Pilates and the Shoulder Girdle

By learning to facilitate optimum movement in our client’s shoulder girdle – whether they are healthy, pregnant or post-partum, or even injured – we can help our clients relieve neck pain, shoulder cuff injuries, carpel tunnel syndrome, etc. as well as enhance and deepen their breathing.  We will review key Pilates exercises which access and strengthen the shoulder girdle in order to rehabilitate or to prepare for Level IV-V exercises.
