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. 

In this video Cat Standing Front on the split pedal chair is demonstrated - one of the spinal articulation exercises covered during APPI Pilates Equipment Level 3

- Great group of people, and very high knowledgable presenter.

- Fantastic presenter - really sound understanding of all concepts, able to keep simple and concise at the same time!
