Whether it be old injuries, new injuries, diseases, or just about anything else, this workshop should help you have a better way of understanding what you can address and what you cannot as a pilates teacher, as well how to start and progress a program with classical pilates.
If you take this workshop, you will be sent a form to fill out about your case study, providing the issues that you find most common amongst your students and would like to be able to address in your sessions with them. From the submitted we will choose a few case studies for the group to learn from in the time allotted.
