WORKSHOP: Building an Effective Modern Pilates Class
BOD. PROGRAMMING METHOD
The Art of Building an Effective Modern Pilates Class
Great classes don’t happen by accident—they’re intentionally programmed.
Join Kylie, founder of BOD., for a 90-minute programming workshop designed to teach instructors how to confidently build effective, intentional, and engaging Modern Reformer and Mat Pilates classes from start to finish.
This workshop breaks down the thought process behind creating a strong class—not simply choosing exercises, but understanding why each movement belongs, how exercises work together, and how to create a class that feels cohesive from beginning to end.
WHAT WE’LL COVER
01 — The Foundation of Programming
Learn the key components every effective Pilates class should consider, including class goals, muscle focus, movement patterns, intensity, pacing, and progression.
02 — How to Build a Class From Scratch
Walk through a step-by-step framework for taking an idea and turning it into a complete, teachable class.
03 — Creating an Effective Exercise Sequence
Learn how to organize movements so exercises flow together intentionally while creating an appropriate challenge and progression for your clients.
04 — Programming for Modern Reformer Pilates
Explore how to program resistance, springs, positioning, tempo, transitions, unilateral work, and progressive fatigue into a modern reformer class.
05 — Programming for Modern Mat Pilates
Learn how to create dynamic mat classes using bodyweight, props, strength work, mobility, and intentional sequencing without sacrificing Pilates principles.
06 — The Art of Layering
Learn how to build intensity through layers, variations, tempo, resistance, range of motion, and complexity—without simply adding more exercises.
07 — Flow, Transitions & Timing
Discover how to create seamless transitions and a class that feels purposeful rather than like a collection of individual exercises.
08 — Programming With Purpose
Learn how to program around specific goals, including strength, endurance, stability, mobility, unilateral training, and muscular fatigue.
09 — Common Programming Mistakes
Identify the mistakes that can make a class feel repetitive, unbalanced, disconnected, or unnecessarily complicated—and how to correct them.
10 — Putting It All Together
Finish the workshop by applying the framework to create your own Modern Pilates class.
YOU’LL LEAVE WITH
• A repeatable framework for programming Modern Reformer + Mat Pilates classes
• A step-by-step approach to writing your own routines
• A better understanding of exercise sequencing and progression
• Tools for creating intentional transitions and class flow
• Strategies for programming strength, endurance, stability, and fatigue
• A framework you can use to create classes that feel challenging, cohesive, and uniquely yours
90 MINUTES | LIVE EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOP
Designed for Pilates instructors, teachers-in-training, and fitness professionals looking to elevate their programming and create more intentional Modern Pilates experiences.
