About Full Body Integration:
You've had a lot of continuing education, but none of it...none of it is comprehensive. I mean...you get a lot of information, but it's all bits and pieces. Are you able to apply it all? Really? While the entire Pilates Teacher Intensives is to rectify this missing an essential element in Pilates continuing education, this first 3-day seminar "Full Body Integration" must be the basis for all that we do. What is your perspective on the human body? How much does it align with how the human body really works? How do you tie it all together with a true education and apply it to your actual teaching of Pilates? How do you take your education and make it all make sense?
In "Full Body Integration" you will learn the modern Biomechanics, Biodynamics and Biotensegrity. Biodynamics is Shari Berkowitz’s theory of human physical movement and dysfunction. Shari is a biomechanist in addition to being a Pilates Teacher of Teachers. She spends the majority of her time, in fact, developing ways for people to really understand how the body works at its best and help people return to their most able states why dysfunction occurs. Pilates is an exceptional method to return a body to health...but only if we understand how the body works and make sure what we're doing in Pilates coordinates with that.
In this seminar will explore and study:
Biomechanics, Biodynamics (by Shari Berkowitz) and Biotensegrity (by Dr. Stephen Levin)
Functional Anatomy of The Human Body with specific detail on:
The Spine
The Pelvis
The Shoulder Girdle
The Legs
and...
we tie it all together...because we're not just bits and pieces...we are organisms.
Plus we’ll tie it all into Pilates!
Apply this knowledge and actions to Pilates Teaching...no matter what style you teach.
Your perspective is everything. Please let me guide your education and understanding with "Full Body Integration".
This is seminar is open to all teachers of all styles.

Though this is a stand-alone seminar, it is the first seminar of The Vertical Workshop Pilates Teacher Intensives (“Intensives”)...however, it is open to all teachers even if you're not in the full program. The full program is listed at the bottom of the Continuing Education section of this website. The information packet is there and here: PTI Info Packet 2021
I will return once every 4-5 months to deliver each seminar of this program: The Pilates Teacher Intensives!
Please join in for a remarkable experience!
