Feel like something is STILL missing?

You’ve taken all the courses, been to all the seminars, and yet there are still clients that you aren’t sure how to help.

Someone may have a neck or spine issue, and maybe even a lot of pain. You feel you can help them, but aren’t sure what to do.

How should I modify this exercise? How should I keep from hurting them?

You want to make things better not worse.

No course taught you this. No manual has a clear solution.

How do you find answers?

Hi I’m Zeina!

People come to me all the time looking for answers. Someone can’t walk properly, or they have back issue nobody can seem to solve. Many instructors look to me for guidance for the same sorts of clients.

How did I get in this position?

As you would expect it wasn’t a common journey. I graduated college thinking I was going to become a psychiatrist, but then I realized I’d be sitting down all day. Instead I wanted to move, and be active.

I became a scuba instructor and then an acrobatic performer. All the people around me pushed their bodies to the limit, and needed to keep in shape or lose their livelyhood. As I learned about the body, I became the person everyone would look to for help when their shoulders were coming out of their sockets!

I always wanted to help people, so I decided to get a masters in physical therapy.

I wanted to know more about how to get people moving and living their best lives.

The knowledge I learned in the program was great, but I quickly grew out of being a traditional physical therapist.

I wasn’t given the time or freedom to get to the root of their problems. If they came in with a knee issue, we could only work with the knee. I knew many problems started elsewhere in the body, but wasn’t allowed to do what I needed.

I decided to strike out on my own, and the rest is history. Now 20 years later I have all sorts of people showing up at my door looking for answers. I’m overjoyed that I can help so many people regardless of where they come from or what they are looking for.

That’s why I’ve put together this program.

I want to help those like myself, to truly help as many people as possible.

It took me many years to get to the level of understanding that I have now. It was a hard road with few people to look to.

I know that there are others out there like me looking for answers.

This membership is meant to be that breakthrough resource that I never had.

I’ll give you direct support with your own clients and challenges so you can overcome them now, instead of spending years fishing around for answers.

I’ll provide constant opportunities for you to learn and grow.

It’s a journey that never ends, and I’m here to walk it with you.

Q&A Sessions

Not sure if a specific exercise can injure a client?

Join our online Q&A session for your chance to ask and client or practice related questions. We’ll discuss the latest Pilates research, and bring up any topic you like. I make sure all questions get answered, no matter how tough!

Monthly Consultations

Every month we can do an complete review of a specific client case that you bring to me.

We’ll cover all the information about the case and build an actionable plan you can use in your specific case. Decode your client’s symptoms and leverage my experience reviewing and working with thousands of cases. All sessions will be recorded and available for you to view as a reference.

Case Study Presentations

Watch me break down an entire case from start to finish.

I’ll review the whole healing process from assessment to solution. All case studies are based on real life cases, so it’s all practical knowledge that you know works.

Weekly Classes and Lectures

Every week we put out lectures & exercise demonstrations on the mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Springboard, Chair, and Barrel.

Go from the very basics to the advanced and learn every modification and contra-indications along the way.

Learn How to Use Anatomy

Most Pilates courses just give you general information about anatomy. It’s up to you to connect the dots.

At Synergy+ we teach you how anatomy relates to each and every exercise. You’ll know what part of the body gets triggered and why.

You’ll be able to see issues that most other instructors can’t. More importantly you’ll be able to address them with highly effective workouts, customized to individual.

Hear what my students have to say

The opportunity to study with Zeina, was an honor. Her training program was very thorough from practice to anatomy to the history of Pilates. Zeina was very generous of time, spirit and knowledge for the zillions of questions that I asked regarding any part of the curriculum.

Allegra Gibson

Certified Pilates Teacher

I was so impressed with Zeina’s clarity and detail in how she presents the exercises-from exactly the way to perform the exercise, to the progressions as well as modifications for nearly any injury.

Laura Winner

DPT & Certified Pilates Teacher

How I’ve helped the people who’ve walked into my studio.

I was referred to Synergy+ by my primary care doctor in Marin, who said that Zeina is the best physical therapist he has encountered in his entire career. He said she has a true talent for understanding the human body and how to heal it. Based on my own experience now, I wholeheartedly agree!

Cynthia M.

Client

Zeina really is the best when it comes to pain management and personal care! To add to her professional strengths, she is a wonderfully sensitive person who listens, individualizes treatment, and follows-up.

I will not forget her saying to me, “I was thinking about you this weekend and I think we need to try this….” That is the voice of a true professional who is passionate for what she does.

The Q&A above applies to all sessions: Q&A, Case Study, and Monthly Hour Client Consult

What are your Pilates and Physical therapy certifications?

I have a client with a specific dysfunction, pain, problem whom I would love to talk to you about but I cannot make it to the live session. What can I do?

In this case, you should send me a video recording of your client/situation or write me all the details about your client, and even send me any doctor’s note or x-ray or anything that you think is important for me to take a look at and I will either contact you directly about your client or even present your case during the live Monthly Client Consultation. The session is recorded and the recording will be available on-demand in our library.

I do not have any questions really to ask that I can think of, and I do not have any clients with dysfunction I should be aware of and pay attention to!

You are lucky! In my experience, even if people say they don’t have any issues, they may have had one in the past that may create problems down the road. My program also teaches Pilates instructors to recognize faulty patterns that can cause future pain if not addressed right away. My program also teaches instructors which exercises in the full Pilates repertoire have the potential to cause pain if not performed correctly.

I have already taken a Pilates for rehab course, so why is this different?

That’s great! However, a rehab course, while it is very useful, usually only covers how to identify and treat general symptoms and dysfunctions. My program offers you collaboration and mentorship striving to help you understand and resolve even the most complex cases. You can even bring your client-specific issue to me to help you resolve it.

I am a physical therapist with no Pilates experience but I would like to learn more. Is this program for me?

Yes, absolutely. In fact, if you are interested in the membership, we have classes that offer lectures and exercise demonstrations beginning with the basic and moving on to the advanced full Pilates repertoire, on the mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Springboard, Chair, and Barrel! You can also opt in to take any of our Pilates certification courses specifically designed for physical therapists and other health & rehab professionals.

I have some experience with Pilates but I am not an instructor. Is this program for me?

Yes, absolutely. In fact, if you are interested in the membership, we have classes that offer lectures and exercise demonstrations that teach Pilates beginning with the basics and moving on to the advanced full Pilates repertoire, on the mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Springboard, Chair, and Barrel! You can also opt in to take any of our Pilates certification courses to become an instructor.
