Pilates in your Pocket - Mat Class Level I and II 6 week Course

Over the years, many clients have asked if we would write down exercises that they could do at home or while traveling. In response to popular demand, we have created a unique workshop where you will not only get a fabulous workout, but you will learn the Basic Classical Mat routine and be able to take it with you, exercising at home or on the road! Each week, students will begin class with a powerful mat workout. We will then focus on one section of the series, breaking it down so that students thoroughly understand the importance of proper execution and awareness of their movement patterns. Students will be given study guides and homework at the end of each class. Upon completion of this 6-week workshop, students should be able to perform the entire Basic Classical mat workout after taking Level I and the entire intermediate mat workout after Level II on their own at home - thus named “Pilates in your Pocket”!

The Chair (also known as the Wunda Chair) was inspired by the equipment used to train Chinese acrobats and circus performers. It improves strength, stablity and flexibility. It also helps correct imbalances, refines movement and provides variety and a challenge to those who are already taking Reformer and Mat. It deepens the understanding in the body of what is happening on the mat and reformer. You will literally feel EVERY muscle in your core working while exercising on the chair.
