PF: Polestar Pilates Principles of Movement

This non-apparatus course introduces current research in movement science, motor learning, bioenergetics, and communication science to instructional practice through six basic movement principles which are used throughout the Polestar Pilates curriculum. You will integrate critical reasoning skills with these principles to facilitate movement assessment and intervention within the Pilates environment.

Tactile, verbal and imagery cues are integrated with the Pilates exercises.

This course introduces Polestar Pilates Screening™, which includes postural evaluation and functional testing, to prepare you to properly design a plan to implement Pilates exercises for clients. This unique component significantly enhances decision-making skills as a Pilates practitioner. For those individuals taking more than one fitness series, this course is required only once.
