goons.  Just tune in and hold on - we make live radio something to warn your friend about. jf
