From apparatus to mat - relating the two sides of the system
We are taught that the mat work is the basis for Joseph Pilates system of exercise, that the apparatus and the exercises on them were developed to inform your body more fully so that the mat exercises could be achieved. However, there is often confusion in how they relate, especially since most apparatus exercises are not direct translations of their mat counterparts. In this workshop, we’ll look at a sampling of mat exercises, break them down, and find how we can use the rest of the system to inform those exercises. We’ll also look at common pitfalls that happen when mat exercises are attempted on the apparatus directly.
