Become a Pilates Comprehensive teacher and movement educator

Pilates Level 3: CCSB is the final level in the Body Harmonics Pilates Comprehensive Track. It builds on functional movement and the anatomical relationships in the lumbopelvic complex, the four regions of the spine, and the shoulder complex. You learn how how to determine the best course of action based on your clients’ needs—from post-rehab clients to those looking for athletic fine-tuning—using the cadillac, chair, springboard and barrels. Case studies are used to aid in identifying movement issues, determine best practices for addressing them and to assess learning. When you graduate from this illuminating and supportive program you are well-equipped to use all types of Pilates equipment and advanced movement concepts to teach expert one-on-one sessions and group classes.
