Last weekend the DPTP Apprentice 2s completed Weekend 3 of the Drexel Pilates Training Program. In Weekend 3, Apprentices learn Pilates Tower and Spine Corrector exercises and the basics of tactile cuing, imagetic cuing and keys to crafting a mixed equipment Pilates session. This was our first training weekend in the new space and we loved it!

New class at Drexel Pilates!

Pilates for Bone Density
Mondays, 1:30-2:20 PM with Kalila

This class focuses on weight bearing Pilates exercises and champions spring resistance on the tower, reformer, and chair to healthily load your bones. We will practice engaging the center in a neutral spine, limit end-range spinal flexion, and focus on strengthening the spinal extensors and the lateral stabilizers that support balance. This class is designed particularly to practice safe Pilates for people with bone density concerns such as osteoporosis and osteopenia. All clients are welcome.

*The exercises in this class have been carefully selected based on peer reviewed studies about the impact of Pilates on Bone Mineral Density and eliminates exercises that are contra-indicated for people with osteoporosis and osteopenia.
