What is Module 3?
Module 3: Scolio-Pilates Case Study & Mentorship

The Scolio-Pilates case study is an in-depth project that will let us know what you have learned about Scolio-Pilates thus far and where your questions still exist. Then, the Scolio-Pilates Mentorship is 4 days, 24 hours, of Scolio-Pilates in-depth instruction.

  • Review the positioning and wedging techniques from Module 2 while adding to your understanding with more details about how we can encourage the scoliosis spine towards a more neutral patterning.
  • Understand the breathing techniques that can be applied to your scoliosis clients as they are either resting or active to open up the space of the lungs to encourage healthy pulmonary function.
  • Take a deeper look at how scoliosis impacts the connective tissue and how the connective tissue impacts the scoliosis, making these two systems work together instead of in opposition.

Pricing Options

Payment Plan: For the payment plan you must enroll for Module 3 by May 1, 2025 to ensure all payments have been made one month before the start of the course.

Frequently Asked Questions
No, to be an Authorized Scolio-Pilates Practitioner, you must be a professional in your field of movement or therapeutic exercise. Pilates Instructors and Physical Therapists are acceptable professions. If you are a professional in some other form of movement or health management techniques, please ask us about attendance. Email: [email protected].
You must first attend Scolio-Pilates Module 1, followed by the Scolio-Pilates Module 2. After attending these two courses, you can register for the Scolio-Pilates Mentorship. There must be 6-12 months between your Scolio-Pilates Module 2 and your Scolio-Pilates Module 3, The Mentorship so that you have time to practice what you learned in your first two modules. When you register for Scolio-Pilates Module 3, you will receive a sample case study that you will use as a model to complete your case study. This case study is part of your application to attend Scolio-Pilates Module 3. When your application is accepted, you can then attend the Mentorship. After Module 3, you will have more work to do to complete your case study.
The case study is essentially a very thorough report of the work you performed with one scoliosis client/patient. You will see this client for 10 visits and report on what you did, the progress you made, questions you have, and where you want to go next with this client. Please see the sample case study to help you perform this task.
There are many. To name a few, you will be part of an active community board where you can ask questions of Karena or the other practitioners to help you when you run into questions or need advice with clients or patients.
You will be part of a quarterly online meeting to refresh your knowledge and skills of scoliosis and Scolio-Pilates. You will be invited to assist at Scolio-Pilates Modules 1, 2 and 3. Eventually, you may even be eligible to teach the Scolio-Pilates Modules 1 and 2 through our advanced teacher training program.
Yes, and YES! This is a very under-served population. For several of our practitioners, it becomes the biggest percentage of their clientele once they begin seeing scoliosis clients. We need more practitioners with a passion for serving this underserved population!
It’s going to be REALLY fun! It’s also going to be a lot of work. Be ready! Bring your critical thinking and your questions. The entire journey of becoming an Authorized Scolio-Piates Practitioner can be just over a year-long process, but the rewards are great.

Testimonials

“I just want to thank you for all of the work you have done and continue to do. I do not personally have scoliosis, but I have worked with many clients over the years that do. Your work and information have educated me in a way that allows me to give my clients an appreciation for their bodies, belief that change is possible, and an improvement in their day-to-day quality of life. Thank you so much.”

“Just wanted to let you know that Scolio-Pilates has had a major impact on my life. Today I was measuring my kids’ height and measured myself. I grew 1.5 inches!!! 2.5 years ago, when I went to the doctor for my back (when I was in pain), I was 5’6. I had shrunk 1 inch, and he said it is normal with time. The rods tend to bend. Today, I was 5’7″ and a half! Half an inch taller than I ever was. The impact you have had on my life is beyond words. Thank you!!! Can’t wait to get my own path of helping people feel better!”
