"My philosophy within this course is to give teachers the best experience within the course and the confidence to teach one and one and groups up to 12. I believe that being informed with clear knowledge and straight forward information is more helpful than making pilates out to be a complex and mystical exercise form. What you learn you will be able to apply with confidence.
The foundation for Pilates for me is deep activation of the pelvic floor and transversus abdominis. We go into this anatomy and function and also cueing within the course.
My personal experience with pilates is that it has helped me to heal a serious knee injury and disc bulge without then requiring surgery. During theses period of rehabilitation, I was able to keep my physique and positive disposition with the help of pilates.
I also love teaching teachers, and within the course you will be nurtured, encouraged, and inspired." Louise Taube
