If other people bother you, take private lessons.

I would agree, if it was a lot of people doing this. But if one person is doing the annoying thing, they should be the one to take a private class.

There's a woman at my orangetheory who constantly uses my floor space (everyone is assigned an area, she comes over and gets in mine, wherever I am that day). I'm going to talk to the instructor. So should you. Instructors are busy instructing and trying to please the clientele so they don't always key in on this kind of stuff.

Why don’t you talk directly to the person? Why go to the instructor?

Talk to the person?! In Every single Pilates reformer class I’ve been to the instructor is actually telling people to breathe more. She says I can’t hear you! Breathing is part of the Pilates technique.

Yes, this. All the people bothered by intensive breathing are doing it wrong.

She can't hear over the breathing. Send her an email.

Oh this would bother me so much too!

I thought weird, specific breathing sounds were part of Pilates. I have had multiple instructors who make a range of sounds specific to certain exercises. The one that comes to mind is this rhythmic chuffing sound like a train chugging along during hundreds. I always felt self conscious in smaller classes because I don’t like to do the vocal breathing part.

Why was such a specific topic thread dredged up 5 years later, I'm more interested in that.

DP: Actually PP you are the "weirdo". These are the types of classes where focused breathing is the most important part of the class. Maybe you have misophonia?

But this one is so specific. Someone had to search on "loud breathing" or similar to even find this. Funny where our minds take us.
