PILATES AND POETRY

Barbara Elovic is one rockin' pilates teacher. She gets us students laughing and smiling as we do the challenging moves that Joseph Pilates created so people could strengthen their core postural muscles.

I stayed after class last week and chatted with Barbara. Turns out she's a serious poet and a contributor to the anthology I Speak of the City: Poems of New York (Columbia University Press).

Barbara will be reading from the anthology I Speak of the City on April 29th at 6:30 p.m. The reading will be held at the New York Tenement Museum at 97 Orchard Street, above Delancey.
