Workshop Content
The Art of Cueing
This BASI Pilates workshop will focus on one of the fundamentals of all teaching skills “cueing”. It is in fact this basic ingredient that sets the stage for all communication between the teacher and the student. Communication demands great skill as information must be conveyed, received and integrated in a very short amount of time to bring about desired results. Good cueing should be the basis of any skilled teaching session and directly relates to the methodology of the Pilates method as a whole.
Optimising Shoulder Mechanics with Pilates
This second BASI Pilates workshop will focus on the correct mechanics of the shoulder girdle – particularly relating to the Pilates repertoire. Immaculate control and sequencing of movement are essential in this method. Higher level Pilates challenges, coupled with everyday activities demanding shoulder involvement, can easily create negative movement patterns and compensations. Poor shoulder stability, mobility and correct patterning of movements are commonly encountered amongst clients. This subject is one that needs to be addressed as its implications are far reaching.
