A variety of exercises, developed by the Merrithew® team, are discussed, demonstrated and experienced that work both the core and peripheral muscle groups while keeping the body upright. The Flex-Band® exerciser is incorporated into many of the exercises, to provide added light resistance and add variety to this full-body program.

STOTT PILATES® Armchair Pilates™ with Handweights
When working with older exercisers, programs need to be adjusted, sometimes dramatically, to accommodate those with limited mobility. Using light hand-held weights, this workout, developed by the Merrithew® team, targets core strength and stability along with peripheral joint mobilization all from a seated position. Exercises are designed to re-connect mind and body, target and improve the functional capacity of the older participant through graded strength training, proprioceptive awareness and joint range of motion, as well as bring about a general sense of well-being. Discover how to maximize functional health, balance, coordination and flexibility in a workout aimed at keeping the body moving.
Equipment needed: Regular chair (without arm rests if possible) & Small handweights or toning balls

STOTT PILATES® Dynamic Armchair Pilates™
If restricted mobility does not permit a client to lie on the floor or other equipment, this workshop, developed by the Merrithew® team, shows exercise variations in an upright, seated position. In addition to exploring movements incorporating the gentle resistance of the STOTT PILATES® Flex-Band® exerciser, participants work through a number of exercises performed in a supported standing position to help develop balance and coordination.
