Pilates
Did you know that there are a variety of Pilates exercises that go beyond the mat?
Pilates is an innovative form of mind-body exercise and body conditioning, developed from the rehabilitation exercises of Joseph Pilates (1882-1967). This method of condition includes hundreds of exercises for the mat, as well as various pieces of equipment. While mostly known for its emphasis on core work, the exercises in the Pilates repertoire also focus on strengthening & elongating muscles, flexibility, mobility, and facilitating optimal movement.
​
The entire body is trained, rather than isolating different muscle groups.
Many find Pilates as a great way to stay in top shape and achieve good health, where people often report improvements in posture and a decrease in their aches and pains.
​
Despite the misconception that Pilates is primarily for women, Pilates is for every body - regardless of gender, age, race, size, ability, or current fitness level. Athletes, fitness buffs, dancers, and physical therapy patients alike have turned to Pilates for more than 50 years. With hundreds of exercises and variations in the repertoire, Pilates can be enjoyed by everyone, whether you have a sedentary lifestyle, are pregnant, have anxiety or stress, or are undergoing rehab. It is a comprehensive system that can be both gentle and intense, benefitting people of all ages and abilities.

How it works?

After the Initial Assessment, most clients continue to attend a regular weekly schedule to feel the very best results (one or twice a week).
