SUMMARY:An Introduction to Spiraldynamik® for Pilates Instructors
DESCRIPTION:Developed by an international research team led by Dr. Christian Larsen (Switzerland)\, Spiraldynamik® is a movement concept rooted in the natural evolution of human locomotion. Built on the idea that every body holds the potential for efficient\, intelligent movement\, it offers a clear anatomical model to unlock that potential. When combined with Pilates\, the result is a powerful partnership. In this workshop\, you’ll explore some of the core principles of Spiraldynamik® and discover how seamlessly they integrate into your Pilates practice—enhancing alignment\, refining movement quality\, and adding a new three-dimensional depth without compromising the integrity of the Pilates method.

SUMMARY:Playing to Win: Injury Prevention for Athletes
DESCRIPTION:Athletes want to stay in the game. Take a good look at the 4 S’s(Strength\, Stamina\, Stability\, and Stretch) created by repeating the movement patterns required in each sport. Repetitive movement patterns cause imbalance in the body which can lead to injury. Injuries can also happen due to the aggressive nature of the sport. Having the knowledge of how each sport creates imbalance can help you build a strong active plan to help prevent injury in your athletes.

SUMMARY:Snake Eyes: Imagery for Economy of Teaching – Extension
DESCRIPTION:Extension is a challenge to teach. When observing most clients during the first hour\, teachers may notice kyphosis of the thoracic spine and associated poor body alignment. These postural changes are often due to age\, injury or related to work and lifestyle. Lack of extension in the thoracic spine and the relationship of the lumbar and cervical spine are difficult to navigate. Clients often respond better to images that are equal to anatomical or postural cues. An image can project a sensation that promotes integration of form within exercises. For the teacher\, images can be taught and distilled to one word for economy of time. Experiential change is the goal\, and imagery is a great tool combined with Pilates exercise. This leads to progression and satisfaction of accomplishment when the client can feel the Swan.

SUMMARY:Lay your cards down: Spinal Discs Decoded
DESCRIPTION:Our bodies are designed for movement and as Pilates teachers we want to deepen our understanding of how spinal discs move\, adapt\, and respond to load in both healthy and compromised spines. Through embodied exploration\, clear anatomical context\, and practical movement examples\, learn how to feel disc behavior rather than rely solely on abstract cues or fixed rules. Examine common movement patterns and teaching habits that may contribute to disc strain\, and explore strategies that support disc hydration\, load distribution\, and resilience. You’ll gain practical tools to help reduce injury risk\, recognize red flags\, and confidently support clients who are recovering from disc-related issues within appropriate scope of practice.

SUMMARY:Score: Developing a powerful personal Mat Practice
DESCRIPTION:The best teacher is within each of us and knowledge is gained through personal practice. Students often lament that they were at their Pilates best during their training due to hard study and sweat needed to graduate. When receiving diplomas\, new teachers are told that this is only the beginning. Teaching clients and running a studio can slowly put a focus on our clients and the original joy of doing the work can be lost. Teaching can become theoretical rather than experiential. When does the teacher gift themselves time for recovery of a personal practice? How does one begin to do this? In the beginning\, Joe Pilates’ passion was to create an exercise regimen that would build the physical body so that all could enjoy a vigorous lifestyle and become our best. If Joe were here\, he might have said to all who teach his work to get onto the mat or reformer and “just do it”.

SUMMARY:Payout: Dynamic Balance
DESCRIPTION:The risk of falling increases after age 65\, but balance can be trained and improved at any age. While many balance exercises are static\, life is dynamic — and our training should be too. In this workshop\, we explore how the body truly creates balance in motion and how to use dynamic exercises to train it effectively. You’ll learn which systems work together behind the scenes — from feet to core to eyes — and how to challenge them in fun\, functional ways. Help your clients move with more confidence\, stability\, and ease — because better balance means better movement\, and better movement means a better life.

SUMMARY:Play the Slots: Coccyx Cues for Postural Organization
DESCRIPTION:Correct execution within exercises yields the results that require concentration and effort from both the client and the teacher. In the first lessons\, the organization of the pelvis can be relatively simple. The goal is to slowly and methodically improve organization and apply this to movement. As the client progresses\, organizational cuing becomes more detailed and refined. The teacher will recognize that subtle postural changes are necessary but discover that the words are hard to find. This is especially true when cuing the coccyx. What does it mean to say tailbone down? What do we mean when we say the pelvis is tucked? The functional spine also includes the sacrum and the coccyx which join to form the sacral coccygeal joint. The sacrum and coccyx can move independently but are connected. They are a team. Applying imagery and anatomical cues specific to the tailbone can assist with better results when applied to Mat and equipment. When clients change\, they feel the difference and teachers feel empowered.
