[Pilates Fundamentals] [Exercise Breakdown] [Understanding Posture]

Workshops

Pilates Fundamentals

This workshop is for Pilates Mat & Equipment practitioners, who don't require a teacher certification, but are still very interested in learning the Fundamentals. You will participate in the first part of the Fundamentals & Matwork Teacher Training course and gain an understanding of the Fundamentals and how they relate to Pilates exercises

The Fundamentals are very practical movement principles and can be applied to any fitness regime. In an easily adaptable way students will be introduced and practice the biomechanics, muscle patterns and exercise principles underlying the exercises.  This allows to move correctly from your center which supports access to internal stabilizers, which has been proven to reduce injury, create better alignment and to increase overall balance to the body by building core stabilization.

Fee $95 for 6 hours, in general between 8 AM and 3 PM. Click here for dates and enrollment.

Understanding Posture

Join us to learn more about recognizing common and compensatory patterns as well as more subtle structural issues you may encounter in your own posture.
Body Reading is observing posture in an attempt to notice what the relationships between different parts of the body might be. Many postural patterns that cause discomfort appear in a subtle manner.

In this workshop you will learn about how posture evolves over time, by di-secting the whole with the eye and a thorough understanding of the factors that may have an influence on posture and then assess how all separate body parts and their interactions affect the entire structure.
This workshop is adjusted from its regular Teacher Training format to inform clients practicing Pilates, Yoga, Gyrotonic as well as dancers, runners and serious athletes and includes a handout.

Fee $65 for 3 hours. For dates and enrollment click here.
