MVe Fitness Chair and Reformer Instructor Workshops
The Level I on-site instructor workshop component is designed to prepare your instructors to lead predesigned group chair and reformer workouts, and complements the professional knowledge, skills and abilities in which they have honed while teaching group exercise and/or personal training. Movement patterns and exercise sequencing are based on the Peak Pilates Perfect Ten Exercises that provide an excellent, well-balanced foundation for mastering pilates exercises and workouts. Three predesigned classes are reviewed in-depth, as well as instruction of modifications and variations to accommodate all participants. The workshops are supported with comprehensive educational materials, including visually rich manuals and instructor education DVDs detailing over 100 exercises.
Unique to Peak Pilates, we also include an on-site follow up visit, occuring 4-6 weeks following your instructor training workshop, that is designed to provide additional training to your staff, review exercises and workouts with your instructors, answer instructor questions and offer implementation support — all at no additional charge. On-going support is also available through the Peak Pilates Online Community, where you can download audio and video podcasts and exercises, post questions in the forum and connect with other MVe facilities around the globe.
