Modular / Intensive: 32 lecture hours, 40 practice hours, 50 case study hours.

Pre-requisite: Matwork 1 and 2
This programme is designed to introduce you to the original Pilates group matwork repertoire of 34 movements along with a few extras and numerous modifications. The goal is to create a larger body of work to enable you to move your Mat 1 clients toward a more challenging repertoire whilst still adhering to the Pilates Institute Method protocol.

The first two days you will analyse the movements, transition, appropriate stretching and class formatting. Each movement will be categorised allowing us to more easily design the class format for the appropriate level of the group. The second two days involves completion of the movements, a summary of previous movements and fine tuneing of observation skills within both your own and a classes quality of movement. This is not a test; the aim is to help you understand what areas of your own physicality and teaching practice need attention.
