It’s time for a trauma-informed revolution in Pilates.
Chronic tension, pain, rigidity, inhibition & immobility are all outputs of the central nervous system shaped by unresolved trauma, chronic stress & unconscious protective patterns.
With around 90% of our movement system operating outside our conscious control, it makes sense that some areas of the body remain tense, numb, disconnected & immobilised no matter how hard we try to consciously stretch or strengthen them.
This is where spontaneous shaking & ‘autogenic’ movement come in – as the human body’s in-built mechanism for reorganising tension, movement, pain & trauma patterns below the level of our conscious control.
In this 30-minute webinar you’ll learn why trauma-informed movement matters, how the body naturally discharges stress & tension through spontaneous movement, & how the integration of autogenic movement into Pilates supports & enhances its benefits while optimising the wellbeing of Instructors as well.
