This video demonstrates the standing warm-up sequence from the APPI's Matwork Level 2.

Warming up in standing is a great way to improve your client’s postural awareness and help them make functional connections to your mat-based Pilates. You’ll note the model’s maintenance of her standing posture in the sagittal plain and encouragement of this will not only produce correct muscle activation but it will also make this an effective exercise for pain and dysfunction.

A full repertoire of warm up and cool down movements that can be incorporated into group classes are covered on the course.
