About This Workshop

MAT VARIATIONS

In this workshop, Anula explores ways of incorporating a variety of props into innovative mat exercises that address how we can use our Pilates skills in new and inventive ways. Emphasis is placed on enhancing proprioception and encouraging ownership of experiencing movement through both instructor and self-guided exploration. Exercises address everything from foot strength and mobility to whole-body connections that will provide a wide variety of options to work with both accomplished athletes as well as older or more beginner-level populations. Over 50 thoughtful, results-oriented variations will be immediately adaptable in classes and private sessions alike.

REFORMER VARIATIONS I

If you are looking to spice up your reformer repertoire, Anula has you covered. In this online Pilates workshop, she teaches over 30 inventive, creative, and expressive exercise variations. These include variations on some traditional reformer exercises plus all-new material.

These exercises range from intermediate to very advanced and are a great way to add a challenge for yourself or your more experienced clients. Anula encourages everyone to do as much or as little of the movement as feels appropriate in their own body and gives you permission to move freely without being constrained by some of our typical misalignment fears.

This fun, funky, challenging sequence is a creative boost for anyone in need of some new teaching material.

REFORMER VARIATIONS II

Taking traditional Pilates exercises and using them as a starting point to layer challenges and advanced movement concepts is what this workshop is all about. In this online Pilates workshop, Anula Maiberg provides a fresh take on lunging, rowing, chest expansion, back bends, knee stretch, and swan to name a few.

She also discusses cueing pointers and ways to approach building a session with the intent of working into more advanced material. Ever the curious and creative mover/observer, Anula brings her client into advanced progressions with humor and clear directives designed to make the movement accessible.
