Level 3: Pilates Cadillac, Chair, Springboard & Barrels

270 hours

In this final step of the full Comprehensive program, this 4 module program builds on functional movement and anatomical relationships in the lumbopelvic complex, the four regions of the spine and the shoulder complex. You learn how to use all four pieces of equipment ⎯ Cadillac, chair, springboard and barrels ⎯ for a full range of populations, from post-rehab clients to those looking for athletic fine-tuning. By clustering the different pieces of equipment together, you learn how to determine the best course of action based on the needs of your clients. Case studies test your ability to identify movement issues and decide the best practices to address them. The program focuses on teaching methodologies appropriate for one-on-one sessions and group classes so you feel confident working in both situations.
