PIRIFORIS: FRIEND OR FOE?

Let’s Decode The Deep Hip!

Is the piriformis your client’s secret stabilizing superherhero; or the sneaky problem behind that stubborn glute pain? Come find out and get your questions answered with Matt McCullogh’s triumphant RETURN to Level Up MVMT. You LOVED him with Active Arthritis, and he’s BACK to dazzle us again.

In this dynamic, anatomy-rich (but totally digestible!) Classtermind, we’ll explore the piriformis muscle through the lens of Pilates movement. Designed specifically for Pilates and movement instructors, this session will clarify the piriformis’ dual personality: powerful hip stabilizer and potential troublemaker.

Let’s unpack how the piriformis behaves in different hip positions, how it influences sacral mechanics, and why it often gets blamed for pain that may not even be its fault. Through practical movement exercises, cueing strategies, and programming ideas, you’ll leave confident in identifying when to strengthen, when to release, and when to look elsewhere.

Expect “aha!” moments, myth-busting, and movement experiences you can immediately apply in private sessions or group classes. Because sometimes the piriformis isn’t the villain of the story, it’s just doing the job no one else showed up to do.

SEPARATE & CONNECT!

Let’s dive into the awesome opportunity to train one side at a time. This workshop explores how unilateral Reformer exercises can reveal hidden imbalances, challenge coordination, and unlock smarter movement strategies. Through thoughtfully layered progressions, you’ll learn how to build strength, stability, and control without overwhelming your clients (or yourself). Expect “aha” moments and a whole new appreciation for the power of asymmetry WITH purpose.

Perfect for all-level instructors looking to deepen their programming skills, this session blends biomechanics, creativity, and practical teaching tools you can use immediately in both group and private settings.
