Session
Description

Currently, there is a lot of interest in the original Pilates Matwork 1-34, as portrayed in Joseph Pilates’ landmark book - "Return to Life".  However, classical mat Pilates is the MOST difficult to teach and perform, especially in a mixed-level group setting! This Workshop features Jillian’s signature pre-Pilates exercises, the B.E.A.M. Fundamentals (as featured in her book - "PILATES BASICS"). You will find that Jillian’s B.E.A.M. Fundamentals serve as an important gateway to access the true essence of the classical mat Pilates in this workshop. Modifications of the classical mat exercises will be presented, and the final hour of the workshop will feature a classical mat class, where you work at your own level!

Key Takeaways
  • Explore Joseph Pilates’ original matwork (1–34) and understand why it is challenging to teach in mixed-level settings.
  • Use Jillian’s B.E.A.M. Fundamentals (from "PILATES BASICS") as a foundation for bridging into classical matwork.
  • Gain experience with modifications and finish with a guided classical mat class working at your own level.
