Lets take Spring – In a seasonal Pilates class during the season of spring
the muscular focus is on the Pectoralis Major – Rhomboids – Anterior Deltoid
and the Popliteus. In Oriental Medicine research has proven that there is a
relationship between our muscles and our major organs and that all of our emotions
are housed within these organs and therefore within the related muscle groups….The
organ relationship for the muscles in Spring are the Gallbladder and Liver.
Seasonal pilates recognises both the muscular need in spring as well as the
organ energy need and we do this by stretching and strengthening the muscles
and energy pathways of the season…..
We can all associate the emotion of happiness with our heart and anxiousness
with our bladder so it makes sense that if a muscle is weakened by trauma or
bad posture then the related organ will also be affected…and this will cause
a psychological change within the body as well as a physical one.
Here are the 5 Seasons and 5 Elements throughout the year
Todays class is based on Spring.
So the exercises focus on the muscles mentioned above and the energy pathways
of the Gallbladder and the Liver
Seasonal Pilates can alter the state of your mind as well as the state of your
body…..for further information on Seasonal Pilates Workshops, please pick
up a Seasonal Workshop card from the Modern Pilates desk or contact me on the
seasonal pilates address below.

Thank you for attending this session!
We understood when putting the subject on the timetable we would only be attracting a small number of of delegates. Lets face it, it’s a big step when thinking about changing or adding to your career.
So now I have you in the room I am going to be controversial! I used to be able to say if you’re serious about teaching Pilates make sure you go on a course that gives you a level three qualification. However, these days there are many good level three courses but there are also some that well – cut a few corners. This said I don’t mean to say some are good and some are bad! Just different. I will leave it up to you to do your homework and see what type of training is going to be best for you.
This is my sales pitch or lack of sales pitch:
Every one of you will have a different reason for being here. Remember one training provider is not right or wrong, they are all just different.
Research and think about what will work best for your short or long term goals.
Here are a few hints:
Ask the training provider:
It is important you get a qualification that is on the National Framework, or your insurance may be compromised. Does the cost of the course include everything you need or do you have to pay extra for say manuals or course books?
Look at the time frame of the whole course. Do you think they can get through what you want to learn in the amount of days given? How many hours are contact hours and how many self study? How do you learn best? Which style would be better for you?
Ask teachers who have trained with various organisations about their experience etc. Personal recommendations are always best!
Many Thanks and over to Annie for the practical session.

1. Pilates work on the floor isn’t necessarily functional, we spend much of our lives standing. Those muscles that are involved in standing and walking need to be strengthened.
2. Bone loading. Floor-based mat work does not involve bone loading. Bone loss begins after the age of thirty, and bone loss can be slowed down through bone loading and standing Pilates. This is particularly important for the older members of your class, indeed at least forty percent of the class should be standing when targeting that particular group. This of course needs to be balanced with keeping class engaged and ensuring that they are aware of the importance of standing work in combating bone loss.
A dvd that deals specifically with Standing Pilates and features Sheila can be found at trainingontour.com.
Training for exericise with specific age groups can be found with laterlifetraining.co.uk
