IN-PERSON SOLD OUT – RECORDING AVAILABLE – Advanced Repertoire Workshop

Explore beyond the familiar and take a deeper dive into the Pilates repertoire.

This workshop creates the opportunity to discover what makes these movements challenging, effective, and rewarding to teach. Through hands-on exploration, we’ll deconstruct the exercises, uncover their movement strategies and nuances, and consider how they can be progressed, modified, and integrated into your practice.

Expand your repertoire, refine your movement skills, and develop a clearer understanding of when, why, and for whom these advanced exercises can be most useful.

PLEASE NOTE: you have to be a Polestar Comprehensive Graduate or current Comprehensive student

This session is part of the two-day Polestar International Intensive with Shelly Power and Christi Idavoy – two amazing international senior Polestar Educators.
