Workshops and practical classes are designed for professionals in the field who have their own studios or work in gyms.
The aim of these seminars is to improve the techniques already acquired and to enable instructors to find new elements and solutions to succeed with their students.
During the workshop, all teachers will have their own equipment so as to optimise their time to the uttermost and immediately apply the information covered in theory classes in practical classes.
Tailor-made seminars on the needs of individual instructors to refine the techniques already acquired and find new solutions.
Specialisation workshop
Practical classes in Studio
All Workshops proposed come with a strong practical basis: they concretely develop and refine some of the concepts addressed in the various certification programmes.

Teaching Methodologies II: The art of reading bodies in motion
Reading the body in motion is very difficult and is, at the same time, the secret of this work. Knowing how to do it between one equipment and another while maintaining priorities and “sensing the next evolution” is a fascinating and magical ability. We will dig deeper into the practical applications of the Shape in Space concept through the secrets that I have discovered over the years and that I have learnt from all the teachers and instructors that I have encountered in my journey.

Chair Intensive II: Low Chair as evolution of movement and groups
Making difficult things simple is an art that can be built through the right progression. Raising the level of skill on this equipment also means raising the level of security in teaching. The workshop on the Low Chair is divided into two parts: the first dedicated to progressions of exercises, Spotting and Cueing for individual sessions; the second dedicated to progressions of exercises and sequences of mini-groups to work in depth and under safe conditions with several students at the same time.
