ANATOMY PRIMER
A comprehensive overview intended for people new to the study of human anatomy. Emphasis will be on learning to visualize the musculoskeletal system three dimensionally from the skeleton into the various layers of soft tissue. You will also gain a global understanding of how the musculoskeletal system functions to produce movement. Emphasis on the trunk, pelvic girdle/hips, and shoulder girdle will set students up to absorb the anatomical framework for Mat Work Foundations, and Mat Work Intermediate/Advanced with ease and confidence. MAT WORK FOUNDATIONS
Mat Work Foundations is the first part of the complete Pilates Mat Work
Repertoire Training. It is an introductory course, 20 hours in length. The
course begins with 26 Foundational exercises that focus on correct movement
mechanics in the spine, pelvic and shoulder girdles. Next we review key
exercises to facilitate core stabilization needed to execute the Classical
Pilates repertoire. Intermediate Classical exercises will be analyzed in detail
so participants gain a comprehensive understanding of what each exercise looks
like, how to execute each one properly, how to detect improper execution, and
how to modify exercises effectively. Participants learn the historical roots,
nine major principles of The Pilates Method, and a framework for designing Mat
Work classes that build toward the Classical repertoire safely. Emphasis will be
placed on understanding exercise mechanics and teaching techniques to enhance
accessibility, safety, and correct biomechanics in every Pilates class you
teach.
Mat Work Classic & Innovations is the second part of the Complete Pilates
Mat Work Training. It is a 20 hour certificate course that focuses on teaching
applications of the Pilates Mat Work Repertoire. You build on the framework
presented in Mat Work Foundations and review of all Classical Pilates Mat Work
exercises so that you know how to use them effectively with any person, in any
teaching setting. The weekend includes master classes, lecture, small group
activities, practice teaching and observation. Each student will have the
opportunity to teach the group and receive personalized feedback on her/his
teaching skills. At the completion of this course you leave with a clear
understanding of how to design well-rounded, safe, and dynamic Mat Work classes
for any level.
The Vertical Intensive is the standing application of Pilates and the third
level in the Complete Mat Work Training. Packed with challenging exercises, this
14 hour workshop will provide you with a new dimension to movement education and
Pilates-based conditioning. We begin with Foundation exercises that focus on leg
alignment, balance and the "how to's" of finding support on one leg. The
exercises build in complexity and difficulty that increasingly require a finely
tuned sense of counter-balancing throughout the body. We will also explore key
movement principals of Rudolph Laban and Hubert Godard so you leave with a rich
context within which to introduce your participant to Vertical Pilates. This workshop combines the old and the new with over ninety exercises to explore. The Magic Circle™ is one of Joseph Pilates’ original pieces of portable equipment and its simplicity becomes remarkable when you realize how versatile it is. The circle is a must if your clients are asking for resistance training. To boot it is tailor made to strengthen and realign the midline and inner thighs. The Rotating Discs are a modern addition to the Pilates mix of small apparatus. Hands down these are unsurpassed if you are interested in refining muscle recruitment or movement re-patterning. You can use the discs to mobilize the entire spine, realign and decompress the hip joints and release chronic tension in the shoulder girdle. They provide challenge to your midriff that is exhausting after only a few repetitions and the way they target your obliques feels different than anything else you’ve tried. THERABANDS TM & WEIGHTED BALLSFor a twist on resistance training that leaves you with that “Pilates feeling” of strength with length, Therabands™ and Weighted Balls will inspire. Over the course of the day you are introduced to more than fifty exercises, each one focused on creating connections through the core of the body via the limbs and then back again. The essence of these pieces of small apparatus is that your muscles work intensely but feel stretched out at the end of the class. The sensation of a rigorous workout that leaves your joints feeling free yet supported is amazing! Your clients will feel the effects as profound. STABILITY BALLS & FOAM ROLLERSSimple, portable and inexpensive, stability balls and foam rollers can add new challenge and depth to all your Pilates mat and reformer classes. You will learn more than fifty exercises that build from simple to complex and from relatively stable to extremely unstable. Clients love these pieces of equipment but need clear guidance on how to work synergistically with an unstable surface rather than bracing against it. Experience key cueing techniques that will really define your class as balance training that engages the body from the inside out. 7 Week Fast Track Pilates Equipment IntensiveThe 7 Week Equipment Intensive is a fast track version of the ten week course. Course content and requirements are identical to the longer course, but trainees must plan to complete approximately 55 hours per week to fulfill course requirements. |
