\nCaged Lion: An Interview with John Howard Steel
\nOriginal Air Date: September 14, 2020
\nWhat was Joseph Pilates really like? John Howard Steel knows.
\nJohn is one of few people who knew Joseph Pilates in and out of his studio. Serving as attorney and confidant to Joe and Clara, John has a unique perspective on who they were as teachers and people.
\nHis new book \"Caged Lion: Joseph Pilates and His Legacy\", recounts the years he spent with the couple and Joe's difficult path to legitimizing his Contrology exercise method. Something that seems hard-to-believe given the popularity of Pilates today.
\nBenjamin Degenhart interviews John about his experiences with Joe and Clara and why he decided to finally write about them. Includes a Q and A following the interview.
\nThis will undoubtedly shed light on what has been somewhat of a murky history of Pilates.
