Intent
In this workshop, we will identify and work on the INTENT of the Pilates vocabulary/Method.
First the INTENT of the Excercise(s) itself/themselves and how this INTENT will need to shift in relation to the client or the use of apparatus. The insight this creates for YOU the Pilates Teacher will give you a deeper and broader application and understanding within your teaching.

Initiation and Stability
We know the Pilates Method it's vocabulary. Here we will look at where to initiate a movement to stabilize. The use/recognition of DIRECT/INDIRECT stabilization. This will create a clear recognition of what to look for and know what you are looking at. It will reveal the LOAD in the exercises. This, in turn, creates a better application of your teaching Pilates.
