Cueing Like a Boss on the Small Barrel

 

Presented by Carmela Arias

Take your cueing to the next level with Cueing Like a Boss on the Pilates Small Barrel –  Align, strength, stretch and balance. 

This beginner to intermediate workshop is designed to help Pilates instructors deliver clearer, more effective cues that immediately improve client confidence, balance, and strength on the Barrel.

In this workshop, Carmela focuses on a selected group of Beginner and Intermediate Pilates Small Barrel exercises, breaking down not only the movement, but how to cue each exercise so clients truly feel the work. You’ll explore cueing strategies that support balance, build strength, and improve overall body awareness, while learning how to adapt your language to different bodies and learning styles.

This workshop is standalone. We will cover different exercises and cueing strategies, allowing you to choose the sessions that best support your teaching goals and clients.

Expect practical tools, real-world teaching insights, and those “aha” moments that elevate how you communicate on the Pilates Small Barrel. You’ll leave with sharper language, greater confidence, and a deeper understanding of how effective cueing transforms movement.
