Pilates Mastery™ 3.0

The Pilates Mastery™ app, developed by Darien Gold, serves as a valuable mobile resource for individuals engaged in the practice of Classical Pilates. This application is particularly suitable for both students and those pursuing certification, as it thoroughly explores the Contrology technique across three distinct parts.

In Part One, users will find a collection of six mat videos that assimilate mat and apparatus exercises. Darien eloquently demonstrates the underlying principles of the Contrology technique, providing insights aimed at enhancing training sessions. The following routines are explored, emphasizing their foundational importance within the Contrology System:

• The First Seven™
• Classical Intermediate Mat
• Classical Advanced Mat
• Teaser Series
• Short Box Series
• Rowing Series

Part Two introduces the "Pilates in 5" series, where Darien meticulously showcases selected mat exercises alongside their counterparts on specific apparatus. This segment highlights the interconnectedness of mat work and equipment exercises, with detailed cues explaining the rationale behind Joseph Pilates' methodologies.

Part Three consists of the original Gold Talk series, tailored for aspiring Pilates instructors or current teachers aiming to deepen their pedagogical understanding of the Pilates Method. Even students will benefit from this section, gaining clarity on what to expect when selecting their instructors. Darien's intimate recording setting enhances the learning experience, making it feel as though one is directly conversing with her. Insights shared here are derived from her extensive background in teaching over five decades globally.

With an approachable price of $9.99, Pilates Mastery™ is available on the App Store and is compatible with both iPhone and iPad devices.

User Reviews:

“Darien is that rare teacher who flows with grace and beauty in her own Pilates practice, and who also teaches specifically, in detail how to do what she does. Her expertise is levels beyond that of any other teacher I’ve ever seen in person or online. And now, with her new app, it goes with me wherever I go!” — Diane R., Visual Artist

“As a professional dressage rider I've been a longtime student of Darien Gold and have taken her private lessons for years. Since moving away two years ago, I've relied on the Darien Gold Pilates app and it has been just as effective as being with Darien in person. This app has significantly improved my fitness and riding, and I feel like she's right there with me during every session. I highly recommend this app to anyone looking to enhance their practice with the guidance of a master teacher.” — Allison Mathy, Dressage Horse trainer, rider and Gold Medalist

All categories have videos that open with a written explanation that will help you progress with the Pilates Method whether you are a student or a teacher." — J. Vignola, Pilates practitioner
