THE WALL
The Wall Exercises can be very beneficial for clients with shoulder problems, & scoliosis. Great for everyone,
they can be a nice way to end a workout. These are also good homework exercises for clients to practice on their
own..
Arm Circles w / Weights Reps: 5-10 each direction
This exercise is good for strengthening the shoulders while working on shoulder stability. Stand in a V position with
the feet. Shoulders, hips, and the entire spine against the wall. Feet may need to be away from the wall to find this
position. Use the Abdominals to lift and press the spine towards the wall. Holding light hand weights, keep the
shoulders down and back against the wall throughout the exercise. Be sure to keep good spine alignment, ears over
shoulders, shoulders over hips. If a client has kyphotic posture, the head will not be against the wall.
Inhale and lift the weights in front of the body and up overhead as far as possible, keeping shoulders down,
and the spine to the wall. Open the arms slightly wider than the shoulders, and exhale as the arms lower
back to the starting position. Repeat 3-5 times.
Reverse the circle. Inhale, open the arms and lift overhead. Bring the arms together and exhale as they
lower to the legs. Repeat 3-5 times.
Modifications/Variations
1. Begin this exercise without weights for some clients with shoulder problems.
2. Lift the arms only as high as comfortable so as not to aggravate the shoulders.
Work up to a larger range of motion.
3. Vary the internal/external rotation of the arm to reduce grinding and popping
at the shoulders.
Watch For
The powerhouse remains engaged. Spine stays close to the wall. Shoulders stay down and
back against the wall as the arms lift and circle. Arms work within the frame of the body
dont open wider than the shoulders.

THE WALL
Rolling Down Reps: 1-3
This exercise is great for clients with shoulder problems and/or scoliosis. It helps teach articulation of the spine,
proper use of the Abdominals, and the release of neck and shoulder tension.
Starting posture is the same as Arm Circles.
Inhale, stand tall and vertical with the arms hanging by the sides holding light weights ( 1-3 lbs). Let gravity
and the weights take the shoulder tension. Exhale, begin from the top of the head and roll down peeling the
spine away from the wall one vertebra at a time. Keep the navel pulling to the spine as the body rolls down.
Roll to down and hold. If going way, the low back should be the last thing to leave the wall. Hold this
position.
Breathing naturally, let gravity and momentum circle the arms 5-10 times in one direction, then the other.
Be sure to keep the neck and shoulders relaxed. Stop the circles and let the arms hang straight to the floor.
Inhale and hold. Exhale and begin with the lower part of the stomach, and roll back up one vertebra at a
time. The lower back should come in contact with the wall first, and everything stays on the wall as the
spine stacks back to a vertical position. Let the arm and shoulder tension drop as the body rolls back up.
Watch For
Smooth articulation through the spine. Neck and shoulder tension released.

THE WALL
Squats Reps: 3-5
This exercise is great for strengthening the knees. Be sure alignment is correct, and body weight is evenly
distributed over both legs. Both of the Squat exercises are great for ski conditioning.
Stand with the legs hip width apart, knees and toes facing straight forward (parallel). Shoulders and
Sacrum should be against the wall. Maintain a neutral spine position with the abdominals engaged. The
feet should be far enough away from the wall that as the knees bend they do not go past the toes. Lift the
arms in front of the body, to shoulder height. Hold this position and slide down the wall into a squat. 45 to
90 degrees is appropriate. Never lower than 90 degrees. Hold this position 15 seconds to 1 minute or longer.
Engage the Gluteasl and pull the navel to spine to slide back up.
Modifications/Variations
1. This can be done with or without weights.
2. For clients with shoulder problems leave the arms by the sides.
3. More Advanced lift the arms overhead.
Watch For
Be sure that throughout the exercise the knees stay aligned over the ankles. Maintain a neutral
spine. Use the Gluteals to lift the body from the squat position.
Breath Naturally.
Squats 1 Leg Reps: 1-3
This one is more of a challenge! Maintain the same posture as the Squat on two legs. Extend one leg out in
front of the body, hip height if possible. The supporting leg may need to move toward the midline of the
body to help balance. Keeping the extended leg horizontal to the floor, slide the back down the wall, and
slide back up. Never go lower that 90 degrees. Be sure that the hips and shoulders stay squared and against
the wall. Repeat other leg.
Breath Naturally.

The Handweight Series
WT-2
Copyright MM by Aliesa George & Centerworks

Pilates Institute Supplemental Exercise Manual - http://www.CenterworksPilates.com


WEIGHT SERIES
The hand weight exercises should be done with 1-3 pound weights. Up to 5 pounds for men. These exercises are
beneficial for clients who need upper body conditioning. It is not necessary to teach the entire series. Begin with the
exercises that are most beneficial for the client. The hand weight exercises are good to teach as homework, as they
are something that clients can learn, then do on their own.
Modifications/Variations
1. Begin teaching the exercises without weights. Teach proper alignment, technique, and muscle
Recruitment then add weights.
2. Use caution with clients who have shoulder problems.
3. Clients with scoliosis can do the exercises with a lighter weight (1 lb.) in the strong arm, and a heavier
weight (2 lb.) in the weaker arm to help correct muscle imbalance.
4. Advanced clients can do all exercises on relevae. Depending on the exercise, either rise up on the toes
and lower with each repetition, or rise up on the toes and stay up while doing the exercise.
For Triceps Press Flat, Swimming, & The Bug
5. Beginners hinge with a flat back position to a forward diagonal.
6. Intermediate/Advanced hinge with a flat back to a table-top position. The body should be
horizontal to the floor.
7. A soft bend at the knees will make the exercise easier, ideally, the legs are straight with the
body weight over the balls of the feet.
Watch For
Maintain shoulders down and relaxed stabilized throughout each exercise. Keep a light grip on the
weight. Maintain the body in a tall, forward position. Body weight should be more over the balls of the feet,
evenly distributed between the big and little toes. Use the Abdominals to support the work and maintain
good alignment. Work in a slow, controlled manner using the muscle not momentum. Wrists should
remain straight unless otherwise noted. Elbows should never be in a locked position.

MAGIC CIRCLE
The Magic Circle is a supplemental piece of equipment. It assists with strengthening the arms, chest, shoulders,
back, legs, and neck with isometric exercises. Be sure this is not the only means of strengthening you give clients.
Work through a full range of motion is preferable.
Arm Work: Place the palms of the hands on the pads. Fingers remain extended. Thumbs should always be with
the fingers. A tight grip with the hands to hold the Circle is unnecessary. Arms reach away from
the body. Elbows straight but not locked. Maintain shoulder stabilization. Avoid neck and shoul-
der tension. To press the Circle together use the entire arm. Teach the Squeeze and hold first, to
learn correct alignment and muscle recruitment. Clap when good alignment can be maintained.
Standing Arms
Front Middle: Squeeze and hold 3 counts, then release Reps: 3-5, 10 claps
Front Low: Squeeze and hold 3 counts, then release Reps: 3-5, 10 claps
Front High: Squeeze and hold 3 counts, then release Reps: 3-5, 10 claps
Watch For
Thumbs on the same side of the handles as the fingers. Powerhouse engaged. Bodyweight over the
balls of the feet. Shoulders remain down and back while squeezing the circle. Use the whole arm to
squeeze. Elbows should be slightly bent throughout the exercise, but not bend more while pressing
the circle together.

MAGIC CIRCLE
Neck Strength: The Circle is an excellent tool for neck strength. Use caution, and keep repetitions low 1-3 repeti-
tions MAX. Doing too much can injure the clients that need this the most.
Neck Strengthening
At the Forehead: Place the MC pad against the forehead. Hold the Circle at horizontal with both
hands. Maintain the head and neck up tall, ears over shoulders. Hold the head
still and gently press with the hands to flex the Circle. Repeat 1-3 reps.
Side of the Head: Place the MC pad above the ear on the right side of the head. Hold the Circle at
horizontal with the right hand. Maintain the head and neck tall, ears over shoul-
ders. Hold the head still and gently press the hand towards the head. Repeat 1-3
reps. Change sides to repeat the exercise on the opposite side.
With a Wall
Forehead: Place the MC pad against the forehead and the opposite pad against a wall. Keep
the body in a strong, straight line. Lean forward from the ankles to press against
the Circle. Hold several seconds, then release. Repeat 1-3 times.
Side: Place the MC pad above the ear on the side of the head. Keep the body in a strong,
straight line. Lean forward from the ankles to press against the Circle. Hold
several seconds, then release. Repeat 1-3 times. Change sides to repeat the exer-
cise on the opposite side.
Back: Place the MC pad securely against the back of the head. Keep the body in a strong,
straight line. Lean backwards from the ankles to press against the Circle. Hold
several seconds, then release. Repeat 1-3 times.
Modifications/Variations
1. Use extreme caution. It may not feel like much at the time. Never more than 3 repetitions.
2. Begin with manual resistance, add the Circle when correct alignment is understood.
Watch For
It is very important that the head stays in alignment, ears over shoulders. Either the hand presses
the Magic Circle towards the head, or the entire body leans into the Circle. Engage the power-
house. Keep the shoulders down and relaxed.

FEET
Footwork exercises are beneficial for everyone, but can be especially helpful for clients with flat feet, ankle
inversion/eversion, bunions, or anyone that needs to improve leg alignment. The following exercises are challeng-
ing for clients with the above mentioned problems, but get easier quickly as the muscles in the feet/arches become
stronger. Use the hands to assist as much as needed when learning the exercises. Eventually, the feet should do all
the work. Footwork exercises are great homework for clients.
Seated Footwork: Begin seated on the floor, or on the edge of a chair. Work with one foot at a time. Do all the
exercises with one foot. For new students, have them stand after doing one foot, and compare the feeling of lift
under the arch and proper standing alignment on the foot. Then repeat the exercises with the other foot.
Knuckles Reps: 3-5
Place the fingers under the ball of the foot and lift up. Keeping the toes lengthened, wrap the
toes around the fingers. Use the thumbs to help press the toes down while lifting up under the
ball of the foot. Try to show all of the knuckles of the foot like you would if you made a fist with
your hand. Hold for 5-10 seconds, release and repeat 3-5 times.
Big Toe Reps: 3-5
Place the foot flat on the floor with the toes pointed straight ahead. Keep the toes on the floor
throughout the exercise. Use one hand to pull the Big Toe towards the midline. Hold the toe still
and sweep the other 4 toes towards the Big Toe, then away. Repeat 3-5 times. Be sure the heel
stays still.
Little Toe Reps: 3-5
Hold the Little Toe and gently pull it away from the body. Repeat the above exercise sweeping
the other 4 toes away from the Little Toe, then towards it. Repeat 3-5 times.

scrunching it up under the arches. Pull for 5-10 repetitions. Then push the towel back out flat
using the toes. Push for 5-10 repetitions. Repeat this Push & Pull 3-5 times. Picking up Pencils
or Marbles also work well for feet strengthening exercises.

alignment corrections should be addressed on the Reformer and with Matwork first. These exercises are also
great for older clients to improve balance and strength standing.

This can be done in the traditional V-position, or parallel. Stand in the selected position. Keep
the weight towards the ball of the foot, heel lightly touching the floor. Inhale and rise up on the
toes, exhale and lower. Watch leg and ankle alignment both up and down no wobbles.
*Ideally, this exercises should be done on a step or a 2 x 4 so that the heels can lower slightly
below floor level. They can also be done on one leg at a time. Use a wall or barre for balance if
needed.
Watch For
The heels to stay together throughout. Maintain balance and control. Weight evenly distributed
between the big and little toes. Avoid wobbles at the ankle. Maintain a neutral spine.

FEET
Standing Footwork
Prancing in Parallel Reps: 5-10
Prancing can be done slowly to work through the feet, or more quickly to elevate the heart rate.
Lower one heel to the floor, and push through the other foot to a pointed position. Continue
moving, alternating feet. Concentrate on heel ball- toe as the foot lifts off the floor, and toe
ball- heel to return. Work through the feet. The emphasis is UP, a light lifted body.
Balance 1 Leg Reps: 1-3 each leg
Balancing exercises work on control and centering. They are especially beneficial for older
clients. To begin stand on one leg and lift the other up slightly foot by the ankle. Hold as long
as possible. Use a wall or barre if needed until balance is more secure. A V-position will provide
a more stable base of support.
Options for the non-supporting leg:
Knee Front, Knee Side
Straight Leg Front, Side, Back
Attitude Front, Side, Back
More Advanced balance on the toes
Perception & Awareness:
Have clients try to balance with their eyes closed. This can demonstrate how important
our eyes are in providing stability with balance and movement.

Do you ever experience foot pain?
Do your feet ache after a long day at work?
Do you avoid exercising the rest of your body because you
want to keep the pressure off your feet?
Have you been searching for ways to help your feet feel better, but
are having trouble finding the best solution?
It can be complicated, but it doesn't have to be . . .
Here are some of your options for Foot Care:
Depending on your feet, you could schedule a consultation with a podiatrist. Based on the
professional diagnosis of your medical foot specialist, you can make decisions on the most
appropriate plan of action to improve the health of your feet. Some problems might easily be fixed
with surgery.
This can be a quick fix, but any medical procedure is going to be expensive. In addition to the
financial investment you will also have to plan for your recovery it will require time off work,
and time off your feet. Plus there are no guarantees! You face the possibility that the pain you
had, might just be replaced with new or different problems once the procedures are completed.
Your next option might be orthotics, or special arch support inserts for your shoes. These can be
bought off the shelf designed as a one pair fits all (but really each of us have unique and
different feet.)
Or you can pay hundreds of dollars for custom fit inserts that are molded specifically for the
contours of your feet. While arch supports can be very helpful there can be a few drawbacks
here also. Our feet are designed to be strong and flexible, with the ability to adapt as the surfaces
we walk. As your health and posture improve, your feet will change too. If you purchase inserts
that can not be readjusted as your body changes they may at some point make you feel worse
instead of better.
So, before you take drastic measures, schedule surgery, or invest in
expensive inserts, you owe it to yourself to consider learning the exercises
in the Fantastic Feet book that have helped others improve the health of
their ankles, arches and toes!
Relieve Your Foot Pain
Why not start with a safe, simple, economical approach to improving health. Exercises
specifically designed for your feet are detailed in full, complete with illustrations in the
Fantastic Feet.
We spend time exercising every other part of our body but don't do much for our feet. We cram
them into poorly fitting shoes, stand for long hours, pound the pavement to exercises our heart &
lungs, and wear old and beloved favorite shoes that gave up supporting our feet a long time
ago. By learning a simple and fun series of exercises that you can do at home or at work you can
start improving the strength and flexibility of your feet and ankles training the muscles of your feet
and lower legs to provide real support for your bodyfrom the inside out. (cont..)
Treat your feet!
Whether you have flat feet, high arches, bunions, hammer toes, or healthy feet
and you want to keep them that way. . . the FANTASTIC FEET exercises can benefit you.
With only a few minutes of practicing these easy to learn FANTASTIC FEET exercises just
2-3 times a week, you can significantly improve how your feet feel, and enjoy the benefits
of improving your posture from the ground up.
Work at your own pace! There are exercises that are performed lying down, seated and standing
so that you can pick the level that's most appropriate for you, with lots of choices to challenge you
when you're ready for more.
