Teaching Pilates in a group setting means working with real bodies—many of which come in with injuries, limitations, or movement patterns that require thoughtful attention.

Join Simone of Gold Lion Pilates and Dr. Maddie McBirney of Evo Performance Therapy for a 2-hour instructor workshop designed to help you confidently teach around common injuries while maintaining the flow of your class.

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll break down the biomechanics behind some of the most common issues seen in Pilates studios and show you how to quickly modify exercises on the reformer in a group setting.

We’ll cover three key areas:

• Shoulder injuries (impingement, instability, rotator cuff)
• Low back considerations including bulging discs
• Hips, knees, and wrists (including joint replacements and sensitivities)

You’ll learn how to:

• Recognize common injury patterns and red flags in class
• Understand the “why” behind movement limitations
• Apply quick, effective modifications without disrupting class flow
• Communicate with clients about injuries before class begins
• Keep your classes safe, supportive, and empowering

This workshop blends clinical insight with real-world Pilates teaching strategies—giving you tools you can use immediately in your classes.

Perfect for:
Pilates instructors, teacher trainees, and movement professionals working in a group setting.
