This workshop revolves around one of the most effective and powerful teaching tools in the Contemporary Pilates Method... tactile cueing, or in other words teaching through touch, as well as the use of kinaesthetic instructions.

• Kinaesthetic instructions illustrate kinaesthesia, the sense of a movement and awareness of space. The instructions impact deep sensibility and can change movement quality, proprioception and intention dramatically. This component will be put into practice.

• Purposeful tactile cueing with a clear intention can drastically improve posture, body position and movement patterns and can optimise a participant’s body awareness, proprioception and movement efficiency. This workshop will practically implement specific tactile cues using fundamental Contemporary Pilates exercises.
