Lisa is a Physiotherapist, Pilates Practitioner and Educator. She has trained in Dr L.J. Lee’s Thoracic Ring Approach™ (2014) and is a Certified ConnectTherapy™ Practitioner (2019)  The knowledge and skills from this    learning journey has transformed her Physiotherapy and has also filtered through to her Pilates teaching.  Pilates teachers that have worked with Lisa have been coached on how to pay more attention to and to devise Pilates programs with the thoracic region in mind.

In  “Put a Spring in your Thorax”, Lisa will take you on a journey of discovery of the thorax and applies this knowledge to the Pilates environment.

The thorax is an important region of the human body. It is under- researched and poorly understood in medicine, allied health and movement therapies. This region plays an important role in human movement, load transfer, shock absorption, nervous system homeostasis and breathing. A better understanding of the thorax will empower the the Pilates movement professional with skills to facilitate the movement journey of many more of their current and future clients. These workshops are an immersion into the thorax via anatomy tutorials, case studies, discussion, Pilates repertoire programming guidance and home projects.

This course is delivered over six live modules. Each module is a 2 hour online session.

Sessions will be recorded if you are unable to attend on the day.

Private discussion forum for workshop participants.

This complete workshop series has been approved for 12 PDPs with the PAA and 12 CECs with the APMA.
