Myopatterning: Pilates-based technique
to correct physical problems and rehabilitate injury
During the formative years of Artistic Body Development, Michael was teaching kinesiology in the dance department at Colorado College, where he encountered an array of injuries and physical problems experienced by the dancers. He began looking at the causation of these problems (muscle weakness, tightness, imbalance, misuse, etc.) and developed new Pilates type exercises to mechanically correct the problems in a way that traditional Pilates could not. He called this new Pilates-based technique Myopatterning. Myopatterning safely targets and develops every major and minor muscle group in the body through resistance training, cardiovascular work, and stretching, with an emphasis on proper body alignment throughout.
