Spanish speaking pilates fans will be thrilled to learn that STOTT PILATES is translating the first three titles in its training manual library. Just as its English counterparts, the Spanish manuals will illustrate every movement in the STOTT PILATES repertoire, and feature the same detailed, step-by-step instructions for each exercise using anatomical terminology, with countless variations and modifications included. The first title, Ejercicios completos sobre colchoneta [Comprehensive Matwork] is estimated to arrive in June 2006. Essential and Intermediate Reformer manuals will follow.
