Description

In our global society, social media often plays an integral part in our livelihoods and in our businesses. So, how can we as movement teachers and coaches make use of it in the most ethical way? Make sure you tune into this episode of The Pilates Exchange, where we delve into the big world of social media! Today, we share our thoughts on the ethics of posting pictures or videos of your clients or students and question the motives behind posting. We also discuss why it is so important to have a social media strategy rather than just haphazardly putting stuff out there. We encourage you to think about how to not just create more noise, but really put an effort into creating content that you truly believe in and that elevates our profession as a whole.

Key Points From This Episode:

• The wonderful world of social media: the good things.
• Getting a little bit deeper: sharing stories.
