Workshop & Assessment

What's in the course?

The next step on from the Pilates Fundamentals course is Mat Pilates Improver, which involves many more exercises at improver and intermediate level. This workshop will provide Pilates Teachers with further mat exercises, stretches, and also the knowledge and skills to enable them to incorporate the stability ball and resistance band into existing Pilates classes.

The workshop will also provide the theory behind 'neutral alignment' and 'what is good posture'.This course is a component of the Complete Mat Pilates Diploma, but can also be taken separately.

The course covers:

• New ideas for warm ups-standing and lying
   
• Improver/intermediate level Mat Pilates exercises
   
• Linking exercises to create effective sequences to intensify and add variety to your current sessions
   

• Techniques on how to modify, adapt and progress each exercise to suit individual needs
   
• Common postural types and exercises/stretches to assist in muscle balance aiding in the improvement of posture
   
• The use of resistance bands-adding intensity to Pilates Mat Work exercises to lengthen and strengthen the muscles of the arms, legs and torso
   
• The use of stability balls-challenging balance and the deep core muscles with a series of basic Pilates based exercises and stretches on a ball
