Archival Arm Springs, Neck Stretcher and Other Things!

Description

Step back in time and discover some of Joe Pilates’ original exercises. This workshop will focus on the archival arm springs as well as exploring a few of the neck stretcher exercises, diving into how they all relate to the exercises we are more familiar with today. We’ll explore the intention behind each variation and have fun experiencing the movements and discovering our inner Joe!

Additionally, you'll enjoy an motivating standing workout inspired by archival sources that Joe has documented. The standing work is not only fun and challenging, but also brings a very accessible option when working with our clients as they transition from mat towards apparatus work. It’s a great way to reveal and experience the physicality within the work when you finish workouts upright, connected from head to toe, and ready to take on life outside the studio door.


Why should I take this workshop?

Discovering the original work can be a great way to better understand our modern take on the method and improve our teaching. It’s also a whole lot of fun!

This workshop is a great combination of discovery and participation, that allows you go back in time, and to share an experience of feeling the essence of Joe’s work, while looking forward to how it relates to our modern take on the method.
