Masterclass: Working in Locomotion with Sarah-Louise Warden
New in December!
•
25m
In Pilates classes, we often teach exercises in a static position, which stay close to the mat. However, in the ‘real world’, clients are dynamic creatures that move around. So, what would happen if we started to look at travelling movements with them? Walking, lunging...even moderate jumping and
hopping if they are capable.
This masterclass with Sarah explores short travelling sequences, moving across the room and looking at joint movements and alignment in a more dynamic way.
You do not need any equipment for this class but you do need space to move around!
