Split Pedal Chair Online Certification

$785.00

The Split-Pedal Chair is a multifunctional Pilates machine that can be adjusted to train most muscle groups. This sturdy piece of equipment helps the exerciser achieve upper and lower body, strength and conditioning, enhance stability and improve body control.

The Split Pedal Chair is especially good for upright functional re-training and can perform an essential element of many rehabilitation and fitness programs. Often considered the second piece of equipment, after the reformer. Many smaller studios chose the Split Pedal Chair, understanding its importance within a program, or as a stand-alone apparatus is essential.

APPI’s Split Pedal Chair course will take you through an enormous variety of exercises and the in depth reasoning behind each exercise. We will analyse each exercise to look at the clients performance of the movement, any dysfunction that we may see and how to assess and manage this to lead your client back to full health and wellness. The course will progress the exercises from beginner all the way to full strength and conditioning exercises.

You can take this course individually as its own certification. Once the course is completed, you can take an online exam to become an APPI Certified Split Pedal Chair Pilates Instructor. You will have 2 weeks access to the course content which you can watch as many time as you like and at your own pace. Following completion of the course you can take 1 practical exam in order to become an APPI Split Pedal Chair Certified Pilates Instructor.

The Split Pedal Chair is currently one of the fastest growing group exercise classes in the USA due to its huge versatility, but relatively low cost and small space occupancy that the chair delivers to a studio. Exercises range from standing, to sitting, to kneeling and even lying, be it across the chair or on the mat and using the chair for added difficulty and resistance.

Workshops will develop and refine visual, tactile, audio cueing, 1:1 program planning, home exercise program planning and group teaching. Students will develop their skills and confidence to become comprehensive and articulate teachers. The course will look at individual teaching and 1:1 program planning as well as discuss how to run mixed studio sessions where you incorporate other pieces of equipment into a group session.
