In This Webinar: What Fitness Pros Will Learn About Pilates For Older Adults
In this dynamic session, fitness professional and educator Tina McAlpine explores how Pilates can empower older adults (and other clients) to move confidently, maintain independence, and enhance overall quality of life.
You’ll learn how to safely design and modify Pilates exercises for clients of all abilities – including those managing arthritis, osteoporosis, and mobility limitations – while helping them rediscover strength and stability through mindful movement.
In the webinar, Tina covers important topics and information like:
- How Pilates supports balance, posture, and fall prevention in older adults
