The mat sequence of Joseph Pilates
Learn the classical exercises of Contrology as they were meant to be shared
Level I - 33 hours - Intermediate sequence with a solid understanding of the fundamentals of movement
Level II - 75 hours - Full sequence with in-depth coverage of functional movement, breath, and teaching methodology
This is not your average weekend training.
We’ll spend time together learning about who Joseph Pilates was, what he offered, and why, more than 50 years after his death, we can’t get enough of it. We’ll cover the basic, intermediate, and (possibly) advanced exercises of the mat series to offer a comprehensive overview of not only how to establish them into your own body and practice but also how to make them accessible to anyone who comes through your door.
It’s not enough to just practice each exercise a few times and call it good. This is an opportunity to learn, integrate, learn more, integrate more - a continual spiral that will lead you towards a rich understanding of not only the classical mat repertoire, but the full (as much as we can uncover) history of the man and modality.
This is about making Pilates a lifelong practice, and an intimate relationship with your practice ensures that should you choose to teach you can speak from a wealth of knowledge and experience.
