6 SESSION INFO Welcome to Pilates at Ace Sports Clinic Congratulations you've taken the first positive step to developing a stronger, more flexible body. To help you achieve your goals we offer the following services. INITIAL ASSESSMENT: The initial Pilates assessment is a 60 min individual session with a qualified professional. The Instructor will perform a full Physiological and Functional screening including a Postural assessment. The assessment is to ensure that Pilates is appropriate to your condition and to assist us to tailor a program to suit your particular needs. INDIVIDUAL SESSIONS: During these sessions you will develop your technique and your repertoire of exercises under the close supervision of the Instructor. It is important to feel comfortable and confident with the technique and exercises in order to reap the full benefits from each exercise and avoid injury. STUDIO ETIQUETTE: It is very important to inform your instructor if you have any change in your health status e.g pregnancy, or if you have experienced any back, joint, nerve/muscular pain since your last visit at the clinic. Please bring any relevant medical documents or imaging related to your injuries/ conditions to your initial visit so we are aware and can make copies for your file. Please wear grip socks/ socks during your work out for hygiene reasons. Please leave boots at the front door. Please give 24 hours notice if you are unable to make your appointment, or our late cancellation policy will apply.
7 LEARNING PILATES COMPETENCIES Pilates programs target the deep postural muscles to build strength from within by stabilising the torso, including the pelvis and shoulder, as you work towards optimal strength and flexibility for your arms and legs. Consciously using mind and body together you will develop body awareness and control. The 5 basic principles work together to create intelligent exercise that is both safe and effective. It will enhance your skill level and mindfulness and allow you to be in control of executing each exercise in order to reap the full benefits. There are 4 competencies to achieving Mastery. You will likely go through ALL of the following experiences at times and not necessarily in a linear way. Understand that Pilates is a process of mastering movement You will not ARRIVE on the first day. It will take a few sessions to begin to change your movement habits and likely weeks or months to make lasting changes. We are here to help you keep your commitment, to make it fun and challenging. UNCONSCIOULSY INCOMPETENT (You do not know, what you don't know how to do) > CONSCIOUSLY INCOMPETENT (You are aware of what you don't know how to do) > CONSCIOUSLY COMPETENT (You know what is required and how to do the task) > MASTERY: UNCONSCIOUSLY COMPETENT (You no longer have to think of the steps to correctly execute a task).
8 THE 5 PRINCIPLES 1.Breathing An effective breathing pattern: - Encourages oxygenation in the blood. - Helps relax muscles and avoid unnecessary tension. - Focuses the mind and allows concentration. Exhaling deeply can help to activate the Pelvic Floor and Deep Abdominal Muscles. Inhale through your nose, exhale through your mouth with pursed lips. Breath out into the backs and sides of your ribcage (lateral diaphragmatic breathing (Like a balloon filling up) You inhale to prepare to move, or to extend the spine. You exhale to flex the spine. Eg Ab prep or half roll back; to move a limb (knee lift) and to assist the rib to hip connection. Breathing pattern occasionally changes with choreography or to increase the challenge of a particular movement.
9 THE 5 PRINCIPLES 2. Pelvic Alignment Neutral Spine: The pelvis is in slight posterior pelvic tilt. Imprint is used to make open chain exercises safe until you get strong enough to hold neutral spine with both feet off the floor. To Find Neutral: When lying on your back place the heel of your hand on the hip bones with fingers pointing to the pubic bone. This triangle should be parallel to the ground, Think "Heavy tail bone. Neutral to Imprint: Inhale: Maintain Neutral Spine 3. Rib Cage Placement The abdominal wall attaches to the lower ribs. The abdominal muscles must often be recruited to maintain the ribcage and, indirectly, the thoracic spine in good alignment. Often the ribcage will tend to lift up when lying on your back or deviate forward from a sitting position. Pay particular attention during inhalation or while lifting your arm overhead. When lying on your back maintain a sense of the weight of the ribs resting gently on the mat. Exhale: Contract Abdominals to bring your hip bones towards your rib cage a small distance (you may think of it as gently squeezing a marshmallow with your lower back as you tilt). Inhale: Maintain imprinted position. Exhale: Return to Neutral. At the front feel that your lower ribs are drawing gently towards your pelvis and not "popping" forwards especially as you bring your arms over head. Avoid over depressing the rib cage which can cause de-activation of the Transversus Abdominus.
10 THE 5 PRINCIPLES 4. Scapula Isolation and Stabilisation Stabilising the shoulder blades on the rib cage, is as important as contracting the abdominals during the initiation of every exercise, to avoid the tendency to overwork the upper trapezius and other muscles around the neck and shoulder. Maintain a sense of stability not rigidity. Gently slide the shoulder blades down the back and in toward the spine in a 'V' shape. Shoulders should not be allowed to either round forward or squeeze together toward the spine. A sense of width should be maintained across the front and back of the shoulder girdle. Exercises: Scapula retraction/protraction, elevation/depression, arm circles and arm scissors. 5. Head and Cervical Spine Alignment The cervical spine and shoulder hold its natural curve and the skull should balance directly above the shoulders. Not excessively forward which is a common postural fault. Think of lengthening the back of the neck to nod (not jamming the chin into the chest). This idea of cranio-vertebral flexion would be incorporated anytime the thoracic spine moves. Your head and neck position should continue the line of the thoracic spine. To practice: lying on your back Inhale: Lengthen the back of your neck, leaving your head on the mat. Exhale: Return to neutral.
11 WELCOME TO ACE YOGA What is Yoga? Yoga means union or to merge. It is more than a set of exercises. It is a science to determine the nature of who you are and what you want to be. Yoga is not a religious practice, but a practice employed by those seeking to be at their best. The origins of yoga are believed to have begun in the Himalayas 15,000 years ago. THE ACE DIFFERENCE ACE YOGA Yoga at Ace is delivered as an opportunity for reflection and contemplation. Through correct anatomical breathing techniques we give ourselves a chance to slow down and recalibrate the nervous system for greater mental clarity, enhanced perception and reduced negative stress. By changing the mind we change the chemistry of our body, including our hormones, for improved sleep, growth and repair. IS YOGA FOR ME Yoga can help you with: Stress Management and better sleep Active Sports recovery and flexibility Change Management and life balance Hormone, digestive and breathing function You don't need to be flexible or a "calm personality" to start Yoga
