Utilizing the Archival Exercises to Build Upper Body Power

In this powerful workshop, we will explore archival Pilates exercises from TPC’s “Lost Treasures” presentation that specifically develop upper body strength.  We will explore where and what the missing links are for most of us in our upper bodies and how we can focus on increasing strength in these areas while doing our Pilates work.  You will learn new exercises as well as learn how to apply them and the insights gained through them to the classical choreography of the Pilates Method.
