“Physical fitness is the first requisite of happiness”
Joseph Pilates 

Joseph Pilates believed that in order to achieve happiness you must first become physically fit. If at 30 you are stiff and out of shape are you old? If at 60 you are supple, strong and toned are you young? 

Can you stop the clock through Pilates? 

Ageing is a natural process, but Pilates can assist in slowing down some the ageing process including: 

  • Muscle loss
  • Reduced flexibility and range of movement
  • Reduced balance and falls prevention
  • Reduced bone density
  • Pelvic floor weakening due to menopause and child birth 
  • Accumulation of injuries and illness over a lifetime eg hip and knee replacements, breast cancer, spine degeneration
  • Increased kyphotic posture 

All this and more are covered in the Active Ageing course.

âœłïž Why Teaching Active Agers Requires Specialist Knowledge

Teaching older adults isn’t just modifying for ‘easier’ options—it’s a discipline of its own. Ageing bodies bring unique challenges that require more than just a general Pilates certificate. This course offers the skills you weren’t taught in your initial training. 

📘 What You’ll Learn That Sets You Apart

This course goes beyond basics. You’ll develop:

  • A deep understanding of functional anatomy in the ageing body

  • How to design safe, effective, progressive classes across ability levels

  • Screening tools to help you confidently assess clients including the Berg Balance Scale

  • How to adapt to mobility aids, implants, and chronic conditions

  • The art of layering, pacing, and cueing for cognitive and physical change

  • How to build strength and resilience, not just “stretch and soothe”

  • Strategies to encourage neuroplasticity, independence, and social engagement

  • Practical guidance on balance retraining, fall prevention, and load tolerance

 

đŸ‘©â€đŸ« Teaching Older Adults Is a Specialised Skill—And It’s In Demand

With people living longer but not necessarily stronger, there is an urgent need for skilled movement professionals who can offer:

  • Prevention and performance

  • Strength and support

  • Cognitive and community connection

By learning how to truly support this demographic, you’ll stand out—and make a real difference.

Every person should have the opportunity to live a long and healthy life.

The World Health Orginization states that "The number and proportion of people aged 60 years and older in the population is increasing. In 2019, the number of people aged 60 years and older was 1 billion. This number will increase to 1.4 billion by 2030 and 2.1 billion by 2050. This increase is occurring at an unprecedented pace and will accelerate in coming decades"

WHO also states "Societies that adapt to this changing demographic and invest in healthy ageing can enable individuals to live both longer and healthier lives and for societies to reap the dividends."

Louise is so knowledgeable, engaging and fun, and the materials, resources and tutorials make the courses very worthwhile.
