This has been such an excellent and extremely valuable and worthwhile workshop. Thank you, Marietta, for offering us a session that combines in-depth education, along with practical suggestions for helping to manage multiple pelvic floor issues - and powerful evidence for the value of pelvic floor training in our classes!

Programming With Pelvic Floor Awareness

 

This three-hour workshop gives instructors a clear understanding of pelvic floor anatomy, function, and common dysfunction patterns, including weakness, tightness, prolapse, and incontinence. Participants will explore how intra-abdominal pressure, breath holding, bracing language, and exercise selection can either support or overload this system.

Moving beyond theory, this session focuses on real programming decisions. You will learn how to assess exercises using practical criteria, modify movement patterns without reducing intensity, and design classes that are both strong and pelvic floor aware across land and aquatic environments.

The goal is to build confidence, clarity, and professional responsibility when delivering group exercise.
