More Personal Development than Business

This book revolves around the question, "what kind of [Pilates] teacher do you want to be?" It is less about Pilates business and marketing, and more about personal development.

There are better personal development books. This gives such a brief description of ideas that it is like reading notes.

I prefer Abraham-Hicks, Louise Hay, and Wayne Dyer.

This is a very "hands-on" resource, with many exercises. This book will assist you digging to the centre of what makes your teaching unique and enjoyable.
