Anatomy Academy

Claire - Pilates Collective Owner

Your presentation exceeded my expectations, and the entire team is buzzing with excitement today. The way you delved into detailed content while making it digestible and easily applicable for our instructors was truly impressive. Your straightforward approach to group classes resonated with us, reinforcing the importance of simplicity.

From your training, everyone, including myself, gained valuable new insights and practical applications. Beyond the knowledge, the workshop has significantly boosted team morale, and I am grateful for the opportunity to provide this experience for them. Our members and prospects will undoubtedly benefit from the workshop, as we are now more confident in supporting various injuries and conditions while maintaining the quality of our group classes.

Thank you once again. I would highly recommend you to anyone seeking a team workshop to further educate their instructors in anatomy, injury, and pathologies.

This is so good for our trainers because now we both as owners have the confidence knowing that they are going to be looking after all the clients for us. They all now know the modifications for different injuries, conditions, and things like pre & postnatal which everyone needs to be upskilled in. 

There are constantly changing do's & don'ts in the industry - with this course, she keeps us up to date on the latest literature.

So for our girls who may have done their course a couple of years ago, we all need to stay up to date. This course really gave us the knowledge that we need to give to our clients every day (with over 10-12 classes a day). That is hundreds of people coming through our doors.

We need to feel confident in our girls (instructors) so we know our clients are getting their care and support they need.

Thanks you Kira for your online tutorial from our team, it was really well structured and well explained and we were able to ask questions to Suit our needs.

We loved how the handbook was laid out so we could focus on certain elements. We really could have talked and asked questions for hours it was so enjoyable I can highly recommend Kira-leigh she is an experienced and skilled clinician.

The course has allowed the team to build their knowledge base and be better therapists and instructors!

We found that even though Kira-Leigh is a Physio and she has all this knowledge but she delivered that information to us as trainers - bringing all sorts of layman's terms so we can clearly understand it.

She put all the concepts, injuries, and their modifications into really easy-to-understand - the way she spoke about the body and movement was relatable.

She was really relatable as a teacher so putting that towards a room full of trainers - was really enlightening.

We all loved the course!

I did Kira-Leigh’s anatomy workshop for reformer instructors. As a newly qualified instructor I used to panic when clients told me that they were pregnant or had injuries like a disc bulge or shoulder pain, because I had a lesson plan that I’d created, with injuries it meant I often ended rushing to change the plan last minute to suit everybody.

Kira-Leigh explained all common injuries so thoroughly and simply, showing us all how to adjust movements to suit these clients. Following her training, I feel so much more confident teaching without the panic and without having to change my lesson plan completely.

She showed us how to modify and progress movements, whilst allowing the other clients to enjoy a class too, and gave us a space to ask her questions on other issues that we have faced. I couldn’t recommend this training enough for instructors of all experience levels!

Sana - Tempo Pilates Sydney

I loved Kira’s anatomy workshop so much I’ve now done it twice!

The course covers everything you need to know about not only knowing the anatomy and understanding how injuries occur but also how to modify around them and it just makes you feel so much more confident as an instructor knowing I can modify and make sure everyone with or without injuries gets the most out of my classes. We covered injuries, prenatal, postnatal and so much more and I just feel so empowered knowing that I’ll know exactly how to modify without changing my class plan completely.

Kira explains everything super simple so everyone understands and made us do the exercises and feel the difference with different modifications which made it make sense even more! Would highly recommend every instructor to do the Anatomy workshop!

Yvette - Vive Active Brookvale Owner

We have so many clients that come to class with tennis elbow, slipped disc, bulging disc, torn meniscus - plus everything else we talked about!

We just feel so much more equipped to understand what they're going through and know what their can & can'ts are in class.

So thank you so much that was amazing.

Sarah - Vive Active Brookvale Owner

I thought it was amazing in the way - you just delivered to the girls and how you are able to explain everything with such relatable terminology.

Just being able to dumb it down for us to be able to explain it to the clients who might not even understand it.

I just believe it was really helpful even just refreshing our knowledge!

Bianca - Base Pilates Owner

Our workshop with Kira-Leigh was incredible. Kira-leigh is incredibly knowledgeable and breaks everything down into an easy to understand format and provided our team with some great take-aways. 

We were given easy to remember modifications to be able to further help all of our clients participate in our classes without restrictions. It was great to get our trainers all on the same page relating to how to modify for injured and pre/postnatal clients..

We got a lot out of the afternoon and I would recommend any studio thinking about doing this workshop to do it with confidence.

Laura - Mode Pilates Owner

Thank you so much and was so good to have you meet our beautiful team. I thought you delivered it so well, I loved that your technique and tactic where you kind of repeat the same thing in different ways which was so good I think that's so important.

I just wanted to say what you do therefore it was awesome and just coming from like a marketing events kind of background I could just pick up you just I don't know you just came across so well and the way you speak is incredible so you should be so proud of yourself I love what you're doing and it's supporter.

That was awesome thank you so much I would love to make it like either annual biennial thing.

Annie - Street Pilates Owner

Kira’s anatomy workshop was amazing! She not only covered everything in detail but also related it back to how we would us in while teaching a class.

She helps us with understanding how and why injuries and pre/post natal difficulties occur and most importantly how we can modify them for all our clients. 

She was amazing and took the time to explain everything and let us ask questions through. Would absolutely recommend Kira to anyone who is looking for a refresh or to just to upskill.

Anna - Melbourne Pilates 

Our workshop with Kira-Leigh was honestly groundbreaking. I feel 10x more confident teaching pre/post natal clients and have a strong understanding of the how’s and why’s when it comes to instructing and modifying for them. Kira-Leigh is one of the most knowledgeable and switched on physio instructor’s I’ve ever met and I loved meeting her.
