A refined exploration of strength, control, and vertical movement, this training introduces the Stability Chair as one of the most challenging and rewarding apparatuses in the Pilates system. Compact in size yet powerful in effect, it asks for balance, coordination, unilateral strength, and deep core integration in a direct relationship to gravity.
Designed for certified Pilates instructors, this 18-hour Chair Teacher Training offers a clear, safe, and precise pathway into apparatus work. At This Way Movement, the Chair is taught through a blend of contemporary biomechanics and classical repertoire, creating a learning experience that is both technically sound and intuitively developed.
