Workshop Descriptions:
3 Chairs + 3 Barrels = 2-way Stretch
How do the 3 Pilates Chairs (High Chair, Wunda Chair and Arm Chair) and the Barrels (Small Barrel, Spine Corrector and Ladder Barrel) work to progress you or your clients in their Pilates workout?
In this 3-hour workshop we’ll use the Chairs and Barrels to refine the 2-way Stretch and reveal the connections to the upper and lower body. We’ll take a look at how the Chairs and Barrels function within the Pilates Method, the challenges they create and the connections they can facilitate. All levels of students can benefit from the exercises on these six apparatus.
The Teaser: The Truth will Prevail
The Teaser is infamous. It’s got a reputation and the word on the street is not good. We’ll comb through the Pilates system in this workshop and discover clues and components to find success in the Teaser. Where in the fundamental exercises do we begin to work on key elements of the Teaser? What are some common pitfalls? What skills of body shape and dynamic opposition do we need to cultivate? Join us for a 3-hour workshop as we strategize how to better our Teaser by working on it all around the Pilates studio. You may even begin to enjoy it.

Balance & Fall Prevention Workshop
During this two hour workshop, you will get an understanding of the systems that work together to create balance in the body. We will discuss fall risks, preventative measures and what to do if you or someone you know was to fall. We will have stations to assess areas of concern (i.e. core strength, hip extension, leg strength, and ankle range of motion) and will then take the group through a series of exercises to open up and strengthen the body. We will have two instructors and a physical therapist to assist in this workshop, so please come if you have concerned yourself over balance or if you are concerned about someone you know. Participants do not have to be current clients of Perfect Form Pilates.
