    Study Notes

    Joseph Pilates Background

    • His passion for movement was inspired by his parents' healthy lifestyles and observations of animals in nature.

    Pilates Equipment

    Misconceptions about Pilates

    • Pilates did not always refer to his method as "Pilates"; he originally called it "Contrology".
    • Joseph Pilates did not die of natural causes in the late 90s.

    SOAP Methodology

    • The "O" in SOAP stands for "Objective".
    • An effective way to elicit objective responses is asking clients to rate their discomfort on a scale of 1-10.
    • The "P" in SOAP must detail the plan, including exercises, apparatus, repetitions, and modifications.

    Client Assessment

    • Regular assessments and reassessments of clients are necessary for safe cueing.
    • It is the studio management's responsibility to ensure that equipment is safe and well-maintained.

    Classical Pilates Moves

    • The first five classical mat moves include: Hundred, Roll Up, Roll Over, One Leg Circle, Rolling Like a Ball.
    • Clients need to master "Rolling Like a Ball" before attempting the Crab move.

    Class Structure

    • Class movements should ideally progress through: Flexion, Extension, Lateral Rotation, Transverse Rotation.

    Equipment and Class Considerations

    • Maintaining a neutral pelvis is crucial during the chest lift.
