Max 40 pax – for all levels

Pilates is not a sport and does not replace it, but rather complements it. In this Matwork Pilates session, we will explore how an intelligent approach to movement can help athletes move more efficiently, enhance the quality of their technical performance, and reduce the risk of compensatory patterns and injuries. A session designed as a concrete support for sports performance: from tennis to running, from football to artistic gymnastics. The work starts from the core to improve control, stability, coordination and efficiency of athletic movement. For athletes, coaches and movement professionals who seek quality, not just intensity.

The principles of Pilates remain, to this day, valid supports for teaching methodology. However, they may need to be reconsidered with greater awareness in order to optimise the final outcome of training on the psychophysical well-being of our clients. Through a better understanding of alignment principles and by integrating small adjustments, this workshop will provide insight into how fascial concepts can be applied within the context of Pilates.

This class will analyse the concept of flexibility within the Pilates Matwork repertoire, subsequently focusing on improving joint mobility and muscular elasticity through controlled and mindful movements. Throughout the practice, fluid exercises and targeted stretches will alternate, promoting the release of tension and the harmony of the body, while consistently maintaining attention on breathing and alignment. The objective is to develop functional flexibility, beneficial in everyday life, without forcing the body beyond its limits but rather in full respect of its individual boundaries.
