In this 10-minute tutorial, you’ll explore the difference between optimal, everyday breathing and the more intentional breath patterns used in STOTT PILATES. We look at how each supports the body in different ways—one grounding you through daily life, the other enhancing precision, stability, and whole-body integration during movement.
You’ll learn when and why to use each approach, and how thoughtful breath cueing can influence alignment, coordination, and nervous system regulation. It’s a clear reminder that teaching both forms of breathing gives clients practical tools they can use well beyond the studio.
