Athletic Movement with the Pilates Chair and Foam Roller
Presented by Sheri Long
Athletes bring strength, drive, and determination to every session—but with that comes physical imbalances, tightness, and often a limited mind-body connection. Whether you're working with professional or amateur athletes, Pilates instructors must understand how to meet their unique needs and help them tap into their full potential.
In this hands-on workshop, we’ll focus on how to support athletic clients using the Pilates Chair and foam roller. You’ll learn how to identify common patterns and imbalances caused by repetitive training and discover how these versatile tools can enhance strength, stability, mobility, and proprioception.
Sheri will guide you through both traditional and creative Chair-based exercises, along with dynamic foam roller applications, to help your athletic clients move better, recover faster, and perform at their best. You’ll leave with practical tools and strategies you can integrate into sessions right away.
Athletic Movement with the Reformer
Presented by Sheri Long
Athletes are a unique population—physically powerful, mentally driven, and relentlessly focused. But with their dedication to sport comes the potential for muscular imbalances, movement compensations, and tight patterns from repetitive training. Whether you're working with professional or recreational athletes, understanding how to support their performance and recovery is essential.
In this dynamic workshop, we’ll dive into the specific physical and mental characteristics of athletic clients. We’ll explore their goals, assess their needs, and identify how Pilates on the Reformer can be strategically used to enhance strength, flexibility, balance, and body awareness.
Sheri will demonstrate and teach both classical and creative Reformer-based exercises, along with athletic-focused variations to address common imbalances, support injury prevention, and boost overall performance. Leave with a toolbox of movement ideas you can immediately apply to your sessions with athletic clients.
