6 varieties of REVERSE ELEPHANT on the #allegro2reformer. 🐘 In this version, my arms are pulling the carriage against light spring resistance with the intention of keeping my feet/foot directly underneath my hips as it moves. In the last 2 clips, I’m aiming to keep my shoulders lined up with my wrists as well. First, while keeping the torso and carriage stable as the back leg lifts. Then, with spinal mobilization and a hip opener to finish the series. Quite the coordination challenge! 🤪 🐘 👉🏻Flip through the clips to see the full sequence. (Only one side of the single leg variations is shown) . . . . . . #selfpractice #pilatesreformer #contrology #pilatespro #movementteacher #pilatesinspo #iteachpilates #pilates #pilatesfeelsgood #relpilates #pilateslovers #wellness #moveyourbody #pilatesstudio #elephantseries #fullbodyworkout #balance #creativepilates #pilatessessions #functionaltraining #advancedpilates #pilatesisforeveryBODY #pilatescommunity #movementheals #pilatesofinstagram #mindfulmovement (at Flow Pilates) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpN_hoTA_zG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

QVC and HSN Merger Creates E-Commerce Powerhouse

As e-commerce continues to explode, consolidating the two largest home shopping TV/media brands is a strategic move to batten down the hatches while expanding reach—and locking arms against Amazon.

Media mogul John C. Malone is merging his Liberty Interactive, owner of QVC, with long-standing competitor, Home Shopping Network, in a $2.1 billion deal that gives QVC the portion of HSN that it doesn’t already own—assuming the merger passes federal anti-trust scrutiny.

Both brands have seen sales slow as Amazon’s online dominance soars, so combining the now digital-first QVC (located in West Chester, Pennsylvania, with corporate at Liberty’s HQ of Englewood, Colorado) and HSN (based in St. Petersburg, Florida) at this moment in time is not a huge surprise. Even so, QVC still did $8.7 billion in sales last year and HSN has revenue of $3.5 billion. In May, Liberty CEO Greg Maffei said he saw “some synergy values” in a combination.

As Fortune notes, the times have been a-changing for home shopping, which is now more about online and mobile than TV and still fighting to become an everyday retail choice and not just at the holidays. “Over the past decade, QVC has seen many of its customers shift from the traditional call-in and desktop orders to mobile. Of the company’s $3.9 billion in e-commerce annual revenue in Q3 of 2016, almost 60% came from a mobile device, a 10% jump from the same period in 2015.”

The two will remain standalone brands under a new QVC Group corporate structure in an all-stock transaction where Liberty Interactive is buying the 62 percent of HSN it does not already own. “The increased scale of this combination will allow us to more effectively compete, we think, in a changing and evolving retail and digital environment,” Maffei commented to the New York Times.

“Every year they together produce over 55,000 hours of shoppable video content and have strong positions on multiple linear channels and OTT platforms,” Maffei stated in the press release announcing the merger. “The value of the combined QVC, HSNi and Zulily will be further highlighted when later this year QVC Group becomes an asset-backed stock as part of the previously announced split-off of Liberty Ventures.”

The Times notes that “such a spinoff is a classic Malone maneuver meant to avoid running up corporate taxes, since shareholders will receive shares in the newly-christened QVC Group rather than a cash payout.”

Under the proposed terms of the deal, investors would receive 1.65 shares of QVC Series A stock for each share of HSN they own, valuing HSN at $40.36 a share, a 29 percent premium to its closing price on Wednesday. The transaction is expected to close in Q4 subject to shareholder and regulatory approval.

QVC has grown internationally since it was founded in 1986 to pitch wares from Sears and other retailers to customers at home, and now broadcasts to more than 350 million households in seven countries: the US, UK, Germany, Japan, Italy, China and France.

“HSN founded the industry 40 years ago and helped it grow with exciting initiatives like Shop By Remote and media integrations with leading content producers,” QVC president and CEO Mike George stated.

“By creating the leader in discovery-based shopping, we will enhance the customer experience, accelerate innovation, leverage our resources and talents to further strengthen our brands, and redeploy savings for innovation and growth. As the prominent global video commerce retailer and North America’s third-largest mobile and e-Commerce retailer, the combined company will be well-positioned to help shape the next generation of retailing.”

Liberty’s Maffei said the deal will “enhance QVC’s position as the leading global video e-commerce retailer,” as the two former rivals join forces to reassert their stake and navigate an omnichannel world.

QVC’s popular brands include homewares and apparel by Ellen DeGeneres, Josie Maran, IT Cosmetics, Isaac Mizrahi along with younger brands such as Daya by Zendaya, who also promoted a FFANY shoe sale for last October’s breast cancer awareness month.

HSN, meanwhile, has been selling off brands to off-set its sales slump, but one notable exception is its Cornerstone Brands subsidiary, which was purchased under then-owner IAC (Barry Diller’s InteractiveCorp) in 2005 for $720 million.

Cornerstone President Judy Schmeling tells the Tampa Bay Times that HSN was attracted to the brand to help grow its apparel and home business. “We have the consumer insights to share across all the brands and customer experience online. It’s beneficial both ways.”

Cornerstone’s five online/catalog brands: • Ballard Designs for home interior decorators specializing in product customization • Frontgate caters to a higher demographic and as users tell their stories at home through products • Garnet Hill, a stylish adult and children’s apparel catalog • Improvements, a sub-brand under Frontgate that offers affordable, colorful items for the home. • Cornerstone Brands, which is opening stores now, just as peers and rivals are closing them en masse.

“Retailers are shedding stores because they’re completely ‘over-stored.’ The vast majority of retail sales is still done in retail stores. We don’t have the baggage others do with a bunch of stores including less-productive ones. We are selectively going into locations only in A-plus malls, no B or C malls at all,” Schmeling explained.

“We are considering some lifestyle centers that aren’t traditional mall locations, too. It’s about creating an experience for those customers where we offer a lot of events, pair with restaurants and bars, and tailor each experience to one of brands,” she added.

“It’s so highly customizable and we’re making sure it’s (a) 360-degree experience from design consultations that compliment our services over the phone and online. It’s a complete offering. We’re getting a significant amount of new customers from digital means too. But the retail footprints help bring the brand to life. The flat digital experience is hard to get across.”

You asked me what is the right number of repetitions in Pilates practice. It is recommended from as little as 6 to as many as you can manage. If you reached 20 and not feeling anything, this means it's time for a progression eg., adding some resistance. In all my trainings, I always advise to listen to your own body and the last couple movements should feel like a struggle. #pilatesislife #pilatesmethod #pilatesbodies #pilatesflow #pilatesrepetitions #pilatesnatal #pilatespro #pilatespernambuco #pilatespravida #pilatesinstrutor #pilatesstyle #pilatesmovement #pilatespose #pilatesestudio #pilateshorsham #pilatesclinic #pilatesforhealth #pilatesbunny #pilatesisforeverybody (at Bodywise Gym & Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLZNT7rnPKn/?igshid=gaht3cxkg1c2

Saying farewell to the Month of March with #PushUps ⬇️ #MarchMatness2020 Day 3️⃣1️⃣ I filmed this push-up vid 3 weeks ago using the #RollDownBar and #PilatesBox. This might be my favorite way to practice push-ups, although there are many other options for doing them at home without using a Pilates apparatus.⤵️ 🖐 on a wall 🖐 on a couch/bed 🖐 on a chair Inclined push-ups are a great way to build up your strength for floor push-ups. Find a version that feels right for you! ・・・ @marchmatness is brought to you by @benjamindegenhardt & @360pilatesonline ・・・ Join me tomorrow (Wednesday) at 10am EST for a virtual open level Pilates mat class! Sign up on @mindbody through @streamlinepilatesstudio. The link is also in my bio! ・・・ #quarentine #corona2020 #covid_19 #socialdistancing #virtualpilates #livepilates #relpilates #pilates #ilovepilates #pilatesclasses #pilatesteacher #iteachpilates #pilatespro #pilatesworkout #fitness #wellness #corestrength #fullbodyworkout #pilatesbody #idopilates #pilatesforeverybody #pilatesstudio #moveyourbody #pilatescommunity #marchmatness #marchmatnessday31 (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-ZsQ6bggt8/?igshid=8xq7j57kxb45
