Work the System Workshop

A single day workshop offered on the following days: Sundays Oct. 11th, Nov. 8th and Nov. 22nd from 2-6pm

If we understand Joseph Pilates' original method correctly he designed the work to be a system.  Clients worked on various different pieces of apparatus to increase their strength and understanding of the work, all leading to a better, cleaner mat practice.  In this workshop participants will experience the power of the method, as a whole, in one day. Four 50 minute classes on the Chair, Tower, Mat (with Spine Corrector) and Reformer. Each apparatus offering its unique insights towards the common goal of uniform development. This rigorous and fun workshop will challenge participants' endurance and capacity.

- Workshop limited to 4 participants

- We are anticipating a great deal of interest in this offering, you may be contacted with alternate date possibilities so we can accommodate everyone in the right level of group.

- Recommended for those who do Pilates at least twice a week and are (largely) injury free.

Pilates Repertoire in Depth

November 14th and 15th 2:30-5:00pm

Day 1 — The Teaser: A Journey Through the Pilates System

The Pilates repertoire is connected by a shared language of movement principles, patterns, and relationships. The Teaser is a perfect example, linking foundational concepts to more advanced movement while developing strength, control, coordination, balance, and awareness.

We’ll explore the Teaser not simply as an exercise, but as a movement concept woven throughout the Pilates system.

Day 2 — Rowing Series: Continuing the Journey

On Day Two, we continue with the Rowing Series, exploring spinal mobility, shoulder organization, core connection, coordination, and flow.

Looking beyond the choreography, we’ll uncover the principles that connect Rowing to the wider Pilates repertoire—and to our teaching.

Come explore, connect, and move through the Pilates system!

This workshop is best suited for intermediate and advanced practitioners and teachers. Each day will begin with a Mat Session to warm up, followed by a detailed breakdown of every exercise, including a Q&A session.

We look forward to moving and learning together!
