About this ebook

Fitness Professionals: Pilates Method is the first book to be written for the specific needs of Pilates instructors.

Pilates is one of the most popular - and fastest growing - group exercise classes in the UK. For many years it has not been possible to write a definitive book for instructors as there have been many different schools of teaching. However, these have recently been brought together under a single national assessment, meaning that all Pilates instructors must have the same foundation knowledge.

This book will cover these foundation subjects, which include:
- anatomy
- the key principles of Pilates
- assessment
- structuring a session
- teaching a session

Written to the requirements of the national standards, this book contains everything a new teacher needs to know in order to pass the national qualification and is an ideal reference for experienced instructors.
