Pelvic floor dysfunction is one of the most common and least talked about issues affecting women. Pregnancy, childbirth, and aging all take a toll on the pelvic floor that can lead to discomfort, pain, and incontinence. In this workshop, we'll discuss common issues and how Pilates can help support clients experiencing pelvic floor disfunction.

Learn how to create a safe, effective program for clients with scoliosis. Understand the variations of scoliosis and their health risk to the client. Design a program that allows for a balance between stability and mobility of the spine while helping your client gain strength and functionality. We'll discuss how best to use breath and cuing to support a client with scoliosis on the mat and apparatus.

Master the unique challenges and rewarding dynamics of instructing semi-private sessions (duets or trios). The course will emphasize efficient programming to address different client needs and apparatus simultaneously, strategic cueing that serves multiple students without sacrificing personalized attention, and mastering the art of safe spring management and transitions in a small group setting. By improving instructional efficiency and client management, teachers can confidently lead these sessions, directly contributing to increased studio revenue by optimizing time and resources, ensuring a profitable and well-executed experience that maintains the classical integrity and flow for all clients.

This workshop will take you through the classical technique and proper teaching tools of the full Advanced Mat order. Refine your knowledge of the exercises, develop new and more efficient cues, and learn how to take your client to the next level with efficient flow and transitions from one exercise to the next. We'll discuss how and where the Advanced Mat exercises can be utilized in private and semi-private sessions.
