The Upper Hand - Beginner to Intermediate Matwork
Join in the 15-30+ exercises of the Beginner to Intermediate Series of the Classical Mat. In this workshop you will learn how to deepen the work for yourselves and for your clients, through specific hands-on help. Because the Matwork doesn’t have the benefit of the apparatus for support and feedback, I will teach you how to use your hands to give your client similar feedback. Participants will be able to experience the system from the perspective of both teacher and student by partnering to experience the tactile cueing. Come prepared, work hard, sweat and touch and be touched.
Pandiculation Pilates on the Mat
Feel incredible while improving your Pilates practice! Preventing the build-up of muscular tension is critical to healthy movement but releasing that tension doesn’t happen the way you might think. In this workshop, Brooke will teach you how to call upon your body’s natural pandicular response, during a mat workout, to restore and/or gain more control over your muscles while resetting the level of tension in your muscles. Learn why Joe Pilates called for this action from the body.
EQUIPMENT REQUESTS:
Mats (thicker than a yoga mat - or use 2 yoga mats, one on top of the other)
A small towel.
ABOUT BROOKE:
Brooke Siler began her Pilates training in 1994 under Joseph Pilates’ protégée, Romana Kryzanowska, spending a decade under her masterful tutelage before opening her award-winning Manhattan studio, re:AB Pilates, in 1997. Quickly embraced by Hollywood’s A-list from Madonna to Dustin Hoffman - Brooke rose to international prominence with her New York Times best-seller The Pilates Body, the top-selling Pilates book of all time.
In 2025, she released the revised and expanded second edition of The Pilates Body, building on her legacy as one of the most influential voices in Pilates. Her other titles include Your Ultimate Pilates Body Challenge and The Women’s Health Big Book of Pilates, and in 2021 she launched The Tensatoner™, a fitness teaching tool inspired by two of Joe Pilates’ lost apparatus.
After relocating to the UK in 2015 for her family, Brooke continues to teach independent classes, workshops, courses and conferences worldwide.
She has remained at the forefront of the Pilates community because she remains fiercely passionate, purposeful and authentic in her person and her work.
