Pilates for Postural Imbalances &

Scoliosis - Part II

Once a good foundation has been set in identifying a clients’ spinal rotation, and re-educating them both neurologically & proprioceptively HOW to move, (See Part I above), we are ready to progress to Part II.  Part II of this Workshop taught by Jillian Hessel will focus on exercises taught on the Classic Pilates apparatus that are specially adapted for clients with uneven muscular development, and spinal rotation abnormalities. We will highlight many unilateral exercises that focus on developing strength an & support on the concave side of the curvature, as well as lengthening the short, contracted muscles that pull the spine into abnormal rotation. Finally, we will emphasize de-rotating the curvature in the opposite direction using spiral exercises.
