关于 TingAbout Ting
我是 Ting，在上海教普拉提。
我喜欢教课，也喜欢自己去运动。跑步、台球、瑜伽、游泳、徒步，最近也开始接触越野跑。
有的运动让我喘得很厉害，有的安静到只剩下一次击球。
它们向身体提出的问题完全不同，我很喜欢这种差异。进到水里、山里，或者只是站在球桌前，我都会重新发现一点自己以前没注意到的东西。
Pilates 是我持续学习和教授的专业。其他运动不是我的教学标签，更像是我作为一个练习者，继续认识身体的方式。
上课时，我会先看看你今天是什么状态，再决定这一节怎么练。你有明确目标当然可以；没有也没关系，我们可以边练边找。
我不太喜欢一上来就告诉你“这里不对、那里要改”。身体不是一道只有一个标准答案的题。有时候练过几次，你会比任何解释都更清楚自己发生了什么。
我还在继续学习，也还在继续练。
目前我的私教练习使用全场 Merrithew（曼丽丘）Pilates 器械。器械会根据当次目标和你的状态来选，不是为了把课变复杂。
Notsweetin 是我一直使用的名字。对我来说，它只是一个很私人的小提醒：不用急着迎合，也不用急着给人和身体下结论。
I’m Ting, a Pilates teacher based in Shanghai.
I love teaching, and I like being a beginner in other kinds of movement too. I run, play pool, practise yoga, swim and hike — and recently, I’ve started exploring trail running.
Some make me breathe hard. Some become as quiet as a single shot at the table.
They ask completely different things of the body, and I like that. In the water, in the mountains, or simply standing at a pool table, I keep noticing things I had missed before.
Pilates is what I continue to study and teach. The other things are not teaching labels for me; they are ways I keep learning about movement as a person who practises.
When I teach, I start with how you are that day, then decide where the session should go. A clear goal is welcome. If you do not have one yet, we can find the direction as we move.
I do not like beginning with “this is wrong” or “that needs fixing.” A body is not a problem with one correct answer. Sometimes a few sessions of moving tell you more than a long explanation can.
I’m still learning — and still practising.
My current private sessions use a full Merrithew Pilates apparatus setup. I choose the apparatus around the person and the session, not to make practice more complicated.
Notsweetin is a name I’ve used for a long time. For me, it is simply a personal reminder not to rush to please, label, or decide too quickly what a body should be.
