Reunion is bringing you the best in movement education and we’re so excited to teach you how we do it. We have been listening to the needs of our community and building you a program that will be accessible and inspiring. Whether you’re looking to deepen your knowledge for your own interest or upgrading your skills for teaching classes we have you covered!
Our program is based in the core excercises of the Pilates repertoire and informed by more modern understanding of biomechanics and diverse bodies. We see Pilates making a difference in the lives of our clients every day. We believe strongly in our approach to Contemporary Pilates and we are so excited that you want to take this journey with us!
Overview:
Anatomy Primer - A basic whole-body anatomy course, including an overview of the muscular and skeletal systems, the planes of movement, and vocabulary to describe movement. We also take an in-depth look at the anatomy of the core and examine the importance of Ideal Alignment and Neutral Pelvis.
Understanding Pilates - We will study and review 30 key core exercises and their biomechanics. We’ll look at props, progressions and modifications. You’ll also learn core class designs and exercise cueing. You will be expected to practice teach and self practice.
