MK Pilates Wunda Chair Course introduces you to the MK Pilates Repertoire on the chair as well as how to introduce the equipment to a new client. The Wunda Chair was created in 1945 by Joseph Pilates, the creator of the Pilates method and was as the first functional home use apparatus, as it is able to convert into a regular chair. Today it is one of the main pieces of equipment to be found in a fully equipped Pilates Equipment Studio and also today you can find group classes being taught on this great piece of equipment.
With the MK Pilates we focus on choosing the best movements for our clients and when you add this equipment to your studio you are offered more movements to choose from. As always when you have chosen your programme its then about teaching the correct execution of the method and recognising the different learning styles of each client.
It is important you understand the Matwork Method of Pilates to really benefit from this programme and part of this course will refresh the foundations of the method.
As we any new piece of equipment your own practice is important and with both our Face to face Blended Courses and Online Distance Course we offer support materials to help you learn.
Training (Distance Learning)
