Alignment Academy Masterclass 2

Contrology

Module 2

Contrology


Classical repertoire, or Contrology as named by Joseph Pilates, is often misconstrued as outdated, unadaptable or unnecessary in the contemporary Pilates scene. This is far from the truth, and what the Contrology module aims to conquer. You will complete this session with a renewed sense of wisdom and wonder for Pilates, how to approach it and how to teach it to others. Learn where many of your contemporary favourites came from, master your self practise and attain new acumen to integrate Joe’s original work into your classes.

“Contrology develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit.”

— Joseph Pilates

  • Begin by discussing the original order of exercises, what this means today and Vic’s tips and tricks on how to adjust it. Discover the origins of many contemporary favourites and how the repertoire has manifested into what it is today.

    The session also begins with a classical-style class.

  • Practise and workshop the repertoire on your body. Victoria will assist you to iron out any challenges and work in groups to better teach and train your eye.

  • Unpack each of the exercises and learn how to 1. regress 2. progress and 3. integrate them into you regular class/teaching practise with sophistication and ease.
