TFT's Bosom Buddies series kicks off TFT 2026 with Kyria Sabin and Jacqueline Ethier!
Fletcher Towelwork is a technique developed by Pilates master-teacher Ron Fletcher over the span of forty years. It was initially designed to stabilize, balance and strengthen the shoulder girdle. The Pink Towelwork Program offers a gentle, low-intensity movement approach for women recovering from chest wall surgeries, breast cancer treatments, or elective surgery. Using the Fletcher Towel, the program focuses on breath, posture, shoulder mobility, thoracic movement, and scapular strength and stability, helping participants restore functional movement and reconnect with their bodies.
This TFT Bosom Buddies class is suitable for all levels—join us to explore the Fletcher Towelwork in your own body, and to consider its application for clients who’ve been impacted by breast cancer.
While the Fletcher braided towel is the optimal tool for Fletcher Towelwork, feel free to use a bath towel from your linen closet when you join us from home.
CLICK HERE to join us on the Mat for this special Virtual TFT Class taught by Bosom Buddies!
Can’t make it September 12th? All registrants will have access to the recording for 30 days after the live class!
