This workshop includes visual handouts and some video references to further your understanding of how incorporating these organs into your teaching practice can open up new avenues of inner awareness, alignment, and easeful movement.Allie covers a myriad of concepts and thoroughly explores the importance of a whole-body approach to movement, from the inside out.

Great course!

Lori R

I really enjoyed thinking of the organs supporting us and moving around them to facilitate transion.

James B

This workshop opened a novel (for me) connection between the role our organs, through support and expression, help initiate movement patterns in teaching pilates. It is often difficult to get the student to understand what they are feeling in a particular movement and the information on the role of our organs in this process is helpful.

Leah R

Thank you so very much!i love the connectivity between the anatomy/science of the heart and lungs and the somatic experience of the systems within the body. great way to initiate movement. I also love the idea of allowing clients to be "within the zip code". this idea promotes a positive experience especially in challenging exercises

Caroline B

Thank you, I really appreciate how you bring the physicality to another dimension, it has a scent for me of Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen's work relating to the emotional colour of our organs. It makes our Pilates class so much more, it opens up to where I am keen on going myself. Thank you from the rolling of my heart :-)Caroline

Allie Greene

Hi Caroline, Thanks so much for your lovely feedback! My teachers are Lisa Clark (Senior BMC teacher an Program Director) and Bonnie! I also bring in other things but the foundation of my work is BMC! I love that you know Bonnie.

Megan M

Stacy B

Nice workshop, really liked the Cadillac work and got some good ideas.

Mary Sue C

Allie's presentation style was smooth and easy to listen to. The somatic addition to Pilates suits my sensibilities. My favorite line was "alignment is a zip code and not a destination"!

Allie Greene

Thank you Mary Sue! Sounds like our sensibilities are a good match!

Jean L

Allie - Thank you for this heartfelt workshop. It is obvious that your love for movement and human beings has led you to an elegant path. This box does not allow me enough keystrokes to discuss, so I will be sending you a note of appreciation on Instagram or your email address. With Gratitude...

Allie Greene

Shari, your words actually made me emotional. What I do and how I try to do it is an extension of who i am and how i hope to be the change. To know that someone sees that means so much.
