SUMMARY:PMA Educates: 'Training Professional Athletes' Part 3
DESCRIPTION:PMA Educates Workshop Series:\n‘The Science and Critical Nuances of Training Professional Athletes’\nAugust 9\, 16 & 23\, 2023 – 2:00pm PST / 5:00pm EST\nClick here to register now!\n\nProfessional athletes continue to focus on ways they can more efficiently control their bodies while remaining healthy throughout the season. Pilates trains the athlete to be dynamically stable while integrating seamlessly into their training protocol. As a Pilates-certified instructor teaching in this professional environment\, there are a variety of important nuances you’ll want to master to ensure optimal success. \nIn this series\, you’ll learn about the relationship between the scientific testing and assessments performed in professional sports and why this process is so critical in setting the foundation for an optimized Pilates training plan. When working with athletes\, efficiency of movement is paramount for success both on the field and in helping to reduce the risk of injury. You will learn how footwork directly relates to harnessing ground reaction forces; the importance and integration of proximal stability (IAP); and insights and impacts of proper kinematic sequencing. \nFinally\, you’ll explore why/how exercise set up is as important as the exercise itself; you’ll develop innovative\, highly effective training progressions; and you’ll learn how to seamlessly incorporate external cuing. \nSeries Registration: PMA Members: $75 / Non-members: $95\nIndividual Workshops: PMA Members: $35 / Non-members: $45\nAttendees of this PMA Educates Workshop Series will receive 4.5 NPCP-CECs. Registrants must attend or view the entire series to receive CECs; CECs will not be provided for individual workshops. Each individual workshop recording will be made available for registrants to view for up to 72 hours after that session.\n  \nWorkshop #3: August 23\, 2023\n‘Common Injuries in Rotational Athletes – Pilates Training Protocols to Help the Athlete Stay in the Game’\n\nWhen an athlete incurs an injury\, the physical location of the injury is often impacted by dysfunction below or above the injury site. If the athlete lacks the ability to segment their spine or has a past injury\, this may be a precursor for future injury. Additionally\, poor foot/ankle function\, compromised hip internal rotation\, kyphosis\, and immobile scaps\, may be the cause of hip\, lumbar\, and elbow injuries. \nAs part of the Strength & Conditioning team you will need to consider the athlete’s other physical workloads\, playing time\, and travel; all of which will contribute to your successful training protocols. \nIn this workshop\, participants will: \n\nLearn about the most common injuries in rotational athletes;\nExplore best practices to help reduce the risk of injuries;\nUnderstand the relationship between thoracic mobility and shoulder / elbow injuries.\n\nWorkshop #1: August 9\, 2023 – ‘The Body is a Chain Reaction – If it Doesn’t Transfer it Doesn’t Matter’\nWorkshop #2: August 16\, 2023 – ‘Proximal Stability – Why it is Essential for Peak Performance’\nClick here to register now!\n  \nMeet Katherine Roberts:\n\n\n\nKatherine Roberts\, founder of Human Performance Pilates\, a division of Katherine Roberts Human Performance for SportsTM is a leader in incorporating Pilates into her athletes’ strength and conditioning programming. As a multidisciplinary movement specialist\, her clients including those in Major League Baseball\, value her expertise especially in the area of Pilates\, well- evidenced by her 16th season working with MLB players. \nHer paramount goal is to help athletes and sports enthusiasts achieve maximum performance. Additionally\, Roberts is founder of Yoga for Golfers® and has YFG certified instructors in 24 countries who share her sought-after methodology. Roberts is a Nike Swoosh Elite Athlete and Advisory Staff Member. She’s also an engaging speaker. Well-informed and witty\, she’s a natural presenter who enjoys sharing knowledge while interacting with her audience at events spanning crowds of 500 to 5000. \nHer cutting-edge approach integrates Pilates\, yoga\, science\, and proprietary sports conditioning strategies into one powerful regimen that resonates well with athletes wanting to improve their performance. \nRoberts’ qualifications include a series of professional certifications: Advanced Classical Pilates\, Yoga E-RYT\, Gray Institute for Functional Transformation (GIFT) Fellow with a specialty in Chain Reaction Biomechanics. She’s also certified in TPI\, FMS\, PRI\, and CHEK Golf Biomechanics.

When working with athletes\, the concept of proximal stability can have significant benefits for performance for all your rotational athletes. \nProper ribcage positioning has a direct impact on distal efficiency. Learn why creating “tension” in the core provides the athlete with a sense of control over their rotational movements. We will deconstruct the best exercises for proximal strength while also focusing on impactful and efficient breathing techniques. \nIn this workshop\, participants will: \n\nLearn why proximal stability and ribcage positioning are important for performance;\nWhat is facial tension and why it has an impact on generating power;\nUnderstand topics such as shoulder to hip disassociation\, HIP IR / ER\, and learn specific exercises targeting these essential movement skills.\n\nWorkshop #1: August 9\, 2023 – ‘The Body is a Chain Reaction – If it Doesn’t Transfer it Doesn’t Matter’\nWorkshop #3: August 23\, 2023 -‘Common Injuries in Rotational Athletes – Pilates Training Protocols to Help the Athlete Stay in the Game’\nClick here to register now!\n  \nMeet Katherine Roberts:\n\n\n\nKatherine Roberts\, founder of Human Performance Pilates\, a division of Katherine Roberts Human Performance for SportsTM is a leader in incorporating Pilates into her athletes’ strength and conditioning programming.

SUMMARY:PMA Educates: Rotation Station
DESCRIPTION:PMA Educates: Rotation Station\nMay 12th\, 2023 – 11:00am-2:00pm PST / 2:00-5:00pm EST\nClick here to register now!\nTime to dust off those rotator discs! This theoretical and embodied experience is focused on giving participants the opportunity to feel and understand the rotator cuff and the deep six lateral rotators of the hip. In this workshop participants review the anatomy of these “rotation stations” in the body and consider how balance and tone in these areas supports increased performance in the Pilates Method. We look at passive mobilization of arm in the shoulder and the leg in the hip. We use small balls to identify and release patterns of tension. We learn the value of isometric activity and examples of isometric\, concentric\, and eccentric activity for both the rotator cuff and the hip. In the second half of the workshop we apply this understanding to a beautiful and flowing class on the rotator discs. The class includes quadruped\, seated\, prone\, plank\, supine\, and standing variations that draw from both classical and contemporary Pilates exercises. Participants are recommended to have a theraband\, a pinkie ball or other small ball\, and a set of rotator discs. \nThe workshop recording will be made available to registered individuals to view after the session and will expire after 72 hours.\nRegistration: PMA Members: $50 / Non-members: $65 \nAttendees of PMA Educates: Rotation Station will receive 3.0 NPCP-CECs. \n\nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nBecome intimately acquainted with the location\, function\, and feeling of firing the rotator cuff and the deep six lateral rotators of the hip.\nLearn satisfying and innovative vocabulary on the rotator discs with takeaways for practitioners at all levels.\nConsider how to progress a client in healing and/or strengthening the rotator cuff and deep six rotators through a variety of functional movement strategies.\n\nClick here to register now!\n\n  \nThis PMA Educates workshop sponsored by OPTP.\nOPTP has expended an offer to PMA Members of $5 off pairs of the OPTP Pro Rotating Discs\nTo purchase\, visit https://www.optp.com/Pro-Rotating-Discs and use the discount code: ROTATION5.  Only valid on SKU #499.
