This 3 hour workshop will train you to use your eyes to notice subtle changes of alignment and tensions in the body and the relationships of structures to each other. Using this information we can, through movement practice, achieve more effective and balanced tensions within the body. We will look into the anatomy of how our shape is dictated by the tensioning of elastic structures including the muscular and fascial systems. Shifting our awareness from 2 dimensional pictures to a 3 dimensional reality. You will gain an understanding of what you are seeing and sensing in your own body and in the bodies of other people. We will shift the emphasis and image of our bodies from mechanical individual parts to a whole, integrated, self regulated living structure. We will experiment with movements and exercises to provoke change and balance throughout .
This workshop is suitable for anyone who has completed a mat, reformer or comprehensive training and are looking to advance their understanding and knowledge of working with clients in the Pilates environment.

Knowing the exercises matters. But so does recognising the person in front of you, with their own experiences, beliefs and history.
Thank you, Liz, for this thoughtful reminder.

What can a change in movement tell you?
Pathokinesiology explores how pathology, injury and disease influence movement, helping movement teachers observe more thoughtfully, ask better questions and make informed choices within their scope of practice.
Discover why this perspective matters in our latest article. Read the full article via the link in our bio.

Everyone can choose their own Reformer but if the carriage comes with its own sound effects, we may have questions. 😅
A good deal is always welcome, but quality, stability and correct setup matter when safety is involved.

Teacher training is about more than learning the material.
It’s about sharing ideas, practising together and having mentors who support you along the way.
Thank you, Susan, for this important reminder.

Some things are scarier than ghosts.
Perfect form. Endless cueing. Repeating what isn’t creating change. And being so busy teaching that there’s no room left to learn.
Movement teachers, which one haunts you?

Pilates isn’t only about shaping the body. It can help us maintain the strength, mobility and confidence we need for everyday life.
Carrying the shopping. Taking the stairs. Reaching, lifting, playing and staying independent.
What everyday activity do you want to keep doing for years to come?

Squeezing harder doesn’t mean getting stronger
As Soo Hui explains, real strength emerges when we allow the whole body to work together, with less gripping, less stiffness and more ease.
Thank you, Soo Hui, for sharing this perspective.
