Sunday, September 15th
9:00 - 10:30a PT (Los Angeles)

This is IT! An incredible opportunity to join THE Pilates and movement pioneer of curiosity, Cara Reeser. Cara will help us gain clarity on where our head is at in space, how it relates to almost every exercise we do in Pilates (and life), and why we need to understand its importance and relationship to our “tail” or pelvis. In this Classtermind, you’ll learn skill building in your practice so you can teach these building blocks to your clients and classes, which will:

1️⃣ Navigate best practices for carrying 11 lbs. of weight on the top of our body.

2️⃣ Comprehend and demystify the importance of cervical extension (and flexion).

3️⃣ Normalize the concept of tension and when it is needed.

4️⃣ Understand where to drive each exercise from and how it creates a more biomechanically global experience.

5️⃣ Express the importance of ease and flow with selective control.

This Classtermind is part lecture AND part movement, so come ready to learn AND FEEL the results in your body so you can take these concepts back to the studio.

Equipment Recommended: Yoga Blocks, Theraband, Hand Towel

The last Classtermind of 2023 is with the Rockstar: Erika Quest! This Sunday - link in cooments.
From Erika:
This is it! In just one week, we are getting brainy in our Classtermind with yours truly. Come learn fresh ways to share the neuroplasticity love in your movement sessions and impact neurogenesis with your clients and classes. An often times forgotten area of our body, yes, our brain oxidizes just like our joints and soft tissue. I'll be sharing strategies I've used with my clients of all ages for years to help freshen up and build neural pathways via brain games.

These are concepts and tools I've used with my traumatic brain injury, Dementia, and Alzheimer's clients, as well as just having a little "brain agility" fun in classes. As a reminder, the last time yours truly did a Classtermind, it was WAY back in early 2022 with Tom McCook on Healthy Aging Strategies. This will be our final Classtermind of 2023, and this was slated to be a part of my 4-part 4B system on Active Aging called BRAIN, BODY, BALANCE & BUDDY. Come join in the fun and learn all about the importance of neurogenesis at ANY age and for all types of clients. We'll even do some work and drills on reaction time, which will tie back to improved balance training strategies as well.

You get all of the goodies you always do with this one. Session handout, full recording indefinitely (if you don't make it live or want to re-watch), and 90 minutes with ME!
