COMMUNICATION ASSIGNMENT

Q:  Let’s talk about breathing. There is much talk about the Breath in Pilates.  

1. Respond to a new client who wants to work on her breathing and tells you that she heard that Pilates is good for her to learn to breathe better. Include anything you might say to prepare her for what to expect in your session together.  

PROGRAM DESIGN ASSIGNMENT

Q. Theme Sheets!

Breathe!  Design a class or session this week on the theme of Breath.  Be certain to explain why you chose certain exercises and HOW this will work to reinforce your theme.

get ready to test out - tip

Real hands on is so much more than where you place them and what they are communicating. It’s also how they arrive and depart. Use the “ease in and out” method to coerce your clients into deeper positions and avoid any jarring or sudden movement particularly when cueing out of the clients sightline.

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!
