Dynamic Armchair Pilates™

If restricted mobility does not permit a client to lie on the floor or other equipment, this workshop, developed by the Merrithew™ team, shows exercise variations in an upright, seated position. In addition to exploring movements incorporating the gentle resistance of the STOTT PILATES® Flex-Band® exerciser, participants work through a number of exercises performed in a supported standing position to help develop balance and coordination.
