Cadillac & Tower
Level 1/2
2025
In this course, we cover the extensive Cadillac and Tower Level 1 & 2 exercises. The Cadillac was the first equipment Joseph Pilates created. Wonderfully versatile, the vast repertoire is as effective for new and therapeutic clients as it is for challenging the experienced advanced athlete. The Cadillac “advantage” is the non- moving bed and higher platform – appropriate for many clients with hip replacements, vertigo and mobility issues, as well as an abundance of exercises in standing adding dynamic functional strength elements. The course includes a continued review of functional anatomy, postural analysis, adaptive cueing, case studies and practice teaching opportunities.
Chair Level 1/2
Spring - 2025
This course covers the Chair Level 1 & 2 repertoire plus modifications. A strong understanding of the Mat + Reformer Repertoire is required to participate in this course. There will be heavier focus on the integration of the foundational material with the chair repertoire to build comprehensive programming for clients. There will be continued review of functional anatomy, postural analysis, adaptive cueing, case studies and practice teaching opportunities.
Barrels Level 1/2
Spring - 2025
This course will prepare you to teach the Pilates Process Level 1 & 2 exercises on the Arc Barrel, Ladder Barrel and Spine Corrector. Barrels are a beautiful piece of equipment designed by Joseph Pilates and an excellent way to get clients to challenge their core stability and strength.
