Brooke Siler Pilates Workshop Titles:
The Upper Hand - Beginner to Intermediate Matwork (2 hours)
Come join in the 15-30+ exercises of the Beginner to Intermediate Series of the Classical Mat. In this workshop you will learn how to deepen the work for yourselves and for your clients, through specific hands-on help. Because the Matwork doesn’t have the benefit of the apparatus for support and feedback, I will teach you how to use your hands to give your client similar feedback. Participants will be able to experience the system from the perspective of both teacher and student by partnering to experience the tactile cueing. Come prepared, work hard, sweat and touch and be touched.
Pandiculation Pilates Mat (2 hours)
Feel incredible while improving your Pilates practice! Preventing the build-up of muscular tension is critical to healthy movement but releasing that tension doesn’t happen the way you might think. In this workshop, Brooke will teach you how to call upon your body’s natural pandicular response, during a mat workout, to restore and/or gain more control over your muscles while resetting the level of tension in your muscles. Learn why Joe Pilates called for this action from the body.
