CLASS G: The Cadillac

Owning an original, Pilates-built Cadillac handed down to her by her mentor, Carola Trier, it's no wonder Master Pilates teacher Jillian Hessel is so highly respected for her work on this multi-purpose apparatus. Explore the versatility of the Cadillac, from basic to advanced exercises, as well as specialty routines passed down to Jillian from first-generation teachers Carola Trier & Kathy Grant. Highly recommended as a review for the national Pilates certification exam.
