Mat I Seminar
Full Information and Application: https://www.theverticalworkshop.com/comprehensive-teacher-training
Though the Mat I Seminar is the first seminar of the entire program, if you are not ready to commit to the entire “thing,” you can take just the Mat I Seminar and decide after that weekend.
In this seminar, you will learn to teach the classical mat work that will be appropriate for First-Timer, Beginner and some Intermediate classes. 20 Exercises that make for a remarkable mat class. Additionally, you will learn the transitions from one exercise to another and the modifications for each exercise. (Most of our clients have some sort of ache or pain…modifications and adaptations are essential.)
Beyond the exercises, you learn the technique of teaching that makes The Vertical Workshop teachers so successful. Well beyond any other program, The Vertical Workshop provides you with teaching tools that give you the opportunity to help achieve your goals for teaching and your clients’ goals for doing Pilates.
The Mat I Seminar is 16 hours of work on exercises, anatomy, teaching tools. You will have many opportunities to do the exercises and practice teach.
The exam is built into the weekend. What we seek is that you progress from the first moment until the last of the weekend and are able to leave the weekend ready to practice teach until you are ready to teach a true class. You will have all the skills needed along with methods of self-assessment to move forward strongly!
