Highly recommended!
Highly recommend to anyone who is training to be a Pilates Instructor. I only wish I had done this before my course, as it would have been hugely helpful. Very informative and broke down what is an area I find quite intimidating, into manageable and digestible chunks. I learnt a huge amount and am very thankful that I can now come back to the videos as many times as I want.
Very comprhensive
Even though I have been a Pilates Instructor & Personal Trainer for many years I often felt there were gaps in some of my anatomy and biomechanics knowledge. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and feel it will give me that extra bit of confidence especially when dealing with imbalances, compensations etc. It will be a valuable resource to return to. Many thanks ⭐️
Overview
As a movement professional, it is vital that you have a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics and of the human body. However, just knowing the names of muscles and where they are is not sufficient if you teach movement and exercise. You need a deeper understanding of how the muscles relate to one another and how they react on an individual. Each client can be viewed as a unique puzzle, and through a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy, all the parts of their puzzle will fit together perfectly. You are about to embark on a journey of anatomical discovery, which will enable you to teach with confidence. We are going to jump right back to the basics and start unfolding the amazing world of the human body in movement.
Objectives
This course will teach you, the professional, about the Musculoskeletal system and how this system responds when moving. You will learn:
- all the necessary anatomical terminology that will help you understand literature and referral letters from health care professionals
- how to analyse movement on an anatomical level
- how to teach classes that embrace a better understanding of your client’s bodies as they move
- compensations due to muscular restrictions
- the muscles names and the movements that they produce as well as their antagonists
- how the agonists and antagonists relate to one another and how their response can be different for different individuals
- how to apply your knowledge to modify exercises for a more client specific approach
- how anatomy and biomechanical knowledge will change your entire perspective on teaching movement with purpose
