APPI Equipment Level 3 - Spinal Articulation & Stretching

$764.50 inc. GST

The extreme versatility of the large Pilates equipment really comes into play during APPI Equipment Level 3 which explores articulation and stretching.  During this course, you will build upon fundamental movements taught on Equipment Levels 1 and Equipment Level 2. The large Pilates equipment can offer fantastic options for your patients to begin to increase range of motion in a safe and progressive manner.  Imagination is the only limitation to the possible repertoire.  Using the resistance of the springs to support the movement, learn how to modify the traditional exercises to safer options for the clinical environment.  We know we need our clients to move, but we also know after injury there can be a lot of apprehensions. Using the equipment can really give your clients the confidence they need to progressively move beyond uniplanar movements, an important consideration when attempting to prepare the body to cope with normal and sometimes unpredictable daily movement.

APPI Equipment Level 3 includes flexion, extension, rotation and lateral flexion based movements as well as combined movements and stretches for the reformer, cadillac, split pedal chair and arc barrels are taught and practised. Participants build upon the foundations gained during Equipment Level 1 & Equipment Level 2 courses, learning a further twenty-four movements through observation, self-practice and practice teaching.

 

The clinical application of all movements is discussed throughout the teaching and also through a presenter-led workshop in clinical application. Case studies are reviewed and participants have the opportunity to design and discuss their own treatment plans. Visual imagery for fluid spinal movement aims to assist participants to develop their cueing and facilitation skills.

Equipment Level 4 - Progressions and planning is the final course in the APPI Pilates Equipment Certification.
