The Prenatal Pilates Workshop goes beyond contraindications with an in-depth explanation of the physiological changes that occur during the different phases of pregnancy and how to best support those changes through Pilates and movement. We will explore the common pathologies that occur during pregnancy, postural changes, precautions, review deep core anatomy and how to utilize deep core training to help support the changing body during pregnancy. Workshop attendees will learn exercises and programming for mat, Reformer, and other apparatuses that best suit people through the various phases of pregnancy, how to modify classical exercises, and how to help clients prevent pelvic floor dysfunction, diastasis recti, and other common pregnancy-related issues.
