WS-01:The essences of an exercise (Mat) (2*)

"The essence of an exercise"©
using the example of “classic mat” (Basic/Intermediate)

Pilates exercises can be analysed based on knowledge from anatomy,
biomechanics and physiology, and “broken down” into their “essences”.
This is an important pre-requisite not only for truly understanding the respective
Pilates exercise in terms of effect and function, but also for identifying the
respective requirements your participant needs for the exercise.
You’ll learn how you can create these requirements for your participant
by working with them on the essences of the exercise.
This workshop is aimed at both classic and modern Pilates training approaches. ©

WS-A:Pregnancy (1*)

Pregnancy and Pilates

… This is no contradiction! Quite the opposite!
Selected and/or modified pilates exercises tailored to the relevant pregnancy trimester
are a great way to assist the changes occurring within the body.
Breathing, concentration, mobility and dynamically muscular stability take pressure off the back,
support mental and physical strength of mothers-to-be,
and can also prepare the body for the time after birth.
This all benefits the child’s development as well.

Symptom <> Analysis-Cause-Exercise selection!

The symptoms which appear in the shoulder girdle region can have many different causes:
