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.

Marcela Zia ~ Empower Pilates Apparatus company
Our guest today is Marcela Zia, a former professional ballet dancer, who now represents Empower Pilates, a classical Pilates apparatus company in Brazil. Based on Joe Pilates original designs, but also responsive to the teachers who use the equipment, this company is the latest in the growing need for quality classical apparatus. When I refer to Joe’s apparatus as “classical” for those who don’t know, it implies that Joe’s designs are carefully preserved with minimal changes, if any. I remember vividly Romana sharing with us that she would monthly or at least regularly, visit the Gratz Industries factory, at that time, in Long Island City, Queens to make sure they were complying with Joe’s specifications. I’ve asked our guest, Marcela to tell us about Empower Pilates, and what the reception has been like especially, here in America.
