With Jennifer Gianni
The intent of the Pilates repertoire is not to reach the most advanced form quickly — it is to truly embody every single phase of the exercise with ease, grace, and agility. This can only occur when time and effort has been placed in priming the body for movement.
Release work is the first step in helping your clients into successful core training within the Pilates repertoire. Learn how and why various tightnesses directly lead to compensatory patterning that leaves the body weak, unstable, and vulnerable to injury — and how to help clients break through their typical fitness routine to discover the true depth of their strength.
